ChrLzs Posted October 26, 2015 #7 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Were those posts meant to be funny, QxC and FBW? If not, then how about you bravely take your claims/doubts to an Apollo denial thread, where they will be dealt with and ceremoniously placed in the "Only Believed by the Completely Uninformed" basket. Please check that your chosen 'evidence' has not been fully and utterly debunked in the past. Now, getting back on topic.. like Toast, if I was rich, that's the sort of historical trinket I'd want. Much rather that than.. oh say, Excalibur.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
