ithoughti old hand Registered: 17/07/2001 Posts: 721 Loc: Boston, MA USA	. so back in 1980, an American called Dennis Hope filed his claim to the Moon with the Russian and American governments… and neither superpowers have contested it since. Since then Dennis has sold hundreds of thousands of acres of the Moon to owners all over the world… and now you can have your very own piece of Moon too! you have got to be kidding me. _________________________ --------- //matt

The deeds will be useless if we ever do colonise them for anything. No sane government is going to accept his claim on them. Good gimmick though and it must have made him a tidy profit over the years. What's weird is that I was actually on that site earlier buying stuff for presents
