Default Mechanics of gravity on the moon

Does someone on the moon fall at 1/6th of the speed on earth or at 2/5ths of the speed?

This has caused much more debate than I anticipated, so I wrote this vb app to prove it one way or another.

Do things on the moon move at 1/6th or half that of earth? (executable program)
Is gravity on the moon 1/6th or half that of earth? (source code)

What do you think?
