	First Bill Buckley now Bill Safire. Two of the few remaining intelligent conservatives within the space of so short at time. Meanwhile the movement they both were so identified with - the movement they both tried to defend from the criminals and kooks - continues to implode.

	Wow an historical "what if" that you can read the actual press release for. Noticed WikiSource has a copy since gov docs are public domain. http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/In_Event_of_Moon_Disaster (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Nice, though I have to say I like looking at the original typed versions. Anything stopping WikiSource from hosting them? (Reply to this) (Parent)
