Thank you, Popular Mechanics

This month's cover story is a comprehensive debunking of the better-known 9/11 conspiracy theories, featuring several damning examples of ignorance, half-truths and blatant fabrications by the conspirozoid fringe. Essential reading.

Is this going to make Michael Rivero and Barrie Zwicker shut up? Don't be silly. If the Jews...er, neoconservatives control all the newspapers and television networks, it stands to reason that they'd control Popular Mechanics, right? Right?

Update: just as I predicted, the conspirozoids are dismissing Popular Mechanics as part of the conspiracy. This guy not only says that the magazine's experts are "suspects" in the 9/11 attacks, but even implies that the conspirozoid sites refuted by Popular Mechanics are themselves part of the conspiracy, to discredit the "9/11 skeptics" movement.

As Criswell said at the end of Plan 9 From Outer Space, "Can you prove it didn't happen?"
