Hmmmm, must be because I do have an account there and I'm apparently never logged out. I did specifically look for a "log out" link somewhere and didn't find one before I posted the link here. Anyway, here's another link to a copy:

Flight manual for the X-15
1: Wait for drop.
2: Push the button.
3: Hold on tight.
4: Have a spare set of underwear readily available.
The people who “Flew” the X-15 were either the bravest of the brave or totally and completely Bat $h!t crazy!
Perhaps they were both.

The pilot on 10/3/67 was Pete Knight. His full name was William J. Knight and I guess that's which his signature is with Pete under it.
The other signature is most likely Robert White because he wrote his altitude in feet that works out to be the 59.6 miles listed in a Wikipedia article.
