BS or maybe I just don't get it....

Thermionic Elitist (not Tube Snob)
Reverse speech:
As a musician, I think the concept is hysterical, in light of the old scandals over alleged backwards masking.

The most telling point is that even after the narrator explains what I'm supposed to hear, I still don't hear it. Or it's so incredibly vague it could be anything.

John Lear:

I heard him on C2C on night and was fascinated at his descriptions of clearly viewable buildings and other obvious goodies on the moon. He sounded quite believable.

Then I went and looked at what he was talking about. Errrr.... no. Not even close. Not even close in a reverse speech kinda way. They're rocks, buddy.

Basiago(?):

This is the guy who claims there is provable life on Mars and you can tell via the released Nasa photographs. He not only claims life, but describes exactly what you're seeing, complete with Martian history, as if he were there for the whole thing.

I know it's not nice but I am going to have to call him a loon. To say he was way out in space is to be too kind. His observations are not even a good joke or an interesting flight of fancy. He just takes off, as it were, and never lands.


Is it just me?
 
I missed your part about the Moon. Well there are a few interesting photos out there, but I know what you're talking about. I spent a bit of time on Lear's Moon site one day and the conclusions he draws are fucking ridiculous. He seems to trace random shapes around random rocks and call it an "oil refinery".

But don't throw the baby out with the bath water (as far as the Moon stuff goes). Check out the show called "Vito Saccheri" in the Dark Matters section. Its one of Don Ecker's old shows from the 90s and this particular episode details an extremely fascinating story to do with the moon-structures idea. Heres a link to make it easy:

Vito Saccheri Moon Show Special - The Paracast Community Forums

Don himself even claims to have a photo showing what he says is an obvious bridge/platform over a small crater. (I believe he is working on a Moon TV show, so hopefully well get to see this photo for ourselves soon.)

I strongly suspect there are many things about the Moon we don't know. Bathwater out, keep baby.

Thanks for the link, Gareth - I'll definitely check it out.
