Mind you, in any court of law in this country (even Los Angeles county), a judge will simply take judicial notice of the fact that we've gone to the Moon. For instance, you need not prove when the sun rose on a given day - you don't get to argue that in court - the Judge simply accepts that it rose at 7:13 am or whatever. You don't get to argue whether it was raining or not.

Likewise, in any suit, the Fool won't get the chance to make the court room a place to make his case to the public. The Judge will simply make a finding of fact, through Judicial Notice, that we've been to the Moon.

If the Fool has a problem with that, he can take it to an appeals court, and waste time and money having the state intermediate and Supreme Courts agree that it was not "clear error" for the Judge at the trial level to have taken such notice.
