Have at it guys. Just remember they must be about conspiracy theories, they must be funny and they must have a source.

Looks like October is going to produce a bumper crop.

Look, maybe this is old hat to the regulars here, but I've gotta say that I'm impressed with the theory found at letsrollforums.com in the subject

simple-mathematical-proof-missing-t23080

suffixed with html. (Someone with the power to post URLS could post this for others.)

Simply put: The towers were missing around 40 floors *prior* to 9/11. I'm not sure just how long the floors were missing, but obviously this shows the level of preparation (and secrecy) the job required.

:eye-poppi
 
I'll repost this here, since the "rules" won't allow for it to be considered in the September Stundies. Something about "it not being September anymore" or some such nonsense.

Typical idiot truther:

well how do you explain the towers falling at free fall speed that only happens in a controlled demolition. And everything was shredded and pulverized. which also cant be explained.


Rational person:

The time required to strip off a floor, according to Frank Greening, is a maximum of about 110 milliseconds = 0.110 seconds. It is rather the conservation of momentum that slowed the collapse together with a small additional time for the destruction of each floor.

Below are calculations from a physics blogger...

When I did the calculations, what I got for a thousand feet was about nine seconds- let's see,
d = 1/2at^2
so
t = (2d/a)^1/2

(lots of math follows)

Who ever wrote those calculations obviously did it to confuse and perplex the conspiracy theorist.

Conclusion: Mathematics was an inside job!!!*

Erm.... perhaps not.

Well, I learned it from Phil Jayhan over on LetsRollForums.

But I hope you do realize I was only funnin'. I came here just to share some new (to me) and very odd 9/11 conspiracies I had come by.

I had assumed, given your funny question, that you understood this, but since at least two other folks here have misinterpreted my posts.

Nomination withdrawn.
 
BeAChooser has declared that anyone who isn't arguing with him must be agreeing totally with him!

So who do you consider rational?
LOL! Well, of course, all the posters on the forum who haven't tried to challenge the allegation. They apparently can see who actually is the one looking at the totality of the facts and has them on his side on this case, versus the posters who are studiously avoiding the facts and keep making unsupported and often downright false claims in truther-like fashion.

Hear that everyone? If you haven't argued with him, you must agree that the Foster case was murder! I never knew I was so outnumbered in this argument!

I always knew I was the most awesome person in the entire universe. It's great to know that every sentient being on this planet and others agrees with me.

There were a couple of nominations in the September thread that were for material posted in October - are you planning to include them in this month's crop?

This thread is supposed to be for nominating quotes for the Stundies, not importing bickering from other threads.

curb the condescending tone, bert..
nobody says lunar vacuum..nobody!...lunar sky yup, hear it all the time!!!
point is sunlight shines the moon surface, moon surface reflect/bounce light
back onto the sky we should be able to see this blanket of sunlight on nasa's
moon pictures, the fact that we don't...prove the hoax..


the irony in your explanation/argument is neil armstrong...unless neil was
gazing directly into the sun he should have had no trouble seeing stars what
you're saying invalidate his given excuse for not seeing stars..his sightseeing
were limited to only lunar crater dusts and the heavens 'STARS'..

had armstrong turn his back facing the sun his head the opposite direction he
would have easily seen stars according to you and all nasa moon picture showing
this pitchblack space view...we have no problem seeing stars on earth when the
sky is as dark even with our clouds/atmosphere....

my point is...

moon gravity should trap sunlight just as earth gravity does.

It's almost beautiful. Every time I read it, I find something new that's horribly wrong with the writer's understanding of how anything works. You could drive intelligent men mad by forcing them to read it repeatedly.
