Heard from some folks at the Oscars that there's an email/forward going around claiming an 9/11 connection with verse 9:11 in the Koran. I want you to just take s guess whether or not it's true.

The answer.

Come on, people. Looking for conspiracies is a fundimentally disempowering way to analyze reality. It's a cop-out. Yeah, the odds are stacked; but that's not exactly a fucking secret, now is it?

And also, while we're at it, although it's clear that there are some unanswered questions about what exactly happened on 9/11, the idea that those events were part of a deliberate plan which was orchestrated by the power-elite of this country is one without a factual basis. Making that accusation, even by inference, without some kind of real evidence is, in my opinion, the height of counterproductivity.

I understand the allure of drama and intrigue (fnord) but this isn't an ok thing to jerk around about. Even Oliver Stone realizes that, you dig?

So give the conspiracy a rest. If you need something to do, get to work on that biodesil algae pond.
