If they find it, maybe we will actually hear Armstrong say, "Good luck Mr. Gorski!"

The amount of records that NASA keeps has got to be incredible. Since the invention of the camera and motion picture technology, mankind has gotten to where we record everything. However, we record it in the most impermanent methods imaginable. Add to that, we don't seem to have any idea what's important, anymore. Even something as incredible as the moon landing becomes mundane to the people working space travel every day. I hope they find it.

Exactly nine months after the Roswell UFO incident ... Al Gore was born.

You ask: Is that al gore bit true ?

You can look these up ...

Roswell, New Mexico UFO incident: June 24, 1947
Al Gore born: March 31, 1948

Scares the global warming out of a person doesn't it ?

If they can be found, he proposes making digitalised copies to treat the world to a very different view of history.

While making a digitalized copy may be wise to insure against complete loss of the origina l, in the past we've seen far too great a reliance on the digital copy, with a tendency then to neglect the analog original. Don't let that happen!

As time goes on, we're gradually able to extract more and more improved images from old magenetic tape. Such later extractions are often far better than earlier extractions. If we discard or neglect the original, or equipment to read it, we can have a bad case of buyer's remorse.

Preserve your analog assets!

Next, we're going to hear Area 51 has misplaced the alien bodies from the Roswell crash.

Can't they just go back to the movie studio where the moon landing was REALLY filmed, and take some more pictures? (sarcasm off.)

Amazing...and these people build and fly rockets to space...better take better care of my tax money fellas.

This isn't the first time they've lost something important.

I read a while back that they can't seem to find the blueprints for the Saturn V rocket.

Exactly nine months after the Roswell UFO incident ... Al Gore was born.

But what is the gestation period of a Roswell alien? If it, too, is nine months, then I think you're onto something!

Coasttocoastam...Art Bell's show did this story last week. The host was George Noorey and the guest was Richard C. Hoagland.

Mr. Hoagland thinks the tapes were deliberately destroyed because they show buildings and other stuff on the moon that the goobermint doesn't want us to see.
