I don't get it. They sent a SWAT team into a Denny's to bum rush this little
old lady for attemping to sell a moon rock weighing a few grains,

when this guy is allowed to openly advertise and attempt to sell a rock
brought back by the Apollo 11 mission?

Maybe because it's a total fake? A meteorite picked up on the moon by
Apollo 11 astronauts, really?

Either way, fraudulent misrepresentation, or attempted public sale of Apollo
moon rocks, wouldn't this be against the law?
