What’s this “we” Sh*t?

In their inceasing self-promotion as the source of reference for all the acceptable knowledge in the universe, the BBC World Service, advertising for one of its’ online programs, on about the Apollo 11 moon landing on this, it’s 40th anniversary. The tag line was that it was the age where “we” went to the moon, making no mention whatsoever that while a few Britons were involved, Britain wasn’t, and that it was not “man as a whole” that pulled this off, it was the United States whom they seem loath to mention in the context of anything positive.

True to form, the usual freaks on the Continent never saw an old crackpot theory that they couldn’t recycle. In the same spirit of another 40th anniversary, there are more than enough of them trotting out whatever lunacy they can find. Surely they will dead-parrot scetch the script of Capricorn One before the week is out.

If it makes you feel better, just tell yourself that this never happened. M’kay?
