    Some people just love to be able to say ‘I know something that you don’t.’

    Too many people + way too much free time + the internet = Conspiracy time.

      Hello Herlock,

      I think you are right. It is probably very satisfying for them to say "so you are one of those fools who really believes that men landed on the moon."

        What is wrong with these people? They seem rational and fairly well educated. Can anybody explain this?

              I was trying to think of some smart arse joke about Michelle Obama as a man and c.d. to mean cross dresser but I’ll leave that one alone I think

                  There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

                    Just saw WAKE IN FRIGHT (aka OUTBACK) the other night... I just wanted an excuse to mention it because its a damn good movie.
                    I’m often irrelevant. It confuses people.

                      conspiracy theories have been around forever...but the internet really made it blow up...because anyone can write up anything and make it look very legit...and, well, sometimes the theories are born out of manipulation....anti government stuff to help sell weapons and "survival products" etc... but it is quite sad to see how many people buy into really INSANE ideas (flat earth etc)

                        Caught a TV documentary last night called "Helltown", about a supposed town in Ohio, Boston, which was evacuated in the 1970s by the government. It's a national park now, they saw, and the town's not the maps anymore.

                        Strange stories of cult groups, mysterious legends of a dangerous creature dating back to Native American days, and the very strange story of the only survivor from a military recon team sent in in the 1970s.
