Credit[edit]

A citation I just added was taken from Stolen and missing moon rocks. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 22:27, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Turns out the citation was already in this article. I tweaked it, but the underlying thought still came from the article. Paraphrased here. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 22:38, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
