If you can't put together arguments that don't contradict themselves, you won't get anywhere.  And even where you don't contradict yourself, you're all over the map.   You don't really even have a coherent claim; you just have a mess of ill-informed notions cribbed from various conspiracists and overlaid atop your own ill-informed certitude.

Makes me think of cottage pie.  A mince of conspiracism topped with some potato of ill-informed certitude.

HB meltdowns notwithstanding, I do so very much appreciate this board for the amount of information I learn about Apollo every time I come here.

The sound of a jet engine powering up after burn, the scream of a pilot... before the metal frame disintegrates into a million fiery pieces on the ground. Static.

Darn.  You never did get around to educating us about how they would have faked the telemetry, either.

He thought he could come here, and wow everyone with his malarkey.

He did not expect the level of expertise here.

He ran away.

You can ask one last question. Decide carefully, don`t make it go to waste. After that you will hear of me no more, as if I never existed. Never ever again.
