I agree with you... this is how it started.
MukluK even tried a bit of humour...
I think it took a leg of its own when Dayseed called everyone idiots and I tried to bring a point... Check it out on page 2...

And Dayseed I would appreciate if you would call me by my name.

   

Dgthe3,

As soon as somebody posts something evidentiary, this thread can resume that as its focus. Until then, Mario-Balki here threw out some logically piss-poor evidence to support a conspiratorial view he claimed he doesn't hold. These theories have been disputed and remain so.

1. Mario disregarded Soviet acknowledgement of American success by his infamous, "Were you there?" line of historiographical inquiry, thus rendering all history moot. For somebody who claims to 'sit on the fence', why not instead say, "Hmmm, the Soviet Empire supporting NASA's claims sure gives a ton of credibility. I'll have to incorporate that into my body of knowledge."? Also, Mario referenced what appears to be an airshow crash and used that sole item as evidence of a silent Soviet foreign policy to ALSO explain why the Soviets never contradicted the Americans. Nice fence-sitting.

2. Mukluk be damned, I wrote all the original humour on this thread.

3. Dgthe3, you came on here with a splash of arrogance, claiming that you would somehow be the font of anti-conspiratorial knowledge. Your new claim juxtapositioned beside your original claim shows you to be quite disingenuous. Also, see Dgthe3 on the Avro Arrow threads for more examples of this.

4. Mario, I would appreciate it if you would quit being a hypocrite. Don't fling insults all the while decrying it. You're too Balki Bartokamous to get away with it.

5. Dgthe3, feel free to keep this thread going with evidence. Don't piss and moan without being willing to take up the torch yourself.

Now, if Mario is willing to admit he took a terrible turn trying to explain away the Soviet's acknowledgement, perhaps this thread can truly keep going OR Mario can defend his theory.

Either way, the ball is in his court.

   

the idea behind my claim is that with my knowledge of basic physics principals and to a lesser extent, politics i could disproove nearly every single piece of evidence that the supporters of the conspiracy could provide. I am not being arrogant, it is just that it is simple to explain this stuff. With regards to the Arrow thread, I started this while i felt i was (indirectly) being accused of believing in all the conspiracies.

In regards to disproving more stuff, i will be happy to once there is more provided to disproove. nothing new of that sort has been posted, so i haven't had a chance.

Now, if you want further proof that the landings weren't faked, ok. What about all the instruments that continue to send scientiffic data back to Earth, such as seismic activity monitors to measure 'moonquakes' and mirrors that are used measure the distance from the earth to the moon.

   

I agree all you conspiracists, take Dgthe3's last paragraph and explain away...

   

It's all quite simple, really....

And a drumroll followed by a rim shot...

   

lol

   

Uh, good one Royalhighlander?

   

Another bit of evidence that we went to the moon is the advancements in technology that resulted from the Apollo missions. One of the main ones being in the miniturization of electronics, namely computers. Granted that graphic calculators have more computing power than what was on board those spacecraft, they were quite good compared to what was availible at the time.

Also, after they went to the moon, NASA needed to try and do something even more spectacular to keep public interest up. They felt the next logical was to go to mars, but a single craft would be too large and expensive to launch in one piece. The solution was to build it in space, take it up in parts and assemble them. To reduce costs, a reusable craft would be needed because the number of launches needed would make single use rockets impractical. So, they began work in the mid to late 70's, at the end of Apollo, on the space shuttle.

   

Hey, watch daily planet tonight on discovery at 7 and/or 11. They have a thing 'definative proof that the landings were faked'
