It seems to be common among HBs to use two or more different pseudonyms on the same board. Curious.
This is different. Karamoon announced his name change on the Apollohoax board where, at the time, he was concentrating most of his attention. He stopped using the name "Squirm" entirely, which he felt may have conveyed overtones he did not wish to convey. Unlike Carrot Cruncher a.k.a. Slime a.k.a. CC a.k.a. several "throwaway" pseudonums, Karamoon is not trying to appear as if he is different people.

Thanks, Jay. I was probably on my sabbatical from Apollohoax when that happened. I didn't mean to imply anything sinister - it's just that it becomes hard to trace the discussion with an individual when their ID changes. I'm pleased that Karamoon avoided creating that problem - my oversight that I missed his announcement.
[q]Von Braun was a fine engineer, but I don't know if he would have recognized a lunar meteorite if one fell on him. [/q]
And if there were a plan to surreptitiously gather meteorites from Antarctica and pass them off as "Apollo rocks", why would NASA raise suspicion by having their chief rocket engineer go anywhere near Antarctica. The whole scenario fails on technical, logistical and "optics" grounds.
