Jack White never subscribed to any JFK assassination theory unless it involved more than 500 people. I don't think JW ever authenticated any photograph from the assassination; every single photo he has looked at he has deemed a forgery. Don't laugh! If you don't know what you're doing, it is very easy to find anomalies in a photo.

LN = Lone Nut theorist. The moniker used by those who believe Oswald assassinated JFK all by himself.

You have no idea what that picture means because it does not have a scale on it. Black could mean 0, white could mean .0000001 or 1,000,000. Find the scale that goes with it then maybe you'll have a valid point.

License plates? According to a recent comment on the LRO Apollo website, we can image cigarette packs now!

Obviously fake. Clouds in the Sahara Desert? Hello? Deserts don't have clouds. That's why they're deserts.

Show them this link, maybe they will believe people have been to the moon then. Don't ever do that again!

Some info on the timing of separation from history.nasa.gov/afj/index.htmRendezvous radar tracking is normally done a number of times prior to ascent, when the CSM passes over the landing site. Not only does this verify the operation of the radar and the tracking software, it provides accurate position and velocity data of the Command Module in the event ground updates are not possible. An alignment of the guidance platform is done, using the Moon's gravity as a vertical reference, and a star as its other reference. At the same time, the most up-to-date landing site location data is relayed to the LM's computer by the ground controllers. The Abort Guidance System is initialized, and loaded with the launch parameters. Next, Program 12, Powered Ascent, is started on the guidance computer. The crew provides values for the insertion velocity parameters, and verifies stored attitude parameters. 70 seconds before the launch, the CSM passes over the landing site. At five seconds before ignition, the Commander presses Abort Stage, which detonates explosive bolts holding the two stages together, and fires other charges to propel guillotines that sever wire bundles and plumbing that pass between the stages. At the same time, the Display and Keyboard (DSKY), which has been counting down, blanks and replaces its display with a flashing Verb 99, requesting that the crew authorize ignition. When the LMP presses Pro(ceed) on the keyboard, the normal display returns, and the engine ignites when the count reaches zero.

Forgot to add- you guys really are helping and are chipping away at my skepticism. Thank you! Losing your skepticism is not a good thing. Perhaps you are confusing skepticism with doubt?

150 from an online IQ test? That is pathetic. I usually surpass 150 by the third time I take the test...

I really wish you would write a book that dealt with this topic. Thanks for the vote of confidence. But Michael Shermer does it so much better than I. I disagree. You are a much better writer than Shermer. I've trudged through three of his books; his writing style makes it a chore to get through them. Unfortunately, he doesn't write the way he talks. Your style, knowledge of the subject and logic, and complete demolition of the HBs makes you a joy to read. If you won't write a book, at least get interviewed on the Skeptic's Guide to the Universe.

Has anyone ever made a Conspiracy Theory flow chart? Something like step one: through ignorance and fundamental ability to do basic research, make up ridiculous claim--> Can you disprove your own theory: (there is no 'yes' option), no --> has someone disproved your claim: yes --> throw out straw-man, (there is no 'no' option)...

Regarding the use of a relay satellite, don’t forget that a satellite could not simulate the signals from the surface of the Moon. Anything in orbit would produce a Doppler shift in the signal and the line-of-sight with Earth would be periodically eclipsed by the Moon. If this relay idea could be made to work, it would be necessary to land relay stations on the Moon. But the HBs know there is no gravity in space so once a satellite is in space it can be put at any altitude and any speed. "Orbit" to them means "moving in space".

"The Russians were winning the space race so they should have beaten the USA to the Moon" is a ridiculous non-sequitor. By that logic, the first team to score a goal wins the game. The first sprinter to pull ahead wins the race. The Japanese attacked the USA before we attacked them; therefore they won the war.
