I would also be interested to see your calculations about how much water would survive such an impact in the debris, and please include the initial abundance of chemically bound water, e.g., in clay, compared to trapped water, when the impact occured. I look forward to your analysis. Hey, this Earth origin Moon is your theory. Shouldn't you be the one supplying those calculations in support of it? But hey, don't break a sweat. I'm not holding my breath! Another person that dares question the holy saucerhead writ. You'd better run away and put him in the "stowfile", too.
