You underestimate the power of cognitive dissonance. One of the most intelligent chemistry professors I ever had is an evangelical Christian. Although he knows the scientific method and thinks critically about his work, he certainly doesn't carry that over to his personal beliefs.
I suspect we are witnessing the same thing with Dr. Blevins. For some deep-rooted reason, she would rather believe in the "space beam theory" than apply critical thought to the events of 9/11. Publicly available information on the Internet, in addition to her Facebook profile, seems to confirm that she is who she says she is and she does indeed believe in Judy Woods' theory. And don't forget all of the other people who simultaneously hold PhD's while being part of the twoofer movement: Judy Wood, Steven Jones and friends, Griffin to name a few.
Judy Wood doesn't talk about "space beams". She talks about field effects. Field effects aren't space beams.
The person who started calling her work "space beams" is the same person, Steven Jones, who debunked nuclear fusion at low temperatures, in part by calling it "cold fusion" when it isn't a cold process. His strategy? Call the process a funny name and debunk the joke. He got famous in the 1980s for participating in a witch hunt against Pons and Fleischmann, who invented the method that created nuclear fusion events using commonly available chemicals and reasonable temperatures.
Guess what Steven Jones' next big thing was? Denying cold fusion events at Ground Zero. In the 80's, Jones debunked cold fusion with the embarrassing admission that his laboratory was unable to replicate Pons and Fleischmann's work. (Jones is a bad scientist, so P&F are frauds? nonsense)
Recently, he has attempted to debunk cold fusion events at Ground Zero by proposing a ridiculous and extremely hot method of destruction with exotic explosive materials. He's still debunking cold fusion. And he's the one who called Dr. Wood's work "space beams"?
As far as that idiot, James Fetzer, he can go participate in onanism for another 35 years, and the search for the real weapon used on 9/11 would not be slowed. Ask the guy directly, "Who killed JFK?" and he can't answer. An abject failure of a life, I'd say. This creep masqueraded for years, calling himself "Judy Wood's biggest fan" when he was actually one of her most ardent detractors. He tried to get Judy Wood to APOLOGIZE to Steven Jones for pointing out Jones' idiotic comment that "aluminum is silver at all temperatures", and Wood's graduate student, who demonstrated that Jones was wrong was mysteriously murdered near the hometown of James Fetzer.
Did James Fetzer, a self-styled conspiracy researcher, get off his duff and research the murder of the graduate student of Dr. Wood? No, he didn't. He had other more pressing needs, or so he said. James Fetzer is not a colleague of mine or of Judy Wood. He has a PhD, maybe, but it isn't a science degree. It's a history degree.
The only two theories of what destroyed the World Trade Center towers that deserve any merit are those of Jones and Wood, but Jones was debunked in 2004 by yours truly. No hot process could have destroyed the WTC because of all the survivors who did not report burns. They were expecting burn victims at all the local hospitals in NYC, but none arrived. Several of my personal acquaintances were caught up in the dust cloud and none of them were burned.
Steven Jones is a cold-fusion debunker, first and foremost, and James Fetzer is his lackey-come-lately who ONLY STUDIES CONSPIRACY THEORIES.
Whether you all know it or not, these two men are evil and have nothing to do with Judy Wood and her science.
