Having argued with twoof...Thank you for this post.<br /><br />Having argued with twoofers, conspiracists, terrorist apologists, deniers or just about any general degenerates, I've since learned that it is better to simply ignore them or ridicule them than to try to logically argue with them as they are pretty much constitutionally incapable of reasoned arguments and debate.<br /><br />The real mystery is how such a loose collective of failed abortions have managed to not spontaneously miscarry themselves before birth, ha!<br /><br />Maybe twoofers make more sense than we originally thought: (read further I'm going somewhere with this) Maybe "twoofism" is nature's way of telling us to stay the hell away from the organism (the twoofer) as the "infected" individuals could carry deleterious mutation. So from an evolutionary perspective they would serve a function! That...or you know, they just suck :P<br /><br />Twoofers, sucks to be you (yeah, 'you') Ha!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08329369937261236926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13030925.post-45906361494486341042009-09-14T10:07:19.889-05:002009-09-14T10:07:19.889-05:00Watched another big chunk of the show, and liking ...Watched another big chunk of the show, and liking it still more. Got to hear one of the demolition experts crack the joke about the conspirators needing "stealth ninjas" to pull the job off.<br /><br />Did like the thermite experiment. Twoofer appeals to "super-" and "nano-" thermite (real stuff, btw) fell kind of flat: Yeah, I'm sure that stuff has some real nifty advantages, but I don't see how being able to paint it on, having finer "nano" granules or whatever is going to make it that much more powerful. 175 pounds of the regular stuff wasn't able to damage a much thinner beam. I doubt a layer of painted thermite would do any better, even if it was more efficient or whatever.<br /><br />There's only so much energy you can get out of available mass.<br /><br />The show also went into the motivations behind conspiracy theories: Denial and narrative. In short, they can't accept that some low-tech guys were able to cause so much damage, just like many people couldn't accept that a lone gunman was able to kill the President of the United States of America. They also need to come up with stories that fit what they know. In short, a lot of them are trying to apply genre savvy to the real world.<br /><br />Additional point that was made: The number of conspirators needed to pull off the Goldberg device. It got LOL-funny with the hypothesis of "rogue" copies of the planes filling in for the real ones, that land at secret government airstrips.Bronze Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10938257296504189967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13030925.post-80090863591693052562009-09-05T22:01:41.149-05:002009-09-05T22:01:41.149-05:00Fixed. 747's just more iconic, so it stuck in ...Fixed. 747's just more iconic, so it stuck in my head, to my mistake.Bronze Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10938257296504189967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13030925.post-28377050818779133242009-09-05T16:28:38.262-05:002009-09-05T16:28:38.262-05:00Minor nitpick.

Doesn't change the point, but if I didn't say it a Truther would have popped up to do it instead. ;PJoshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11775844624180825326noreply@blogger.com
