    Realized that now. Why didn't they suspect the Soviets for being responsible for the assassination?

    Come ON. We all know the Americans were behind that particular assassination. (Sad but true, boys and girls.)

    And Bree... FOR FUCK'S SAKE! Hoiw can you NOT see the bloody irony?

    I'dve been more direct, but I'm afraid of the organization(s) behind it.

    I don't fear them, they couldn't find me on a map if I circled my location!

    Ah, but you see, I have a static IP. If I come up with substantial evidence (that I do not in any way possess) proving that the organization(s) is (are) involved (unlikely), it'd be a very simple matter to find me and destroy my window to the world. Or kill me. Whichever is more cost effective.
    Like how paying out funerary arrangements to the families of those killed in a plane crash is less expensive than paying for rehabilitative servicis to the survivors.

    Are you saying the 9/11 planes were going to crash anyway and the organization(s) decided it was a good idea to crash them into buildings to make sure nobody survived?

    Or are you referring to some other event in the history you Americans apparently (according to at least one member here) don't have?

    There's a popular myth that airline seating is actually designed to kill you in a severe crash because it would be cheaper to bury you than pay for several years of medical attention.

    It's completely bogus of course.

    Actually it's not. Provided everyone on the plane survives an otherwise fatal crash, the airline company has to pay an exponentially larger sum to rehabilitate the passengers and settle any class action lawsuits.

    The people who spread the whole "it's bogus" stuff are the airlines themselves. Like anyone is going to fly on an airline that admits they want their passengers to die in a crash, if/when it would occur.

    Although it's geared more for entertainment than hard factual knowledge, I'm satisfied with the results achieved on Mythbusters.

    Very true, especially that guy who looks like a seal, Jamie Heineman or something isn't it?

    I just wish they'd put some new episodes on here, all I can get are repeats.

    You don't make rules. You obey them or get cock-slapped. Where would you like your mushroom tattoo today?

    If Blinky's the one to do it...for your sake I hope you're right handed. Otherwise you'll have to learn.
