"...Makes one wonder if all of the TWA 800 conspiricy theorists may have been right..."

I give daily demonstrations of the laughability of the gummints 'explanation' of the 'exploding-empty-fuel-tank-theory' on TWA 800.

I have a large galv'd pan in my garage, half filled with JP-4 jet fuel (kerosene by another name), with a nice fitted lid, and I use it for cleaning car-parts, boat-parts, and any other greasy-ass things.

I invite anyone who wishes to, to attempt to ignite the so-called fumes there-in through a small hole in the lid.

We've tried lit matches, burning-steel-wool(why do I know that?), and even high-voltage sparks! Nothing - nada - zilch!

But I'm not a conspiracy-theorist! An explosion blew TWA 800 out of the sky alright, but it twern't no kerosene explosion! We'll probably never learn the truth in our lifetimes, so I'm goin' fishin'!.................FRegards

I'm not a conspiracy theorist either. I remember live television interviews (I think CNN) of people (more than one) who were out on their boats etc. and stated they saw a streak go across the sky and hit the airliner...
