diverdriver 5 #2 September 11, 2002 And I'd punch the guy in the nose too......this is BS. How disrespectful to an American Hero. People have taken this "conspiracy theory" lifestyle just way too far. Everything has to be a conspiracy. Nothing can ever be "just what it is."

quade 3 #5 September 11, 2002 Sibrel is a f'in' clown. Too bad Buzz lost his cool, but my guess is that Sibrel got what he deserved.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #6 September 11, 2002 He also called him a "thief" and the content of his film was that Aldrin participated in a large hoax. I don't know about you, but being called a thief and a liar in public by someone will move them to the top of the a$$-whipping signup sheet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jfields 0 #7 September 11, 2002 Quade, I give Aldrin points for restraint. It was the third encounter between the two. Three strikes, yer out! I'd have socked him too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meatmissile 0 #9 September 11, 2002 Good for you, Mr Aldrin. I would have done the same. You can only be patient for so long. But the ironic thing is that the film will most likely turn out to be very popular. -- ZZZzzzz.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MyUserID 0 #12 September 11, 2002 Unfortunately, I think that the conspiracy fantics will just use the punch to fuel their claims. But, I totally support Buzz. I'm suprised all he did was punch the guy. ------------------------------------------------------ Remember kids, eagles may soar, but at least weasels dont get sucked into jet engines.

Meathorse 0 #13 September 11, 2002 Sibrel sounds like the persistant type... next time 'ol Aldrin might have to go for the balls and really drive the point home. I heard that Buzz really didn't hit him anyway, Bart was struck with a transparency of his fist. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,463 #15 September 11, 2002 >Unfortunately, I think that the conspiracy fantics will just use the > punch to fuel their claims. Of course they will. If he had sworn on the bible, that would be proof of government brainwashing. If he had just walked away, that would be proof of a huge coverup. Now that he's punched him, it's evidence that the "establishment is out to get him." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeanJeanie 0 #16 September 11, 2002 OK I was next door neighbors with Bart Sibrel when I was 11-13 years old. Hadn't heard anything about him for 25 years then I saw his program on FOX. Couldn't believe it! So I called him up and we talked alot.. Funny Man. Don't know how much is true. It's that conspiracy theory thing going on. Much of what he said happed following his research, I wouldn't put past the government of ours................ But a hoax?????? www.sibrel.com A funny thing happened on the way to the moon. enjoy jeanie~~We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly~~MLK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of his evidence is claims of odd shadows in pictures and assertions along the lines of "outer space radiation would kill anyone who went there." Such statements aren't suprising from someone who isn't a scientist or photographer, but are hardly evidence of a hoax. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trilete312 0 #22 September 11, 2002 Second Guy on the moon. Did he lose at RoShamBo? I just want to know did Rock smash scissors or did Armstrongs Paper cover Buzz's Rock? The sad thing is Buzz will be in paper again issuing an apology trying to fend off the inevitable BS lawsuit. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sad thing is Buzz will be in paper again issuing an apology trying to fend off the inevitable BS lawsuit. Very good question. Aldrin was a military man, Armstrong was a civilian scientist. The political powers chose to have the first man on the moon not be a warrior, but a scientist. Probably best, considering the political climate at the time. The Soviets got to name all the stuff on the "dark" side. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then I wouldn't consider myself that - I'd consider myself to be part of the first mission to land on the moon. But that's just me. And whether I am last to dock or in the base on the 300-way record, I think I will feel the same way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
