Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair...

Future Prediction: In 2024, the Chinese ambassador presents whatever Democrat machine politician or Brylcreem'd RINO we've put in the Oval Office with the flag Neil left on the moon.

Yep; and spend that night sleeping peacefully in the penthouse of the skyscraper he owns in New York City.

Alternate prediction: The Chinese ambassador asks for asylum/sanctuary in the US as his government falls in the civil war going on in his country.

He stands accused by the winning coalition of Chinese rebels of membership in the Communist Party, which carries an immediate death penalty should he ever be tried and convicted in China.

As almost the entire membership of the CP has been executed or died in the civil war already, he is granted asylum and goes to NH to live near the compound once occupied by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, a point emphasized by every news broadcast for weeks after the Chinese government finally falls.

That flag Niel planted at Tranquility Base? It has a Chinese rebel flag mounted next to it, in solidarity of humanity versus totalitarians.

I like your future better. I hope it's the one that happens.

Tam:

I have a $17.5 trillion dollar bet that your future wins...

I'll likely double down on that bet before 2016 ends.

Buzz: That should buy a cup of coffee by 2024.

Haha, joke's on you, China: the dollar-store flags we took up there have probably disintegrated already!

Echo: No, but it has been bleached white by the sun... which is kind of fitting in a strange sort of way.

I have a feeling that they will first give one of Alan Shepherd's golf ball's to BHO.
