I find it unfathomable as to why people persist in using Roman
numerals for any purpose of any kind. Though I suppose it wouldn't be a
fun day at the movies without an unreadable copyright date.

It goes with saying, sci.math guys know Roman Numerals,

The first time I saw a movie with the line "Copyright CC" I didn't know what
it meant until I thought about it a while. It fell outside my experience
that all copyright dates began with "MCM..."

On the other side of the coin, I remember ages ago, back in the late
'70s, when President Carter was introducing the crew of Apollo 11 at
their ten year anniversary party. As he read the prepared speach, he
uttered the words, "...the crew of Apollo two..."

The Apollo 17 returned with an astounding 240#'s of moon
rocks, which of course necessitated leaving one of the
astronauts on the moon, although not for the cannibalistic
reasons widely circulated in the press. Indeed there is no
evidence to support the lunar cannibalism theory, that's a
"crackpot" notion.

In the "Zaputer Film" where only two astronauts were filmed
actually leaving the capsule, the third astronaut is "explained
away" as having parachuted down and pick-up earlier.
But his astronaut suit is "dry" as he is filmed later.

He was a near twin of the stranded astronaut, except for the
mole on his left cheek should have been on his elbow, and
that's the "smokin gun". NASA's explanation that he ate
a hot-dog and missed his mouth and left a piece of relish
on his cheek, does not explain the missing "elbow mole",
not evident in the film.

Additionally, NASA refuses to do a DNA analysis that would
PROVE he is the same person!

Astounding
SPACE AGE TRUTHS.

Do you really think that XIIIX is a Roman numeral for 17?

Cant be, XII+ IX = 21.
