Yes, sheer brilliance - I can't dispute that mountain of solid evidence!
What do you suggest nancy - Sheep really aren't too energetic, are they?
I suppose that being referred to as a "sheep" is better than being referred as a Cow.......... Not that it matters.
turbonium,
This is "our" actual first fisticuffs and it is very difficult to "discuss" in a rational demeanor with someone who does not approach any topic with an open mind.
All your research, all the "solid evidence" must have taken quite a bit of time and perseverance.
I have a question, please? Why don't you compile what you've found, references to your documentation, comparisons with "the truth" and your opinion of what really generated September 11, 2001 and contact the Powers That Be, in Washington, DC.
Simply request that this information be seriously considered and studied. Ah, I hear you say, "Trust DC?" .......... Is that even close?
Or? Contact the Press in all media. I'm sure you will get their attention.
However, if you know 1000% that your data is correct, the world needs to know, not just those of us who wander into "UM."
By the way? Your Profile does not provide any information about yourself. Years ago, I posted a Topic regarding this and the fact it makes it difficult to understand an individual who does not feel open enough to advise their gender, location, etc.
I am VERY proud to be born and raised in The USA, and have nothing to hide.
Nancy
*KISMIT* as usual? Your kind words, sanity and levelheadedness are a breath of long needed fresh air. Thank You Nice Woman xoxox[right][snapback]704540[/snapback][/right]

Wouldn't it be something if turbonium could direct all this misguided energy, into something usefull?
Well, nancy, first let me say I have never seen you post in this section until now. And the first thing I notice you contribute is an unprovoked slight towards my posts. First of all, you have the opinion that my efforts are "misguided" and not useful. Frankly, you're judgement of the value and direction of my information has a somewhat condescending tone, and is also very incorrect.. My posts have been argued against and agreed with. Then there are others who were not aware at all of the information, which is not surprising considering my sources are often alternative news sites, that many people don't follow. These people then become aware of something they would not have been if not for these posts - and they have often mentioned that they appreciate that I posted the info.
You also make the sweeping generalization of me as "irrational" and one who does not approach any topic with an open mind. Well, those are quite the "labels" you have put on me!! But, if you look at my posts anywhere in this forum, you might find slightly MORE irrational and closed minds arguing opposite to my opinions!! They are very easy to find - one post of mine will have a presentation of the topic with relevant links and sources quoted. The next opposing post will contain maybe one sentence, usually something like "That's just bull - no way that happened!" or "You're paranoid - my dad said that he knows a guy who saw everything, and it wasn't like that."
To say what I post is not useful and misguided, must mean that nothing positive comes from the information and subsequent discussion of same. You obviously don't see it, but I know that sharing and talking about subjects like this is VERY useful. Are you actually suggesting that sharing this information with the people on this forum is not useful? Is it misguided that the everyday John and Jane Q. Public has access to a discussion on a topic that might even be useful to their every day lives? Is raising the awareness of the world around us a useless endeavor?
Cow? Don't know what you're saying here - cows don't do much more than sheep - they also just mindlessly follow along with their group.
Now - contacting Gov't and media - another assumption you have made, for whatever reason, out of the blue, and another which is also incorrect. I have a very long list of those in both groups I have emailed. From Congressmen to Senators to Editors and Columnists of newspapers and called in to many radio talk shows about this information. I have signed several petitions that have been sent to "The Powers That Be" that have requested, pleaded and demanded that 9/11 be re-opened for an investigation that is completely independent and entirely open to public viewing, input and complaints. I'm nearly batting a thousand on lack of response. Except for enthusiastic contacts I have in the alternative media, who aren't owned by corporate interests. Others just plead ignorance (and guess what, with some of them , I believe it!). Automated replies, I have received by the dozens. They don't even acknowledge the topic in question!! Even the petitions have been ignored to date. Some of these number in the thousands of people. So don't think I haven't been trying. Despite this, I am still plugging away at it - some day maybe a letter to the editor will sneak past the watchdogs and be put in the LA, NY, Seattle Times, who knows - it's all controlled., but they are only human, so they might screw up! Or a kindred spirit will slip something in. And I still get in on the radio talk shows - as long as I'm not overly specific on what I'll be discussing to the screeners!! When I get on, I usually have about 20-30 seconds before they reply with something vague, change the subject, then go to a commercial as they silently cut me off!! (Hello? Hello?

)
What forum members do or do not choose to disclose about themselves is entirely their own decision, as it should be. And you should respect that without making any assumptions about the reasons for doing so. You are implying that those members who limit the personal information they display to the public are "hiding something". Sweeping generalizations like this are not only incorrect, but show a lack of respect for others by questioning the choices they alone have the right to make.
Those here who I know to a level of friendship know more about me than others through PM's between us. These people have earned my respect and trust to the point where if they want to know something about me, they need just ask me, and I will tell them. I dont "fear" divulging certain personal information. And besides which, how does posting where you live and your favorite author show that you aren't hiding anything? For all I know you could be a 6'5" man living in Papua New Guinea!! And guess what? I don't care!! The point is to come here, have fun, share a joke, maybe learn something you didn't know yesterday, and then maybe go out and play frisbee with your dog in the park, or visit your friends, or whatever...
