My father worked for Bendix at the Kennedy Space Center until just before the conclusion of the Apollo Project. He worked on the elevators for the VAB and the launch towers. He would not have been "one of the insiders" in any Hoax, as would a lot of others. However, where's the "not one of the insiders" who just happened to be on scene when the Astronauts were returned from the Apollo capsule and saw something strange. There was the supposed insider from Area 51 that the UFOlogists, (Bill Lazar?), but where's the innocent/unknowing member of the 400K people working on Apollo? J/P=? RE: Moon Hoax.

It was great! I'm starting to bug the wife to let me go by myself as she wouldn't be interested. Spacefest 2007 was a highlight for last year. Hopefully, I'll see you at Spacefest 2009. Jim Phil,

I can easily drive down from LA and stay at my sister's house while there. I'm looking forward to updated guest lists as the event draws near. Cool!
