New 'Transformers' Trailer Rewrites Moon Landing History - MOVIE TALK on Yahoo! Movies

Man I can't wait for this next installment to the Transformer movies. It looks great and Michael Bay won't disappoint at all....does he ever? LOL.

Apparently, all the greatest endeavors in human history have been to hide the existence of Transformers.

In the first "Transformers," they said that the Hoover Dam was built to hide the All Spark cube that landed on Earth. And in the second movie, "Revenge of the Fallen," it was revealed that one of the Great Pyramids housed a doomsday device that had the power to destroy our sun. Now it turns out that our entire space program in the 1960s was just a cover to investigate a massive alien spacecraft that crashed on the dark side of the Moon.

Paramount Pictures just released the first look at next summer's "Transformers: Dark of the Moon," director Michael Bay's third and apparently final film with the robots in disguise. According to the trailer, when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were in radio silence on the Moon's far side, they engaged in a secret mission to check out the giant Transformer lying dormant on the surface.

Marshall Islands Disappearing

Yesterday I read a very interesting article regarding the island nation of the Marshall Islands and the fact that it is disappearing.  The ocean is rising and covering the land.  Why this is so near and dear to me is that I spent 6 1/2 years of my life on one of the atoll within the Republic of the Marshall Islands.  Some of the best memories in my life are from the time I spent on Kwajalein and the Marshall people are some of the most nicest people one can meet and befriend.  I am concerned about their economy which was never great to begin with and it is my hope, that the United Nations will help this small nation of islands and it's people.
