On NASA Astronaut and Chemical Engineer, Don Pettit, Proclaiming that, "We Don't Have the Technology to Go to the Moon Anymore" BECAUSE "We Destroyed that Technology"

I can only see possibilities here. Either the dude's lying and we never went to the fucking moon (a 480,000 mile round-trip - contrast that with the fact that today we can only go about 400 miles above the earth's surface, mainly because of the Van Allen Radiation Belts) or he's telling the truth and this is one of the biggest scandals, crimes, and/or fuckups in world history. Either way you'd think that the media would display a little more interest. Damn, huh?
