Is the Scientific Process, Standards of Proof ignored by NASA Supporters?

Apollohoax is the only place in the universe dedicated to offering this service.

A bold claim, but in balance... probably true. 

Based on two quesitonable items. 

1. My ignorance of any other place on earth.
2. The assumption that any place other than earth has not heard of the Apollo hoax, specifically.  Although if populated by carbon based life forms, they likely have quite similar problems to deal with.  I don't have a guess for how silicon based life would be.  But if the singularity crowd is right, we may get a glimpse of the  silicon based mentality in some undefined but not to distant future.

He's admitted it on GLP.

GLP? Where's that then? Is it God Like Productions Forum??

Oh bye bye, Romulus I would say it's been a pleasure but that would be a lie.

GLP? Where's that then? Is it God Like Productions Forum??

Yes, a place that I never ever go. There are some brave souls here that venture out that far. We must go, the sand people are becoming restless.

and they will be back in greater numbers..

[Echnaton]

I'm glad he's gone from here, though.  Thank you, LO.

His time was certainly up.  One wonders if a fringe reset will occur.  It took year from IDW's last romp through this forum to develop the Romulus character and return.

Probably best to gloss over how we developed computers when they turn up...

If only you knew how much that has made me laugh.

'Yes, move along, nothing to see...'

IDW was here?  That must have been when I took a break from the forum about 1 to 2 years ago.  Can you direct me to the threads?

Once upon a time there was carbon based life,
and it gave over to, silicon based life.

I don’t view the prospect with equanimity,
maybe I’m just sentimental

"Look on my works ye mighty and despair"
"Ummm..ok..which works?"
"Don't quibble. I have works, and I demand that you look upon them and despair"
"So far I am despairing of seeing them."
"They'll be along shortly, but I strongly advise that you despair anyway."
"Can I wait until I've seen them before despairing?"
"No. They're amazing, and by golly you will despair, trust me."
"Will they be along soon, only I need to get the tea on?"
"Pah! You imbeciles are going to be really sorry you you didn't despair sooner when I get these works to you...wait...come back..how dare you..."

[exit, pursued by a bare assertion]

This delights my English major soul on every level, and I thank you.

I would say that "misogyny" is a subset of sexism.  You can be sexist without being misogynist, but you cannot be misogynist without being sexist.  I'm not sure what we saw here went up to the level of misogyny, but it was right up there.  It's clear that he thought of women as "lesser than," but that's so common that I can't even see it as misogyny.  The fact that he was proud of it does reach into misogyny territory.

That should have been years.

Maybe I am conflating BABB or BAUT with the first AH board though.  It was a long time ago.

That was my thought, although I cannot think of examples to illustrate the difference. A quick Google and the Guardian comes up with a neat discussion. There is some foul language in this article, not something that I want to see written by women, I have to admit (cue irony, and cue slap from Gillianren and Andromeda):

Ok, sorry for the confusion.  I know IDW paid a visit to BABB/BAUT some years ago.  I think this may have been his first visit to this forum (or its predecessors).

The confusion is on my part.  So I'll just retract the concern about a fringe reset.  I really don't want to inadvertently disparage Romulus/IDW now that he is no longer able to repsond.
