shit:

I really don't want to hear any more of these idiotic hypotheses about Zap-ray-guns shooting down Wellstone's plane. I've been a commercial pilot since 1963 and an aeronautical engineer since 64. I have worked with the NTSB on many occasions and I know they probably the LEAST political outfit in the government. If any tinfoiler wants to tell me about laser-rays, EMP bursts, flying saucers or any of the other exotic and ridiculous propositions I've seen, keep it to yourself because I WILL put any such poster on permanent ignore. There is no discussion or negotiation on this matter.

1. Unfortunately...
That won't deter them from continuing to post their unsubstantiated theories.

2. Well, I won't see them. No wonder so many rightwingers think we're
nutcases...

10. Well, many rightwingers actually ARE!
:) I remember way back near the turning of the millenium, many of them were stashing away GOLD and hiding out in the boonies and bomb shelters! Some were talking of black helicopters.

3. Nor will it keep them from FORCING people to read the threads.

4. And your point is?
Your post is unclear. What do you mean?

5. I think the posts are somewhat nutty...

Nothing is impossible... Either way in regards to those who read the post and complain about them... no one forces anyone to read them... That's what you're saying, correct?

9. LOL. I agree.
True, not reading the posts won't make them go away. However whenever you have an open(ish) forum like this you are going to attract those with radical ideas. Oh well. The majority of posters here make good sense, and the rest add interest.

12. Exactly! And that is precisely why we ridicule fundy literalists.

14. Dude... STOP THE PRESSES!
Just playing Devil's Advocate here, but you just said there is no discussion or negotiation on this matter... Um... Why the hell did you start a thread on it then? :shrug:

17. Good idea.
I don't understand the conspiracy police mentality. If you don't like it, don't read it or put the poster(s) on ignore. Nice move.
