Great post! I agree that it seems the former Soviet Union has a vast wealth of information just waiting to be uncovered. It would seem that there is
a lot of potential here... the mind boggles at what is still hiding behind the proverbial curtain. (no pun intended, well- maybe a little).
I just started reading the Hoagland book about what a bunch of dirty snakes NASA is, so this has special relevance for me. You're getting a star for
this post!
As far as moon bases: I've read everything from the Nazis have been there since 1939, to "cloaking devices" on current bases. Oh wait, that was
just now. I'm still a bit skeptical on this whole mess, but I do have a special place in my heart for moon colonies, a la "The Moon is a Harsh
Mistress", aka the best book ever written!
As for the poster who says that color should be spelled "colour"... Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't my country stop taking orders on
anything from your country in 1813? (see Battle of Lake Erie, Battle of New Orleans, etc).

Just saying... I still love the Union Jack.
