Brianna Wu / John Walker Flynt - "Biggest Victim of Gamergate," Failed Game Developer, Failed Congressional Candidate

Brianna's idea of someone "Throwing rocks at the earth from the moon" most likely came from "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress" by Robert Heinlein. In that story, a moon colony rebels against Earth's control, and their main (and only) weapon is a mass driver which was used to deliver mined ore to earth's oceans which they repurpose to threaten to drop said ore on earth's cities.

They have to lob softballs or else any actual hard question will make Bribri go into snarling manbeast mode for the rest of the interview and pretty much waste everybody's time with nothing to show for it.

You usually know how long you have for an interview so wait until you have anything you actually need, which is really about nothing in John's case. He has nothing of any interest to say. Then you ask your question that will cause him to flip out and start screeching once you have your ten minutes or whatever.
 
The fastest trip from Low Earth Orbit to the Moon took several hours at an average speed of 16km/s.

Rocks dropped from the moon are a shitty Doomsday Weapon, I must say.

On the other hand, seeing how nuclear power plants are nowadays owned by private companies, that is sufficient power to fuck up entire countries - no need to put some Dr. Eggman-style scheme into action.

But, then again, this is coming from the same person that gave us Revolution60, so what knowledge concerning space-stuff can we expect?
I wish I could rate this two times...
