That's what a LEM [sic] should look like! A solid block of lead, none of this flimsy gold foil crap. ;D ;D

I was just given a December 1969 Life magazine. It has a picture of Alan Bean removing the heat source for the SNAP-27 radioisotope thermoelectric generator from the cask on the LM landing strut.
In 1969, NASA had no problem showing pictures of the flimsy thermal shielding!

The photo shows how flimsy the thermal shielding was: it's all blown away ;D

I'd like to mention that the ground material they are using looks nothing like the actual lunar surface. It would seem proper to think that if they were going to fake it, they would use the same ground material in the training scenarios as they would on the actual faked landing. It's, you know, cost effective. Unless they were anticipating the eventual rise of brilliant HB's who would discover the anomoly and expose the giant fraud. Boy, those guys are smart!

So is that what the spot is by his right boot? The tattered remains of the gold foil? It looks a lot more like a spill of gold _powder_ to me. Which means this, finally, is the smoking gun we've been waiting for all along. This picture shows what NASA was trying to hide all these years -- Apollo struck GOLD on the Moon!

No no no, you have been taken in by the hoax of the hoax. They struck Fool's Gold on the moon, and had already committed to mining contracts, and thus had to maintain the hoax within a hoax. (that is, they didn't really land a man on the moon, they sent a robotic lander to return samples. These samples were reported to be gold, but were in fact fool's gold. Am I making sense here?)

That's actually Neil in that photo. And we all know that Neil Armstroing is the greatest keeper of the hoax secret there is, right?

And we all know that Neil Armstroing is the greatest keeper of the hoax secret there is, right? Judging from his general demeanour I would say that was fair comment.

The question you need to consider is, what was his demeanour prior to his becoming an Astronuat, and has it changed in anyway?
The general opinion of those that knew him prior to his joining NASA, is no. He's always been a private, shy and quiet guy, that's just how he is, before, during and after the Apollo missions. As such, how is such a demenour suspicious?
