Ref: Nailing the Myth of the Moon, Greg Heathcliffe July 23 ALTHOUGH I consider myself to be a bit of a conspiracy nut, I am always open to persuasive proof. However the pointless criticism aimed at the sceptics by Mr Heathcliffe achieves absolutely nothing.

First of all, none of the sceptics are putting forward any evidence, they are merely asking questions. Secondly Capricorn One is a fictional story that once again no one has put forward as evidence. If Mr Heathcliffe is correct about stars only showing up in sci-fi tv and films, which may well be true, perhaps he can offer up an explanation for this. Mr Heathcliffe’s point on unmanned probes proving that film will not be wiped by radiation is somewhat unexplained, please can you clarify what proof you are referring to. I am happy to have my doubts dispelled Greg, but please if you are going to criticise, please offer up a coherent argument.
