Can someone speak with the voice of authority and compare the G-forces
experienced by the shuttle astronauts with those felt by the Apollo
astronauts?  Did the Saturn-V have a much bigger "kick"?  Isn't the shuttle
lift-off assembly a lot lighter than the Saturn-V and thus maybe accelerates
faster?
