Just a few weeks ago NASA smacked the moon with an old space ship they no longer wanted and declared that they saw water, 25 whole gallons of it, in the resulting plume of ejected material. Now
A website based in India has reported researchers with the Chandrayaan-1 mission may have found “signs of life in some form or the other on the Moon.” http://bit.ly/6veERB
I’ve just got to wonder how many times we can smack the moon with projectiles before they start shooting back?
(NB for the humor impaired: This is actually a gentle dig at the “we are not alone crowd”. Of course, we’re not alone you sillies … there’s over 7 billion of us happily reproducing on this increasingly crowded planet. Of these, it would appear that roughly every10th one is armed to the teeth and willing to shoot in whatever direction some politician tells them to. Oh, and there are a few million homosexuals who, thankfully, don’t reproduce; although some of them can shoot.
Not to mention God and his faithful created spirit creatures who are shortly going to put an end to all of this gunfire nonsense. Not that you believe that God exists … but that’s okay, it’s not a requirement.)
