		<description>Well, the comment page doesn't like img tags, so you'll have to visit ancientpond.com/images/ToadRip/aliens.jpg.   Sorry.</description>

		<description>That's just a building, Adrian.  I have photographic proof that aliens have landed!</description>

		<description>Well, people, I'm not a cartesian foundationalist seeking 100% of certainty in order to affirm to have knowledge... The estimation of 99% in the case is enough... the Occam’s Razor is well applied, of course. But as Days acknowledges: "There is no way (with the evidence available) to proof or disproof that is a not statue". We deal with available evidence and theories. I just hope that we really have access to ALL available evidence (I know that I'm now slipping in a kind of conspiracy theory... but... do NASA really show all the pictures from Mars?)...</description>

		<description>You guys are telling me that all this fuss is about a little green toy  solider... (the ones that used to come in little bags of 50)? Now you guys know that the rover threw it out there and took pictures of it. C'mon my robosapien can throw those little toys too!

And how come on the top of the pictures it shows "NASA Video" in the corner, but only stills are available?</description>

		<description>What The??? posts:

[[&lt;i&gt;a US flag blowing in the wind on a planet with no atmospheric pressure???&lt;/i&gt;]]

Vibrating, not blowing.  They had just jammed the thing into the ground.

[[&lt;i&gt; Identical backgrount landscape profiles (shape &#38; height of hills, crater marks on surface etc) appear in still frames shot (supposedly) several “Moon Buggy” hours drive apart. &lt;/i&gt;]]

It's called "parallax."  Take a photo of a car a hundred miles from Mt. Hood.  Move the car a thousand feet further along.  Take another picture.  Wow, Mount Hood didn't move!</description>

		<description>Clearly What The has not seen the site if he/she questions the blowing flag which only ever "blows" when an astronaut is moving it around and blows in such a way that clearly shows it's in an airless environment.

Unfortunately some people ignore reality.</description>
