Thanks for that timely wakeup call, Anon. I've only seen Loose Change half a dozen times, so I'm hoping that I'll glean something factual and informative from it on the seventh or eighth viewing.
Remember, Elvis didn't do drugs.

if you don't believe that the united states government had something to do with 9/11, swallow your pride and watch the movie "Loose Change: 911" (its on youtube for free) just because you don't want to believe it dosen't make everyone else wrong. the movie is jam packed with actual documented evidence suggesting to an extreme measure that our own government played a huge roll in planning and executing the attacks on the WTC in 2001. if you are 100% sure that you are right and our government is innocent, watch it anyway so you know what to argue against, don't just go by what other people tell you, that's a lazy ignorant way to live, learn for yourself and develop your own opinions. think for yourself for gods sake, were not children anymore so wake up and smell the governmental bullshit.

I wrote the last one too.This Elvis bun is fascinating stuff.It's really hard to track down anything remotely related to it except for the Nun Bun and the Lincoln Squirrel(RIP).
---an obvious wacko* once told me that the Elvis Bun had been seen at The Mall of America selling Amway,but this was later disputed as it may have been an Orange Julius from a stand and not home products from the trunk of his car. *dude was wearing an Izod polo shirt with a Polo oxford.Strange indeed.

Well here are couuple of really wild ones.

The US won the Korean War by nuking the British at the Alamo.

And---The disappearance of the Mother Theresa cinnamon bun(AKA "The Nun Bun")...it was born in Nashville,and disappeared on christmas eve...in a burglary from a business and was the only thing stolen.---but that's not the weird part.What's really weird is that the Elvis Bun disappeared in Memphis on a Xmas eve 4500 years ago in a similar coffee-shop robbery.

2009-02-08T10:26:00.000-08:00

Whoa crap Mark Zahn's been immortalized on the 'Net! His name really is Mark D. Zahn and he's a 39 year old originally from Wisconsin that is homeless and frequents Boulder, Littleton and the surrounding cities in Colorado. Been like that for approximately 12years it seems. His idols are Adolf Hitler, Jon Bon Jovi, and Thomas Jefferson. He's a paranoid schizo who believes himself to be the reincarnated Bruce Lee, Hitler, and Jefferson, amongst others. He believes there's a conspiracy out to get him since he left Wisconsin in 1996(?) led by the Canadian rock band Rush, Stephen Spielberg, George Lucas and his ex-girlfriend Virginia Newbon. Depending on what day it is other conspirators including the the Cho's Taekwondo instructional dojo in Wisconwin, Clint Eastwood, Wisconsin businessman Dick Strong (an ex-employer), Elvis Presley, and another ex-girlfriend Stephanie Freiboth. Hobbies include mountain biking, filming amateur home videos of his homeless adventures in and around Colorado and posting them on the Internet, watching movies to spot the conspiracy against him, and posting long rants on the public Usenet newsgroups of bands like Rush/Dream Theater/Bon Jovi and making them his own personal "blog" about his various conspiracy theories and thinking he's communicating directly with these people through psychic thoughts. Essentially he thinks he's the center of the universe.

2008-10-11T17:16:00.000-07:00

I used to believe in conspiracy theories, I bought into the David icke, William cooper bullshit. I realized that most of these conspiracies are just too far fetched to be believed. It all comes down to selling books, dvd's, and tickets to presentations by these people claiming to have uncovered some kind of hidden truth.
David icke charges about 45 euros a pop to hear him speak about reptillian humanoids that run earth, and how the elite want to implant RFID chips to control humans. Yeah if he cared about our well being he would give it away for free.
I got tired of waiting for certain events to take place, the end of the world, the new world order, the amero, the RFID chips, and blah blah blah. Conspiracy theorist deeply believe all this nonsense and when someone comes along and clarifies this they get mad and want you to believe the "special knowledge" they have. Then they say that you're a dissinformation agent or that you work for the government.
I ask all conspiracy theorist one thing, if the knowledge you posses is so secret, then how is it that you know it?
Seriously let's be real!

2008-08-27T14:40:00.000-07:00

I like how the 9/11 truthers have responded to matthew getting fed up with holding a debate on the comments thread with half a dozen anonymous posters under the same name - gets declared as "defeated" when offering to hold a consistent email discussion.

Claim: Kerosine doesn't burn hot enough to melt steel.

Fact: Correctomondo.

Assumption: The steel needed to melt to be structurally weakened.

Fact: Wrong.

---------

Claim: the WTC collapsed by thermite, straight down into itself as like a controlled demolition.

The obvious:
http://media.popularmechanics.com/images/911-south-tower-collapse.jpg
The thermite would have to be placed exactly where the collapse is seen here starting, exactly where the plane is going to crash.

But what about all the eye-witnesses that saw/heard/felt thermite on the ground floor? Buy one get one free? Bargain.

Here comes the deluge of insults. Get the popcorn ready.

2008-07-27T13:16:00.000-07:00

If you think about it really carefully, there are no conspiracy theories... And all you people are disccusing and arguing over (@Matthew), is a matter of opinion and influenced views.

Think about it. How do you believe a conspiracy theory started? It was either the "Goverenment" telling the truth to someone who would spread that truth to the world. Or, more likely, It was someone who saw what happened, and thought "but what if that never happened." And then he would spread THAT OPINION to the world.

Conspiracies are views. Views and Opinions. Nothing more, Nothing Less. This is my opinion, and I believe it is a fairly good one at that.

But Once again, To all of you. I don't mean to cause another Internet Argument or anything, at the end of the day, you believe what you want to. Infact...

