I love conspiracy theories. Personally I believe that there
are many many grains of truth out there. If you sort through grains of sand
on the beach you may eventually find gold, too, but it might take a long time.
My theory is that many originators of conspiracy theories are just bad SF writers
who don't have the discipline to refine their stories and get them published.
Others are just out to get attention or make their mark on the world.
- Jeff Rense is the pickled brain behind
a National Enquirer-style alternative news and opinion site, sort of like
CNN for Crop Circles and everything else wierd. Recently seems to have gotten
into some anti-Semitic stuff but caveat emptor...
- Art Bell is Jeff's main competition.
