Finally someone speaking some sense! I knew I could count on you Oddbod.
It amazes me how much faith some people put in some of these conspiracy theories, especially when the so called facts used to back them up are as questionable as the things they are trying to debunk in the first place.
Personally I could care less about any of this stuff. I prefer to concern myself with things in the here and now which I actually have some influence over. Not an event which happened 5 years ago in a country thousands of miles away, which may or may not have involved a government that I had no influence over being in power. Yes I sympathise with those who lost their lives and their families but there is nothing we can do to bring them back.
As for my intelligence, I don't feel the need to prove it to anyone these days. The last time I felt the need to prove it was when I got my degree which allowed me to get a very good job. Now I just let my work speak for itself.
Piper, you may find once you grow up a bit more and venture into the real world, that intelligence isn't actually measured on how well you can play stupid little games or use cheesey American high school phrases to try and back up your point.
It was ashame that they didn't do much with the Lone Gunmen. I've got a few episodes on DVD and thought they were canny. Was not happy when they killed them off in the X-files.
As for this 911 thing, the threads Piper posted are interesting but, like all things of this nature, you have to take with a pinch of salt. America is run by George W Bush after all and we all know what the W stands for so anything is possible I suppose. As stated there are two sides to every story. There's more to 911 than any of us will ever know but would never make assumptions until viable evidence is presented. Look at the latest about the video of the so called plane hitting the Pentagon. Doesn't make sense and looks doctored. Then again it could be the Government trying to protect the public. I do actually know someone in the Pentagon and they told me a couple of things but can't say. All I will say is that the conspiracy minded people might want to be a bit more open minded. To be honest, all though it's all interesting, it should be something that should be left. It happened almost 5 years ago it is best left alone as we'll never know the truth.
Piper you should meet this bloke we know called Alan. He is well into this 911 conspiracy theory. By the way Piper, don't judge people's intelligence by this sort of thing. An intelligent person doesn't jump to conclusions at the first bits of evidence or without listening to both sides of the story like you seem to have done. Sounds like you're being a bit narrow minded. You might want to start listening to the likes of Oddbodd and Nige or even me when I'm being serious and you might learn something.
Piper's clearly ran out of Cheesey American High School Phrases. _________________ "It's ok to be different, it's good to be different, and we should question ourselves before we judge others." -- Johnny Depp
Thank's Piper....Just wind the lads up, why don't ya, thats all I want. I go out with them sometimes and now they'll never shut up about this I know your game lassie, you were winding them up to see if they would bite. I like the three wise monkeys pic but I'd watch your back though, cos they're all pretty nifty with the old photoshop and the girl in pink could end up looking quite funny.... _________________ http://www.withintheshadowofthetree.com/

You didn't have to show us one of your family photos. Nice thought though. Which was is you? Bet it's the one at the back with his/her hand over their eyes.
