That's very cool of you to say. Believe it or not, it's comments like yours that make it worthwhile for me, and give me the occasional boost I need to keep pursuing this new "hobby" of mine.

Thanks very much, and be sure to give me your input in my new thread regarding LL2!

Again, thank you VERY much svector, for helping yet another to find a little bit more peace in this strange, uncertain and often quite untrustworthy world.
My pleasure. Be sure to check out the rest of Phil's web site here, and Jay's site at http://www.clavius.org for further reinforcement on the reality of Apollo. They've both done exhaustive research in this field, and between them, have busted just about every conceivable hoax theory imagineable.

I told an HB the other day that his team is 0-341, and I think that's probably about right.

Also, check out Satweaver's debunking site for some info you may not have seen before:

That's "hoist with," actually, if you go back to the Shakespeare.

I was wondering if anyone was going to comment on that.

It's even funnier if you read the entire passage

Quote:
William Shakespeare
For 'tis the sport to have the engineer
Hoist with his own petard: and 't shall go hard
But I will delve one yard below their mines,
And blow them at the moon . . .

A quick OT:

William Randolph Hearst had a habit of collecting large animals for his zoo at San Simeon . The primary requirement was that he would be able to ride them around the estate. One beast he became really fond of was a very large aardvark from South America. It got so Hearst wouldn't go anywhere without it and riding it while at his destination.

One week Hearst was visiting his various newspapers based in Brooklyn. After his tour, he saddled up his favorite mount and headed out onto Bay Avenue. Two natives were walking down the avenue as Hearst and his steed went galloping by. One of the gentlemen rubbed his eyes and asked, "Who was that, Marty?" to which the other gentleman replied, "Don't yez know? He's Hearst on his own pet aardvark!"

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming...

Im on a contract basis.


In the BA's case i just got greedy....

Now are you guys gonna....? oh nevermind...<sigh>

you guys must be intimidated by the boxing gloves...


ETA: In all actuality, my knowledge on Apollo is very limited. I never really got into the debunking of the HB side because I never really took it seriously- and i don't personally know ANYONE who doubts that we went to the moon.
The debunking i have gotten into deals with a lot of everyday issues- misconceptions and "facts" that are nowhere near reality.
UFO's too and i got into a lot of the photographic aspect of it. Mostly self read- i am no expert. So HERE i mostly step back and keep my mouth shut- others like JayUtah will undoubtedly do a better job than i

A common problem with people that look at the images of space- UFO's - planets etc don't understand the spectrography involved and the coloring. Because of that i have come across a LOT of people who (Hoagland style) see things that aren't really there. Life on Mars, Jupiter.. Buildings on either.. Old stuff to the people here on BAUT.

So as a NASA funded Debunker i'd be minimum wage.
