There is room on the world wide web for lots of forums. There is room for FR and LP. :))) I'll say this though. Jim Robinson and his crew keep this forum amazingly free of kooks, loons, anti-semites, Bush-haters, conspiracy nuts, lefties, and tin-foil hat types.

One of my biggest complaints about LP is that one must spend time deconstructing many of the conspiracy-theorists screeds. I knocked someone out who was claiming that no seismic vibrations (or severely lessened ones) would be felt from the 9/11 airliner strikes, because the dirt tends to absorb the shock.

Well, he asserted that, until I demonstrated that the WTC was anchored in bedrock, that is. :o)

Another had a conspiracist claiming that the WTC was brought down by demolition charges, and produced a video that supposedly showed demo-charge jets preceding the collapse.

I went frame-by-frame and deconstructed his theory.

So, unfortunately, precious time is wasted over there in refuting theories that are counter to which we normally would know is obvious. So that is my number-one complaint about LP.

Oh, and I really don't like the "Bush is a TRAITOR" stuff over there. I cringe every time I read it. He may be flawed, but he's no traitor.

The WTC would have to be anchored in bedrock, as close as it was to freestanding water and as heavy as it used to be.

They're still going over the WTC collapse over there? Oh dear, what a waste of time.

It won't matter how many times you debunk it, they will just post the identical mess somewhere else. I think the strategy is to wear all the debunkers out.
