Well, Andrew, that's a very good point. The whole whistle-blower notion is based on two premises:

(1) that the alleged whistle-blows (hundreds of them) were too subtle to be noticed by NASA inspectors and/or the U.S. intelligence community; and

(2) that the whistle-blowers had to resort to this method of communication because directly blowing the whistle would have gotten them killed.

If you're willing to kill someone in order to keep your secret, that's evidence of a strong motivation to protect the secret in other ways too, including looking for sabotage. Now if even one whistle-blow had been discovered by NASA, this would tip them off that their hoax workers were not especially loyal. It would also motivate them to very carefully check all the work to date, and exercise much more care while inspecting future work.

Now Mary Bennett and David Percy tell us that a great number -- perhaps a majority -- of Apollo photos contain anomalies they say could have been left by whistle-blowers. This amounts to thousands of "anomalous" photos!

Yet we're supposed to believe that all of this supposed intense scrutiny -- hell-bent on murder if the secret got out -- missed not just one or two anomalies, but missed thousands of anomalies.

Anyone who believes this can contact me for a bridge I have for sale in New York.
