You can “cheat” with the Magic Eye[sup]TM[/sup] pictures, and get something that **sorta** looks like what the picture’s really supposed to look like, by crossing your eyes. (The picture will be inside-out, but at least you’ll see **something**.)

Hold the Magic Eye[sup]TM[/sup] picture about 3 or 4 feet away from your eyes, and then hold one of your fingers up really close to your face (a foot away or less.) Focus on your finger, but while your are doing so, _look past it_ at the Magic Eye[sup]TM[/sup] picture behind it. Try moving your finger closer and farther away. Eventually, an inverted image will pop out at you.

So, where was everyone (or, perhaps where were everyone’s parents) when Neil Armstrong uttered those famous words from the surface of the moon, “That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.”? Just as memorable as, say, when JFK was assassinated or when _Challenger_ exploded.

Esprix:

According to my mom, I fell asleep before Armstrong took his first steps. I was only 4 years old, after all.

What I remember most about the moon missions from my youth was that they were something that was **always there**. Every news program my parents had on, from the time I was old enough to remember until I was about 7 or 8 years old, had clips of Apollo astronauts walking on the moon. I assumed that it was **routine** that astronauts were on the moon, and that people would always **be** on the moon.

Had I only known. ☹

Oh well, this thread has gotten too long, and too much to wade through and the same people are saying the same things over and over again (including myself).

My job is done here. I didn’t come here expecting ANY of you to admit to ANYTHING. Infact, I’m glad you didn’t, otherwise people may have actually thought some of you were honest and forthright, and I wouldn’t want to give them that erroneous impression. I just wanted to get this truth into as many faces as possible, and that has been accomplished. Now I need to move on to another location where no one knows about this.  
The long range anomalies are still there. They haven’t disappeared because of any of the BS debunking on this board (or any other). I will only continue to add more long range anomalies (there is no shortage).

I’ll pop back in again sometime (when you least expect it).

Ok, buh-bye, now. Don’t forget to write. And don’t take any wooden nickels.  
Just remember - you _promised_ you’d leave.  
P.S. - Before you go on your merry way, you ought to do the world a favor and email a mod asking him or her to lock this travesty of a thread up.

[Moderator Hat ON]

Well, the OP is gone (or so he says) and this thread is much longer than we usually let them run anyhow, so I’m locking it.
