Well, the radiation belt for one. Considering how thin the walls of the Apollo lander were, it would not even come close to protecting the astronauts from the levels of radiation that are known to be in there. Then there is the footage of the landing that was shot. When sped up by one speed, it moves at the same rate as if it were filmed right here on earth. There is other stuff, too. Damn I wish I had a copy of that documentary I saw. Not that I necessarily believe it. But it's a strong argument against the lunar landing and it's just plain fun to watch.

Ouch! Is that for real? I guess there would have to be one heckuva markdown considering the overall condition of the place.

Go CUBS. Go BEARS. Go PISTONS. Ummm... that's about it.

I didn't want to be quite so obvious. Not that I wasn't thinking it.

And, Motti, my wife knows of my Garner obsession. Nice try. Care to play again?

Don't forget that there is also the Hybrid SACD which plays on both. I tried one out recently (Albert King and Stevie Ray Vaughan live set) and it works perfectly fine on a conventional CD/DVD player. So DualDisc is not alone and the Hybrids are already available.
