It’s said that Moon dust smells like spent gunpowder….okay, but wouldn’t it make more sense if it were said that spent gunpowder smells like the Moon? After all, the moon has been around for several billions of years….where as gunpowder has only been around since the 9th century (from 801 to 900). So to say gunpowder is a relatively new discovery in comparison of it’s age and that of the Moon is a bit of an understatement. Thus spent gunpowder smells like Moon dust is the correct (and fair) way to structure that statement.
Thank you.
On the other hand, gun powder was smelled before moon dust so I think the first person to smell moon dust could rightfully say “hey this stuff smells like gun powder”.
The moon came first, gun powder came billions of years later. That is logic, I am right, you are wrong….then end. #BOOM
Really? Billions of years? That’s not logic, it’s guesswork.
Thanks for playing.
