a new investigation 7 00:00:26,450 --> 00:00:23,369 of the collapses of the World Trade 8 00:00:28,730 --> 00:00:26,460 Center buildings on 9/11 because they 9 00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:28,740 think that it was from something other 10 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:31,529 than the impacts and the fires they 11 00:00:37,190 --> 00:00:33,450 think it was some kind of controlled 12 00:00:39,530 --> 00:00:37,200 demolition or something else Adam 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:39,540 actually got into 9/11 activism very 14 00:00:44,389 --> 00:00:41,370 young he studied when he was just 16 15 00:00:47,330 -->

00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:53,219 into it until a couple of years ago when 19 00:01:00,080 --> 00:00:56,250 he took a break from the movement on the 20 00:01:03,380 --> 00:01:00,090 advice of a debunker

00:01:21,299 interview a few days ago and I was going 30 00:01:25,550 --> 00:01:24,270 through various posts your name came up 31 00:01:29,210 --> 00:01:25,560 and I thought oh that sounds like a 32 00:01:30,890 --> 00:01:29,220 great guy and so I looked you up on 33 00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:30,900 Facebook and I'll send you a message on 34 00:01:34,429 --> 00:01:32,790 Facebook and I opened up the Facebook 35 00:01:37,310 --> 00:01:34,439 messenger and there was my message to 36 00:01:39,350 --> 00:01:37,320 you from two years ago saying and you 37 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:39,360 saying like you

