And I'm free to stay and will. I don't want to leave FR to the nutcases. Unfortunately, running people off FR has become quite the sport and they have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. I have noticed that the most active ones don't show up on Jim's list of donors, but I'm sure that they just don't want to advertise their monetary support of this forum (/Sarc)
I don't think it's "nutcase" behavior to speculate even somewhat humorously when something unexplained happens. If nothing else, we have to wonder how in this day, with all of the surveillance and monitoring, a huge plane could just disappear for this long. A rule of creative thinking is that sometimes a good idea is some really crazy thought, twisted and turned a bit.
The longer it takes to find an answer, the more valid crazy speculation becomes....as plausible explanations are eliminated.
