Default Air to Ground Transcripts and the moon hoax

As I'm sure most of you are aware, one of the hoax proponents claims is that the air to ground conservations were pre-recorded and then a vehicle was sent to the moon broadcasting this message. This technique allows people around the world to track something to the moon and of course fools all those people in other countries that are tracking Apollo as well. I know it is a silly idea, but it is moon hoax folks.

I'm not sure how many of you know this but NASA has a complete listing of the Air to Ground of the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo flight at

http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/history/miss...ranscripts.htm

If you read any of these transcripts, you'll see that many current event topics, like sports are discussed, and sometimes in great detail.

For example on Apollo 11,

If you go to

http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/history/miss...s/AS11_TEC.PDF

WARNING IT'S A HUGH FILE (626 pages of PDF)

which are transcripts of the flight, you can find direct references to current events. If you search for "Czar", you will find a reference to the Russian newspaper Pravda calling Neil Armstrong, the "Czar of the ship" on page 205 of the transcript. Further down, there are numerous references to sport scores, etc and a somewhat detailed account of the Houston Astros loss to the Reds. Obviously, these are real time conversations. I don't see how this could be faked, since many people heard these broadcasts live and would know instantly if they were fake.

The NASA history branch was giving those away on CD a few years ago at cost. I've got my copy somewhere.

Giving them away? Must be quite a CD. Where did you get it?

Well, of course NASA could predict the future.....

Or at least that's what the Zetas tell me.

Apollo Lunar Surface Journal has transcripts of the communication (with added commentary) from the lunar missions....
