I'll have to admit, I'm also into the conspiracy thing but chances are, those guys did land on the moon. As far as the flag waving, there's actually a pretty simple explanation for that one. Not every waving flag needs a breeze -- at least not in space. When astronauts were planting the flagpole they rotated it back and forth to better penetrate the lunar soil (anyone who's set a blunt tent-post will know how this works). So of course the flag waved! Unfurling a piece of rolled-up cloth with stored angular momentum will naturally result in waves and ripples -- no breeze required! Just a little tidbit.
