Part I love best is that they are like old women gossiping across back fence. Each one reinforces the other's fears; not their facts or their logical deductions, but their fears.

Soon they are angry because we don't accept their fears masquerading as facts. It's like adding a string of numbers, 8+7+3+9+2+6+5. If you think 8+7 equal 13, the rest of the addition will be wrong, no matter how careful you are with the 3,9,2,6 or 5.

I wonder how many make these posts, 1, To see if anyone else wil bite, 2, From Junior High School or 3, From a padded room.

I wonder also, if we met some of these people in public, would we recognise them as someone needs professional help?

Many witnesses reported an explosion near the wing root. The only non-bomb hypothesis was the disintegrating engine. That didn't pan out. Saw a guy from NTSB interviewed on "Today"; he was definitely nervous, shuffling his feet, etc. The fix is in.

Surely, the biggies don't think it better to reassure the flying public than to save 200-300 random lives.

That would be worse than Watergate, Monicagate, Iran-Contra, you name it.

Some unofficial video will turn up. President Kennedy's assasins were pretty embarrassed by the home movies of that, which clearly indicated two shooters. The distrust of our government stems largely from that incident, the lies about Viet Nam, and Watergate. Innocence took a head shot the same day Kennedy did.
