Well I've been drinking 30 hours straight and you're wrong. They would have become vampire/frankensteins. A mix that has never been seen. God help us all.

And my latest troll in return:
[...] Solar radiation is a danger during short term missions ONLY if there is a Coronal Mass Ejection during the flight. The Apollo missions were flown during the "Solar Low" prtion of the 11 year cycle, and there were no CME's during those flights. In fact, there was only one CME during the whole Apollo era, and it took place between missions.[...]
BTW, just doing some fact checking. The Apollo missions actually occured during a solar maximum:

Also, CMEs occur quite often - about 5-6 per day during solar maximums but only about 1-2% of those are Earth-directed. A smaller proportion again of these has sufficient energy to release Solar Energetic Particles of concern to human spacefarers. So one CME in the Apollo era is not correct, one significant Solar Energetic Particle event in the whole era is correct (August 7, 1972):

those who disbelive space flight are really in a happy magical place. where the bizzarre is common place and all is misterious. must be some sort of bliz to not be burdened with knowledge or understanding having all things preordained to some ocult end.

In the Mid-Atlantic states
There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance

A planet of play things
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive
'The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign...'
Blame is better to give than receive...
