So please your American ignorance is showing through....perhaps you should lay off the Disney movies for a while. I'm English, live in England and despise Disney movies. Remarkably enough living in the UK I don't get to watch the CBC. A search of a few on-line video distributors didn't find the program on video for me to purchase. So no, I haven't seen it. Are you suggesting the CBC website has been hijacked, or that what they say there is a cunning double-bluff? I would like to see it though. It sounds most interesting. Unethical as it is I'd be willing to download a high-quality digital recording of it if you can point me to one (by email if you prefer). Tim -- My last .sig was rubbish too. |

Don't any of you guys think for yourselves or are you all sycophants? Sycophants to WHOM, pray tell? To what you consider to be the big arse you must kiss so that you can be admited into the big arse club of the neo-scientific stone age cavemen. The US government openly admitted recently that the moon pictures were hoaxed on the direct order of President Nixon. And to top it all off, Stanley Kubrick is the man responsible for the moon landing hoaxed pictures. In fact nothing was televised from the moon missions to any home in the entire world. What people watched was made in a studio. I'm sorry... please point me to the government documents and/or offiicials who "openly admitted" the moon pictures were hoaxed. Names please, not "unnamed" or "highly placed" sources. Againn go to the CBC and ask them. Is that so hard? I daresay none of us have a copy of this documentary to hand, so could you just be a good chap and tell us what you think it said? By the by, I'm pretty certain that if the US govt. had officially admitted to faking the Apollo programme, When did I say the Apollo programme itself was hoaxed? Please quote me on that please do. it would have been front page news in every country in the world, so even here in Ukay I'm surprised I missed it. Ian Again for those who need it spelled out for them.....take an H, take an A, take an O, take an X, put them together,....what does that spell? Um, HAOX? Hoax right? Now take a V, take an I, take a D, take an E, and take an O, and put them together ok? What does that spell? Video...right. Now take a P, take an I, take a C, take a T, take an I, take an R, take an E, take an S, and put that together...what does that spell? PICTIRES? Gee. this is fun. Pictures..right....now we are getting somewhere. Do you understand yet, or do you still need it spelled out for you? Well, I got HAOX VIDEO PICTIRES. In which of these HAOX VIDEO PICTIRES does the government of the USA make an official announcement that NASA faked the moon shots, or parts thereof?
