Popular Mechanics - 9/11 Debunking the Myths
sites internet publications and conspiracy theories, and addresses the theories expressed here, and on "alternative news" and "investigation" websites.
One of the many things that bother me about the conspiracy websites:
Quote:
WTC 7 Collapse
CLAIM: Seven hours after the two towers fell, the 47-story WTC 7 collapsed. According to 911review.org: "The video clearly shows that it was not a collapse subsequent to a fire, but rather a controlled demolition: amongst the Internet investigators, the jury is in on this one."

If the extent of your research is watching the video, you could at least site a credible source. e.g. an expert on any relevant subject other than blogging.
if lifesaver can debunk the Pentagon/plane/missle conpiracy theory with a beer can and a sidewalk, then the theory didn't hold much water in the first place. (the PM link also addresses that theory, in case you don't believe in beer cans and sidewalks.)
i support anyone out there trying to find "the truth," but just throwing out ideas (really bad ones,) does a diservice to everyone who actually puts out facts. even googling for facts on this was needle/hastack, turning up a googolplex of material to sift through.
however, some theories turn out to be true. Mets' relief pitcher, Roger McDowell spit on Kramer and Newman.
