Moon’s Dark Side
What would happen if we got the dark side of the moon to face us?
———- from Peque Gallaga of Mandaluyong, Metro Manila, Phillipines
We would all go insane within a matter of weeks. Imagine having the face of character actor Edgar Buchanan (you might remember him as Petticoat Junction’s Uncle Joe) leering at you every moonlit night. Viewers south of the equator would see the masked Mexican wrestler Ultraman, or his predecessor El Santo (depending on the age of the viewer). In any case, it would prove so disconcerting that whatever other problems or concerns one might have would suddenly shrivel in magnitude, as we began to lose our sense of proportion, propriety, reality and finally self. No, there are some things that Science should not toy with.
