that's why my book's list of putative achievements of the US government has it as "NASA allowed people to probe the Moon for Limburger."

This kind of test, of course, explains why Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin went to the moon. -- Jim Devine / "To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole." -- Nuremberg Tribunal
