Because of my interest in Apollo I have learned so much about Apollo. This is rare among hoax believers. There are still plenty out there who believe we only landed on the Moon once and get all confused when people ask them questions about, say, Apollo 14.

To be honest, I have always found my debating the opposite side extremely educating. Because of my interest in Apollo I have learned so much about Apollo. Had I never gotten into the hoax debate, I would only know that Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. So it isn't a complete waste, and I do other things in my life than just Apollo, but whenever I'm on the computer, that's mostly what I do. Got to agree. I have learned a huge amount about the Apollo (and earlier US and Soviet) space missions from being here. And it has given me a lot of extra respect for the scale of the achievement.

I said many year ago now that I entered the debate not knowing a great deal about Apollo. As I learnt more and more, collected the Apogee books, read the press kits and reports, watched the videos, read ALSJ, I became more convinced than ever. More than that, whereas before I just accepted it, now I know it.

Then I went on believing it was a hoax until a month after I turned 15. I finally came to the conclusion that Apollo is real. I don't think people should just accept it, I think they should be like us and research, understand and then be convinced the missions were real.