There is only one conspiracy/opinion that i am interested into at the moment. That is the Mary Magdelin and Jesus Christ Conspiracy. This I am looking into alot more than anything else because this is not something that, (lets put 9/11 into context) can just shake the foundation of america if it really is a hoax. But if it is a hoax, This Christ Conspiracy could break down the entire world, and can cause either choatic confusion, or greater good to all the known religions in the world.

People believe what they want to. And all i ask, Is that every post after this.. what you believe about different conspiracies. Not why... Don't explain why you think what you do. Just say What the event ion history is and what you think of it. I'll start..

9/11 = Hoax
Christ = Definate Hoax, worth looking into.

I can name a few others but you get my drift. So please, don't dispute on what i have said today, this is just my opinion, and if someone thinks "We don't want to hear someones opinion" then... if you think hard about it.. you have done.. by listening to the "Conspiracies" over the internet. :D

Thank you for listening and please, put down what you think of the conspiracies.. not why you think that.

Thanks again :)

Steven W.

2008-04-01T18:26:00.000-07:00

"* The twin towers were SPECIFICALLY designed to withstand air crashes"

- No, the design was checked with the abilities they had in the 1960's to see if it would and they believed that the buildings were able too. They were right, the buildings DID withstand the crash; it was continuing damage from the fires that took them down.

"* WTC7 fell into its exact footprint due to a small fire "

- Not True, the collapse of WTC 7 damaged several nearby buildings, several bad enough that they have had to be, or are scheduled to be demolished. The fires according to the FDNY were not small but the largest office fire they had ever seen. It was described as multiple 6-alarm fires and the building being fully involved. Were the FDNY Firemen lying?

"* Never in the history of the world has a pancake collapse sped up, a 100floor+ building such as the twin towers would have a calculated pancake collapse time of over 1 min 30. The twin towers fell in 9 and 11 seconds, which is easier/quicker walking through a closed door, or one that is open, ie the floor below must have completely disintigrated before the one above even touched it"

- Incorrect. The collapses took 16-18 and 18-20 sec. Don't believe me, get a stop watch and time a video of them. NIST put the first panels hitting the ground at 10 sec for WTC 2 and 11 for WTC 1, and the rest of the collapse is still far above them at that time. Also ALL pancake collapses speed up as they happen, this is called physics. If the momentum is high enough for the energy to destroy the floor the building top impacts, then it is still moving after impact. The acceleration from gravity will then mean when it connects the next floor it will be moving faster than the previous. Thus the collapse MUST accelerate.

"* The hole in the pentagon did not have any marks where the wings would have hit, only a hole 16m in diameter."

Incorrect, the damage from the wings is quite obvious in the images and the entire hole in the ground floor was much wider.

"* The FBI have a tap showing something hit the pentagon, yet they only release 3 frames of it, none of which clearly show a plane, why dont they show the world the tape...if they have nothing to hide"

The Plane was moving around 400-500mph, it was only on 3 frames. Also the FBI didn't release it (the first leak was from the lawyers of the Victims' Families, and the second release was through the DoJ.) One of the Frames shows the plane itself, but due to resolution, focus, and the planes colour scheme it is admittedly hard to see.

"* You can see squibs (explosions used to demolish buildings) coming out of the side of WTC 1 and 2"

Incorrect. Firstly squibs are small firecrackers, not demolition charges. Secondly, the puffs of smoke and dust are flows, they speed up as the collapse gets closer. Explosions seen in CD result in fast ejections of smoke and debris that then slows. What is seen in the WTC collapse is totally the opposite of what would be see in an explosion.

"* The sniffer dogs used to detect bombs were removed a week before 9/11"

- Incorrect. The WTC was on heightened alert against a possible attack until the Friday before the attacks. As a result they had EXTRA security. The threat level was lowered and the extra security ended, but sniffer dogs and normal levels of security remained. One such dog is known to have died in the attacks.

"* The entire security system in WTC 1 and 2 were occasionally down in the weeks leading up to 9/11, meaning in those times there would be no CCTV"

- There has never been any evidence provided to substantiate that this claim is true. Claims of power downs have been conclusively shown to be untrue by the production of tickets to the skydecks and photos of the lit up towers during the supposed power down time.

"* WTC 7 was the first steel frame buildings in the history of the world to collapse due to fire alone, a building in madrid burned for 24 hours at 1000 degrees c, and yet did not collapse"

Incorrect. The Kader Toy factory was a steel framed building that collapsed due to fire alone. The Windsor Tower in Madrid was far smaller than the WTC, about the size of the core alone, and it had a concrete core. The outer steel shell of the Windsor Tower DID collapse!

"* The empire state building was hit by a bomber in ww2 that was lost in the fog, it still stands today"

The Empire State building is a classic column and beam structure, not open plan truss and tube like the WTC was, and it was hit by a slow moving B-27, a far smaller plane. It still suffered extensive fires and damage though.

"* Demolishion experts cut vertical columnes at 45 degrees, some pictures of the site after 9/11 show steel columns cut to exactly 45 degrees."

- And other pictures show the clean up crews cutting those steel columns at 45 degree angles with torches and thermic lances. The steel on the cut beams bear the striation marks of being cut by the clean up crews.

"Now thats quite a lot of evidence if you ask me"

- No, it's a lot of hockey and garbage dredged up by someone that only reads the conspiracy sites and has no idea what they are talking about.

2008-03-31T04:20:00.000-07:00

That fellow is not actually an architect in any accepted sense of the word, and as an alleged short-term underling to one of the principal designers, I question if he would actually have been privy to sensitive information of any kind. Even my Truther spouse found the interview highly suspect and of no value to his cause.
