The truth is they had no way of knowing for sure what discolored that trench or what was ponding at the bottom. Wind and dust is just a catch-all. If their attitude is, we know and if you don’t too bad little man, then they deserve all the conspiracy theories they get and they will generate plenty.

Dfrank, I really don't understand you. You have stated that your ideas about water in images are speculation, yet you also condemn NASA for not basing their decisions on your personal speculation.

If NASA actually did think there was running water, why would they, in your opinion, not want to investigate it?
