I have always considered Hoagland to be a phony and a fraud, ever since I first heard him babbling about glass buildings on the moon.
He is a real NASA wannabe, but I suspect, in reality, they make fun of him.
I do agree, however, that we are not being told what is happening on the Gulf, and it may be far worse then being reported.
Also, I DO listen to Kook to Kook.
The Moon building stuff is strange. I would think, that enough people with really strong scopes would have found that stuff by now. The Mars face is weird too.
