the Concorde conspiracy

got into a discussion on facebook a couple of years ago (well, alright then an argument) there were the usual halfwits claiming the moon landings were faked. so I put forward a snippet that I'd read in the great gobshite Clarkson's book, I Know You Got Soul, in it he mentions talking to a NASA engineer who said 'compared to getting Concorde to work, putting a man on the moon was a doddle' I asked the question where are the Concorde conspiracists? it largely seemed to work.

the other day however I read (on the interweb) that there is now a generation that believes Concorde was a myth because we couldn't possibly have had supersonic passenger flight and now we dont. its a strange time in a strange world
