Wait till you hear about their 'Knowledge Equity Fund' which sprays about 5 million around various organisations that have no connection to wikis but look good on Twitter. First on the list: paying Jordanian journalists to teach other media in the Middle East to be less racist. Not exactly what their "holy shit, we're about to go bust help us keep the servers on or it'll be your fault" fundraising leads you to think. Actually the hosting bill is about the same as their KEF: about 5 million.

Well, in that case they can always find an excuse to be a completely unsalvageable nutter because while everyone knows the NTRS is //clearly// under Illuminati control, what they don't want you to think about is what if the Internet Archive and Wayback Machine can have results inserted surreptitiously and

Brewster Kahle is in on it? In which case I guess the 1974 Apollo 17 Preliminary Science Report that was added to the IA back in 2016 won't help much: https://archive.org/details/NA...

Not to mention Documentation and Environment of the Apollo 17 Samples: A Preliminary Report is a 1973 report that lists container 73001 as a "Core sample vacuum container" on page 208. Containing a location map on page 2a and a sample description and photos of the sampler on page 98-99, and even astronaut audio transcripts during the collection which you could cross-match with actual audio.

Unless you //personally// saw the document "last year" you can never "prove" that it wasn't dummied up by the NSA last week and sneakily injected onto the internet and placed into archives around the world as needed. And even then, they might be MKULTRA'ing you to just //think// you saw it.
