True.

My blood pressure rises when 9/11 researchers are called "conspiracy theorists." That really gets to me. Even in idle talk with folks who I think I am making headway with, when this term is used, I know I am suddenly losing the game. That's when I start in, "well, there are a lot of conspiracy theories out there including the one that has Moslem extremists conspiring while operating out of a cave in Afghanistan overseeing the events of that day. Mind you that while he was indicted for the bombing of American embassies and the 1996 Khobar Towers barracks bombing, Ossama has never been indicted for the crimes of 9/11. When the FBI was recently asked why Bin Ladin was never indicted, a spokesperson said he wasn't indicted because there wasn't enough evidence to indict him. So it would seem one theory is at least as good as the next."

But by that point the deal is closed. The term "conspiracy theorist" has been uttered. Minds close. Brainwaves go flat. Conversation over.
