Ok, I think I've finally found the proof once and for all that we never set foot on the moon. It all comes down to a number of codes that can be found in the word "NASA" using palidromes. Below is a list of them; see if you can spot a pattern.

A Santa at NASA.
A Santa deified at NASA.
A Santa dog lived as a devil god at NASA.
A Santa lived as a devil at NASA.
A Santa lives evil at NASA.
A Santa pets rats, as Pat taps a star step at NASA.
A Santa snaps pans at NASA.
A Santa snips pins at NASA.
A Santa spat taps at NASA.
A Santa spit taboo bat tips at NASA.
A Santa spits tips at NASA.
A Santa spots tops at NASA.
A Santa stops pots at NASA.
A Santa taps Pat at NASA.
A Santa's rats top Nat, as Satan pots tars at NASA.

The common theme here is Santa which also, incidentally, is an anagram of Satan which is another clue in itself.

But anyway, as has been quite cleary seen from history, and as every child will testify, while Santa must circumvent around the edge of the Earth's atmosphere to get the required acceleration (how else could he get to everyone's house in a night) it is well known that he has never flown his sleigh (pulled by his reindeer) much beyond the Earth's atmosphere, certainly never more that 300 kms beyond and certainly never through the legendary Van Allen Belt. The radiation would eat through his sacks of toys and destroy all the presents.

So it's obvious isn't it? If Santa can't do it, what hope has mere mortal?

There we go then. Coded clues undiscovered and unnoticed until rather covertly and subtly pointed out in a recent intereview with Rudolf. Yes, the red-nosed reindeer is a whistleblower but he can't whistle through his teeth so uses his nose which is why it's red - that should've been a dead giveaway in itself and it's a surprise that clue wasn't spotted well before now.

I hope this puts the "We went to the moon" arguments to rest once and for all.

PS: The link to the interview with Rudolf has mysteriously gone dead (I think it's been hastily removed from the net after being up for only three days) but it was ostensibly an interview about his independent travels on his days off (all 364 of them - except for leap year of course, then it's 365).

Have you talked with the Helper Elves yet? I'm sure that they really are the MIB in disguise. They must have been the ones that silenced Rudolf!

Here's one for you: tun as a nut

So it looks like your theory has been confirmed. NASA has apparently been allied with the North Pole regime since at least the mid 60's.

*gasp* It must be true! Santa claus is going to be the chief of the new world order! He's corrupting innocent young children's minds with presents! Our only hope is to BAN CHRISTMAS ONCE AND FOR ALL!

- Irony, plus a bit too much coffee.

After a long night at the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory, followed by three hours' sleep and then an 8:00 AM lecture? Probably not. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

It is by caffiene alone I set my mind in motion,
It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed,
The hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning...
It is by caffiene alone I set my mind in motion.

Melange anyone?

Know a mentat by his brown stained teeth....

Santa...grotesquely rotund, ensconced in a huge metallic sleigh...showing up at your house without warning...knows when you have been bad or good...

Is Santa a 3rd Stage Guild Navigator?

I don't remember santas elves being dressed in black and being quite so ugly....

Hey--I practiacally live on Coffe, Sugar, and nicotene...maybe THAT explains a few things....

Also looks like we need to institute a thoughough search of the Sahara (Think thats where the expose' documentary "Dune" was filmed...) to find the spice factory(ies) and expose the Diobolical plot to the world (or take it over and assume Total World Domination (Tm)

edited to add info...
