This is the article to which he was responding: http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/whatmoon.jpg Here's the letter: As the former NASA intern serving eight years for the theft of moon rocks, I thought you might be interested in my response to "Whatever Happened to Moon Rocks?" [Data, July]. Imagine being able to give a piece of the moon to a young girl. Imagine watching her face as her little fingers slowly grasp that piece of heaven. She will embody the admirable essence of what it is to be human. She will be, at heart, an explorer ... with a little piece of the moon in her pocket. Thad Roberts Federal Prison Camp Florence, Colorado I wonder if his comments were so off-the-wall BEFORE meeting his boyfriend Bubba? ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Tue 12 Sep 2006 09:19:37 PM PDT |
