    1. @Sky Stalker I guess there’s no point in discussing anything with the likes of yourself You can’t reason with a Heinz Pickle.

    2. @Timbo So the President of The United States of America sat and chatted to Astronauts on the Moon via a LANDLINE TELEPHONE in 1969.

      So you are saying that REALLY happened.

    3. ​@KEVIN HARTLES Let’s see. The President uses a telephone, telephone is connected to a landline which connects to NASA Ground Control that is relayed through radio then blasted out as radio waves that take a delay time of 1.3 seconds to reach the moon, and an additional 1.3 second delay for return. I remember watching all this on TV when I was a kid. And yes, it all happened. It was an amazing period of history, and will stick in my mind till the day I die.

    1. Meanwhile, you’re a moron with no idea how much tech and knowledge Canada contributes to space programs.

    2. @YJ Wrangler Meanwhile you’re the moron who doesn’t acknowledge the thief prime minister, and the fact I’m well aware of Canadarm and other Canadian contributions to the space program.

  1. Just missed the hurricane, how fortunate…still can’t launch if it might rain though..masterminds lol.
