Just a side note to this discussion, and a suggestion for the "truthers" out there. Please go download "The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe" podcast and listen to a few episodes. You will find some 9-11 "truth" discussion there. Listening to that podcast will teach you how to think critically, rather than emotionally.

Remember, truthers are often the same people who believe in bigfoot, think they've seen UFOs, and that George Bush is a reptilian. In my books, science, reason, logic, and hard evidence always trump biased belief systems.

Even on Coast to Coast AM, a radio show that is as far away from skeptical as you can get, the debate is clearly won by the anti-truther physicist. Please listen to the radio recording on Youtube and decide for yourself. Lots of good stuff in this broadcast:

It's an 11 part series. Here's the link to part 1:

Yep, that truther dude was practically frothing at one point. Good entertainment that.

Oh, that's not condescending or anything... As if you're anymore of critical thinker than anyone else on here. Typical liberal hubris.

Worthless conjecture on your part.

Wow, the anti-truther got completely trounced in that debate. What a blubbering idiot... it was actually embarrassing to listen to (especially the part where a guy calls in and brings up the dozens of mainstream video clips available on youtube and elsewhere showing reporters at the scene with loud explosions in the background, and he simply replies "I have not seen those reports")... What a joke. If you actually think that hack Dave Thomas 'won' that debate, you must be high.

Did you listen to the whole thing? Dave Thomas clearly wins the debate.

So square patties are better than round after all?

This video "Loose Change" is worthless. Even "truthers" don't agree with it. There are several links I'll provide here which will prove my case.

The first one:

Loose change Guide:
http://www.loosechangeguide.com/LooseChangeGuide.html

Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loose_Change_%28film%29#Criticism

Here is a Blog called "Screw Loose Change" which debunks this video with sources.

Part 1:http://screwloosechange.blogspot.com/2006/05/top-lies-and-deceptions-of-loose.html

Part 2:http://screwloosechange.blogspot.com/2006/05/top-lies-and-deceptions-of-loose_15.html

Part 3: http://screwloosechange.blogspot.com/2006/05/top-lies-and-deceptions-in-loose.html

part 4: http://screwloosechange.blogspot.com/2006/05/top-lies-and-deceptions-in-loose_17.html

And to piss off the conspiracy theorists, here is "Loose Change Debunked" written by... who else... but... the EVIL GOVERNMENT who is COMING TO GET YOU!!!!!!!!!

Do you believe because you want to believe, or because the evidence overwhelmingly supports your theory?

Stop trying to sound clever, please. You're not that smart. Just because you watch the Daily Show every day and 'get' all the funny jokes doesn't make you 'enlightened'.

Isn't there an 9/11 sticky where the "truthers" agreed to post to avoid spamming the forums and annoying the rest of us?

I never signed on to it. And if annoying you is the price of posting here, I'd say it's a pretty fair deal Very Happy
