Another Tragic Anniversary
I would like to solemnly, seriously remind you all of another sad anniversary so often forgot.
For it was on this day, 7 years ago, that our planet's moon was tragically blown from its orbit, and still, as far as we know, is lost in space, somewhere . . .

A moment of silence, please, for our brave heroes at Moonbase Alpha, and I'd like to thank Mr. Warren Ellis of reminding me of the importance of this date. How could I have forgotten?
Do you remember where YOU were, when we lost our moon?
UPDATE: I apologize to anyone who read the above before I fixed it, as I was off by 20 years in the date of the Moon's departure. I believe I was confused by the fact that the documentary footage above is from the 1970s, many years prior to the event it documents. As I recall this was made possible through a bizarre accident involving a gamma ray device, David McCallum, an AMC Pacer, the elusive Robert Denby, and a bottle of "Charlie."
