@Adrian,
"The most convincing third party evidence, for me, are the LRRR's that were left behind."
Three things. First they weren't left behind, because they were put there by unmanned crafts, just exactly as the russians did.
Secondly, the reflectors aren't even needed. They could do this all very good
years before the alleged moonlandings.
Thirdly, there were no independent parties at all.
