Jay I am absolutely astounded. Your posts on GLP were simply brilliant.

It was a pleasure to read them!

Bravo =D>

Link?

Here is the thread, but I don't think Jay shows up until page 3.

I'm confused about the GLP thread. Is there more than one "Anonymous Coward?" One seems to argue like Jay; the other is an HB.

Anyone that posts without registering or typing in another name will be labled an "Anonymous Coward". That is the "guest" of GLP.

It's amazing how close-minded Interdimensional Warrior remains after Jay's posts. But it's GLP, what goes in one ear goes out the other.

Actually, it looks like IDW went from adamently claiming the engines could never fire because they'd melt (and thus all the missions were faked) pre-Jay to claiming that, for some reason, they sent the landers to the moon and faked the relay post-Jay.

And, of course, he does this while maintaining that he didn't change his tune. It may have changed again, I stopped reading at page 6.

Now I have to go wash my eyes. This breaks my promise to never read GLP again. ugh.

Is GLP still owned and operated by the spamware people? It's not like I ever really enjoyed going over there, but now I'm afraid to.

Hmm... Well if you want to go over there, you can use Dillo or something. Or Links. Yeah, Links will do it.

I wouldn't even think of going over there on a Windows box...

I use WinXP Pro with SP2 and all it's associated popup blockers and spyware killers. I have no problem going to GLP.

WinXP home with microsoft Antispyware and Antivir, visiting GLP always went perfect (from a computer infecction opoint of view ), not even a block or quarantine waning. so even Bad Protection works against GLP it seems .

It seems like there just isn't much that can get right over there. :roll:

With Win2K Pro, Firefox 1.0, SpywareBlaster, MS Antispyware, no problems here. After having read the entire sorry (except for Jay's contributions and few others) thread, there were no successful spyware/malware attacks.

Now if only there were software which would clean up and scientifically transform the content of the posts by IDW and A&S. The latter's posts appear to indicate a case of hubris, whereas the former's, with their wild mood swings, indicate, well, let's just say the poor fellow seems to have some real emotional issues.

I hope both of them find their way back to a rational, fact-based way of looking at reality. But my use of the subjunctive to start the previous paragraph was, unfortunately, probably necessary.

This may be a little late in this thread, but anyone new to GLP should be advised that the language over there can be quite foul.

Aaaaaaaargh!!!!!

I've never been over ot GLP before, and now I've njust torn out my eyes so I cna't seq it any morew....

LOL that first trip to GLP can be quite the shock.

I've been over there and my brain seems to have stopped functioning now....

Jay, you are a star!!!! How you managed to keep your cool and continue to argue rationally when all around you were ignoring common sense is beyond me! You have the proverbial patience of Job....

I always find it a little disheartening when possibly man's greatest ever adventure is dismissed with a phrase such as "just look at that foil lunar lander thing, it COULDN'T POSSIBLY have been used to land on the moon. It certainly doesn't look like something they would have made for Star Wars...." (or insert any suitable Sci-Fi film title of choice).

"Functionality" and "built for purpose" seem to be concepts they do not comprehend. The LM might not look "pretty" in many people's eyes, but for those of us who understand the concepts (and believe me I only understand the basic concepts, certainly nothing compared to Jay's great in-depth knowledge) it seems to make perfect sense to me.

I'm running WinXP SP2 with the Microsoft Spyware sniffer (which works amazingly well, believe it or not). So far, I haven't picked up anything hostile from GLP except the vibe from some of the posters.

Its alright, a visit from Dr. Absolut and a pair of Tylenol do the trick and I don't even have to give anyone my credit card number. :P
