If I'm not mistaken, this hadn't happened on such a scale to Americans before,

Correct, while we have experienced terrorism at home a couple of times, it was never on this scale. Also there has never been a terrorist attack anywhere on this scale anywhere before. Also, we have experienced terrorism abroad, IE attacks on embassies and the like.

Of course, and it's a shock that still resounds years later, and people still want to find out what happened. Rather normal, really.

But when a poster posits an angle that it's part of a larger conspiracy, in a forum of logical thinkers (for the most part) he is going to be mocked.

[/ QUOTE ]
Wouldn't the logical thing to do if these conspiracy folk were really just wild loons to just ignore them and let them be? I know that is not as much fun, it's just a lot more prudent.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, a few posters tried that and when it became clear this wouldn't serve him, the mockery began.

While deplorable, 9/11 is a single incident, using it as a rationale to further any kind of conspiracy agenda is at best Pyrrhic.

Here is how I see the whole issue. I don't know a lot of what happened, I probably will never get the complete answers I want. Although that is not going to stop me from trying to find them. On 9-11 a lot of things happened that do not sit well with me. All I want is to find discussions about the event where everything does not turn into wild accusations and lolcats. I think that Borodog's posting of the conversation with Neilso, while rude to post a private conversation without consent, is what I am looking for.

Perhaps he was just attempting to point out Nielsio's state of mind and reluctance to accept a logical conclusion using science in a none-too-subtle way. GL with the search though, and try not to let it twist your rational outlook on the events. If you find the answers you seek, all well and good, and if that isn't enough, try not to accept any other explanation because the one given wasn't enough. That seems to be happening here.
