I'm sorry I only had the chance to watch those amazing Apollo years from afar. Must have been a fantastic experience.
BTW, I'm sure they did go to the moon. Human history shows you have to make the big steps asap before it becomes too expensive. In this case it is too expensive to repeat a moon visit until we see the next technology breakthrough... unless the Chinese decide it is worth spending $$$$ to show who is boss.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
