They love this type of recycling insults and they will never stop, because they cant stop because they are slaves. If we're looking for a "slave to insults without stopping" you have proved yourself at the top of _that_ food chain. |

It was a blatant assertion of fact, as I've reproduced above. People often respond strongly to allegations of fact that are ill-founded. I asked you befo how many lies are too many? How much crapola should we allow to persist before saying something about it? What about "getting a life" requires us to ignore people who impugn our professions, mentors, or beliefs? I'd just add here that the main reason I responded is that I find these assertions regarding Apollo genuinely offensive. The "Moon Hoax" is one of those conspiracy theories that is quite appealing and it has gained quite common currency; in these cynical times it's normal (and it has to be said, too frequently normally right) to question our governments; so many people who are disaffected with politics will find great comfort in believing that a government faked the most impressive achievement of the last century. I was glad that Buzz Aldrin thumped that moon hoaxer who accosted him; and can quite imagine how enormously angry he and the others involved must feel to have their whole achievement questioned, and to be accused of being the most appalling liars. This isn't the Face On Mars or Ancient Astronauts or such; this is a serious attempt to wipe from the history books a truly spectacular moment in human history. Many conspiracy theories seem to be about tearing down the achievements of others (e.g. David Hockney's ludicrous "all the old artists cheated with mirrors and lenses" ********[1], which has sadly gained even more acceptance than the Moon Hoax nonsense). Is this the best we can do as we embark on this latest millennium; attack and denigrate the greatness achieved in the past? I've never achieved anything remotely comparable to what we're discussing here and never will; but I am happy to admire those who did and vicariously participate by watching the films, looking at the photos, reading about it and discussing it. It makes me angry that so many other people are so jealous that they can't do the same. /rant Ian _____ [1] Also based upon "anomalies" (in paintings rather than pictures), jealousy (they couldn't have painted that well) and a conspiracy theory (there is no primary evidence because hundreds of artists for hundreds of years cloaked their methods in total secrecy). |

Dust doesnt leave footprints. And you have wide experience of making footprints in fine material in low-gravity vacuum environments, and can therefore authoritatively state this. Yeah ok, moon dust has the consistency of mud due to its low gravity and lack of an atmosphere. Um, so snow, being able to retain a footprint, also has the consistency of mud, does it? Ian |
