Fattydash's (a.k.a. Patrick1000, HighGain) writing style is what impresses you? That's what everyone else finds insufferable about him. Half his posts are like transcripts of a playground taunting circle. Even if you felt compelled to endure his puerile diction, you discover that his walls of text are just rants that have little or nothing to do with the topic at hand. You seem fairly articulate. Perhaps they should make you the group spokesperson. The OP references NASA's own data. Does not seem very childlike to me. He seems extremely competent. |

The OP references NASA's own data. Then when NASA's data doesn't conform to his personal uninformed expectations, he rants and calls people names. Sorry, but that is indeed childish. |

I did read the whole thread. Not only is the guy a genius, he writes better than the rest of you. Well, not everyone appreciates Wall o' Text (tm), CONSTANT CAPITAL LETTERS, and EXCESS EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!!!!!!!. But to each their own, I suppose. The OP seems to be very familiar with NASA's own material. More so than those posting in opposition. I find the arguments compelling. Do the astronauts themselves ever read this type of thing? I wonder how they might respond. |

No. Amateurs who don't know relevant facts and refuse to learn them are not entitled to criticize the way NASA does things, nor are they entitled to call people names and make libelous accusations.
Edit: To clarify, people are certainly entitled to their opinions, but they are not entitled to behave in the above manner on forums without consequences.

Well, we know how one astronaut responded when *asked* that sort of thing.
Others might just laugh sadly at the folly of mankind.

I think I saw the OP the other day, what given all his super human abilities and that. He's the guy that flies around in a costume with a big "S" on the front, right?
At any rate, I think he is real super, man.

The OP seems to be very familiar with NASA's own material. Anyone can quote NASA material. The OP’s problem is in his inability to understand it. That sounds like a problem you need to work on. Would you read the ramblings of a know-nothing conspiracy theorist if you were one of the astronauts? |

You seem fairly articulate. Perhaps they should make you the group spokesperson. It's a little early for you to be fixated on me. It's almost like you know me. It's hard to concoct a theory that NASA's data was falsified without referencing that data. Even a murder defense has to mention the corpse. "Referencing" the data is not the same as understanding it. Fattydash shows complete ineptitude with the information he's dealing with, and disdain for the expertise of those who correct him. Then you're not reading the same Fattydash posts as we are. I wonder why you would say that. |
