Someone needs to post a pic of the "tourist guy" on the moon.

One itsy-bitsy problem... Tourist Guy was the guy BEHIND the camera that took the take-off shot. You KNOW that the cameraman never is seen in any pictures...

You know, guys, this thread makes me kind of sad. The FR community is mostly a fairly sharp group. For the idea of the Apollo program as a vast conspiracy to gain any traction at all among the members of the FR community is a big disappointment. I know I'm old and all (45), but please just think about the hundreds of thousands of people who would 1) all have to be in on the gag, and 2) all have to keep their mouths shut for more than three decades.

Someone should call Oliver Stone. I think we got his next conspiracy movie. Remember JFK? That was the one where Ollie told us that Oswald didn't shoot Kennedy. EVERYBODY ELSE shot Kennedy. Some of my esteemed colleagues here at FR are obviously ready to believe anything. Really sad, people.
