There was actually a group of people who preached that all of the
moon landings were a complete hoax, and that it was staged somewhere
in Ari(d)zona or New Mexico because the "terrain looks more like
Arizona or New Mexico, than the moon".  When asked how they knew what
the moon looked like (to make the comparison) - no answer.  Asked
about the earth in the background ("My, what a beautiful earth
tonight" - says Bugs Bunny while duking it out with Marvin the
Martian") -- they say "Background Scenery".

There's a skeptic in every group, eh?

Daffy Duck, or Elmer Fudd, etc. etc. etc.)
