[edit] Other boreholes

--Zegoma beach 18:27, 9 August 2005 (UTC) Should this article be linked to an article on the Kola Hole? http://www.ejge.com/iGEM/Articles/MoHole/MoHole.htm

[edit] Significant reversion

I reverted to Revision as of 04:23, 21 September 2005 Vsmith because too much material was copied from http://www.nas.edu/history/mohole/. (SEWilco 15:33, 3 September 2006 (UTC))

I uploaded the second one on Commons with permission from Friede & Goldman. The other ones are in the public domain. I have e-mailed both NAS and NSF and the reply was that it is in the public domain. NSF did ask to be creditted, which I did on Commons. BoH 16:56, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

You uploaded article text to Commons? (SEWilco 02:22, 4 September 2006 (UTC))

No, the photo's. But I see that you have placed them back already. BoH 12:33, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pop-culture mention

One thing I can remember from when I was a little kid was that, around 1969 or 1970, the comic strip The Captain and the Kids had a long continued story that used Project Mohole as its background, and somehow tied it into some sort of convoluted sinister plot by an arch-villain to conquer the world from an undersea base that the heroes ultimately defeated. The story went on for months in the Sunday strips, as I recall. *Dan T.* 16:05, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
