RE: [asa] Moonwalk: Where was I?

I was in the womb, so I don't remember a thing.

The phrase in the article that stood out to me the most was, “They don’t
undertake to prove that their view is true” so much as to “find flaws in
what the other side is saying.” As Randy said, I think this is the biggest
parallel I see with a lot of "folk science" today, not just the
conspiratorial view of the mainstream that some express. (I do at this
point take issue with lumping the "Obama birth certificate" controversy in
with denial of the moon landings, but I digress.)

Hi Merv,

I had to chuckle when I read this, as my parents were only teenagers at the
time. Anyone out there my age I wonder? :b

In Christ,
