well we will have to disagree about that, going to the moon is very very difficult, governments lie to us all the time (weapons of mass distruction anyone?), secrets can be kept etc etc it is a possiblity that should not be discounted out of hand.

Putting a sub on the bottom of the ocean with out coming up for air, or fuel for a month is tough too - but no one questions that, and it was being done *before* putting men on the moon.
In more modern times, coordinating the gazillions (and yes that *is* a technical term  ) of bits flying around the web at anytime is even more preposterously difficult, yet that is not questioned.
And if the entire thing were a hoax why were there failures? If one is going to prepare a PR hoax involving thousands of people wouldn't one post a perfect record?
Oh this is a stupid discussion. The come back is "To make it SEEM more realistic". Yeah, and when I wake up you'll all be proven to be figments of my overfertile imagination too. I dare you to disprove that ... to ME.

Why? Why does it have to be investigated?
There are people stating they have been on the moon and there are people claiming they have not been on the moon. If I would have been on the moon and someone would come up to me and say that he doesn't believe it then I would show him my proof. If that person still doesn't believe it then so be it. Why should I go to any length to proof that I'm right and he is wrong. He wouldn't belief me whatever I did so it would be a futile task.
If I wouldn't have been to the moon then I would have nothing more to show either and I would react in the same way.
I doubt that NASA could do anything to make the disbelievers believe a I doubt that the disbelievers could actually discredit NASA with their proof. Where is the requirement in all this to do a full investigation as you claim?

If it was a hoax why didn't they "bring back" something more interesting than some stupid, boring rocks... like cheese man had never seen before!!!
