Default Moon Land Sales Again............But an Interesting Read

I know this isn't new and from the looks of the board never ending, but the Atlanta Journal Constitution is pimping moon land sales. The article is kind of a funny read all in all.

I love how he says that he's "not a scammer," yet sells $75,000 'ambassadorships' that are obligated to sell a certain number of Lunar properties per month. Properties that have no legal backing at all.

I like the way he says we're going to be on the moon next year

Lemme break out that old Mecano set, I'm sure there's a way to create a pressurised cockpit out of this somehow :-?

I found it funny that the guy doesn't really seem like he believed himself at first but now he does. So that means he used to believe he was scamming people?
