Great story but only an urban legend, proved false.

OK.That's it!They will only cover it for 50K!I'm out.
Just imagine it's 2013 and a guy pulls in to the local cruise with this car fresh from a full restoration.After spending over 300K some guy walks up to him and says."Hey.I just heard on the radio and they proved that those guys never walked on the moon.Isn't that crazy?Nice Vette.How much do you have in it?"

I can't believe there are still people in the USA that believe this.

Sure if it was only US involvement it could be faked but our scientists here were involved in tracking the spacecraft, assisting you guys with the mission and the observatory here relayed the live television of man's first steps on the moon.

It definitely did happen.

By the way there's a great movie on it - The Dish



Check it out.

Seems like the US not only went to the moon. But we also cornered the market on home grown idiots.