actually got back together but now here 41 00:01:53,300 --> 00:01:50,070 we are two years later yeah and it was 42 00:01:56,810 --> 00:01:53,310 like two years ago they you wrote your 43 00:01:59,389 --> 00:01:56,820 essay why ten years at least for me is 44 00:02:02,600 --> 00:01:59,399 enough which was you kind of talking 45 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:02,610 about how you were moving away from 9/11 46 00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:07,770 activism canoed okay let's go start at 47 00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:08,840 the beginning 48 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:12,510 9/11 itself what do you what do you 49 00:02:18,540 --> 00:02:13,450 remember of the day 50 00:02:20,790 --> 00:02:18,550 itself well I was 10 when it happened 51 00:02:23,610 --> 00:02:20,800 and I was in school I think like a lot 52 00:02:25,500 --> 00:02:23,620 of you know my kids all across the 53 00:02:26,790 --> 00:02:25,510 country they were just you know going to 54 00:02:30,030 --> 00:02:26,800 school that day thing gonna be a normal 55 00:02:32,460 --> 00:02:30,040 day and I didn't actually see any 56 00:02:35,070 --> 00:02:32,470 footage from that day they didn't have 57 00:02:36,809 --> 00:02:35,080 any TVs in the classroom but you know we 58 00:02:38,460 --> 00:02:36,819 all kept here and like whispers and 59 00:02:41,460 --> 00:02:38,470 rumors about it like eventually it got 60 00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:41,470 to everybody in my class that they said 61 00:02:45,780 --> 00:02:44,080 a plane hit the Twin Towers and in my 62 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:45,790 mind I just thought I think like a lot 63 00:02:49,559 --> 00:02:48,010 of people it was maybe an accident but 64 00:02:52,470 --> 00:02:49,569 somebody had accidentally hit into the 65 00:02:53,850 --> 00:02:52,480 towers but you know throughout the day 66 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:53,860 it was becoming clear that that wasn't 67 00:02:58,559 --> 00:02:56,170 the case and when I got home that day my 68 00:03:00,420 --> 00:02:58,569 dad kind of sat me down and explained to 69 00:03:02,460 --> 00:03:00,430 me what happened that you know this was 70 00:03:04,650 --> 00:03:02,470 a terrorist attack this wasn't an 71 00:03:07,259 --> 00:03:04,660 accident this was intentional and you 72 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:07,269 know to my ten-year-old mind that seemed 73 00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:09,610 like a completely you know it was 74 00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:11,200 totally alien to me the idea that people 75 00:03:14,370 --> 00:03:13,360 could do something like that yeah you 76 00:03:16,979 --> 00:03:14,380 know over the years I've learned to 77 00:03:18,990 --> 00:03:16,989 accept that that was you know something 78 00:03:21,599 --> 00:03:19,000 people were capable doing do you 79 00:03:24,780 --> 00:03:21,609 remember how your dad acted at the time 80 00:03:27,809 --> 00:03:24,790 like did he seem scared or was he trying 81 00:03:30,539 --> 00:03:27,819 to you know protect you from that type 82 00:03:32,610 --> 00:03:30,549 of feeling do you think um I mean 83 00:03:35,940 --> 00:03:32,620 thinking back I think he was certainly 84 00:03:39,780 --> 00:03:35,950 shaken like everybody else but I feel 85 00:03:41,370 --> 00:03:39,790 like he you know tried to talk to me 86 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:41,380 about it in the best way that he could 87 00:03:46,379 --> 00:03:44,650 and try to you know handle it as calmly 88 00:03:50,819 --> 00:03:46,389 and appropriately as he could and I 89 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:50,829 think he did honestly um I I had to kind 90 00:03:55,110 --> 00:03:52,690 of absorb what that day meant over a 91 00:03:56,490 --> 00:03:55,120 gradual amount of time you know I didn't 92 00:03:58,500 --> 00:03:56,500 take it all in at once which I think was 93 00:04:02,370 --> 00:03:58,510 probably good for somebody like me at 94 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:02,380 that time yeah yeah but I first heard 95 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:03,970 about it when I was on my way to work 96 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:07,810 because I'm in California so just I got 97 00:04:12,089 --> 00:04:09,250 up and I was driving to work and I 98 00:04:14,009 --> 00:04:12,099 turned the radio on and I thought I was 99 00:04:16,740 --> 00:04:14,019 listening to some kind of some kind of 100 00:04:18,330 --> 00:04:16,750 play on the radio like a drama because 101 00:04:19,890 --> 00:04:18,340 it just seems so so amazing they were 102 00:04:22,290 --> 00:04:19,900 talking about you know bombing 103 00:04:23,730 --> 00:04:22,300 Washington and things like that and the 104 00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:23,740 guy sounded hysterically guy they were 105 00:04:28,050 --> 00:04:24,880 talking to 106 00:04:29,610 --> 00:04:28,060 and then I carried on I eventually 107 00:04:31,230 --> 00:04:29,620 figured it out I called my wife and I 108 00:04:34,140 --> 00:04:31,240 had to know I went to work and it was a 109 00:04:36,300 --> 00:04:34,150 very very bizarre day day for everybody 110 00:04:37,410 --> 00:04:36,310 but I only imagined being 10 years old 111 00:04:39,170 --> 00:04:37,420 they must be quite different I was about 112 00:04:46,130 --> 00:04:39,180 30-something at the time 113 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:46,140 so you you say you you kind of you heard 114 00:04:51,630 --> 00:04:49,930 talk of conspiracy theories after that 115 00:04:55,470 --> 00:04:51,640 did you give it much thought like 116 00:04:56,940 --> 00:04:55,480 between now and like the when you first 117 00:05:00,330 --> 00:04:56,950 saw this documentary on the History 118 00:05:02,220 --> 00:05:00,340 Channel but before that though did you 119 00:05:05,850 --> 00:05:02,230 were you aware of like the 9/11 120 00:05:08,370 --> 00:05:05,860 conspiracy theories yeah I want to say 121 00:05:12,540 --> 00:05:08,380 the first time I ever heard about it was 122 00:05:14,730 --> 00:05:12,550 when they released the first images of 123 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:14,740 the Pentagon strike I think when that 124 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:16,330 they released those images that was on 125 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:18,490 the news and I think even then there was 126 00:05:22,890 --> 00:05:21,010 already talked about it being a missile 127 00:05:25,770 --> 00:05:22,900 and I think I remember even looking at 128 00:05:28,230 --> 00:05:25,780 it thinking well you know I don't think 129 00:05:29,670 --> 00:05:28,240 it's a missile but I'll just say I 130 00:05:31,710 --> 00:05:29,680 certainly can't see a plane in those 131 00:05:34,890 --> 00:05:31,720 images but I didn't give it much thought 132 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:34,900 and you know you hear just being on the 133 00:05:38,940 --> 00:05:36,570 internet you're inevitably gonna hear 134 00:05:40,620 --> 00:05:38,950 talk about that here and there there was 135 00:05:43,140 --> 00:05:40,630 talk about the towers being demolished 136 00:05:45,030 --> 00:05:43,150 and at the time I was just pretty 137 00:05:47,540 --> 00:05:45,040 incredulous to the whole thing I just 138 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:47,550 didn't give it much leeway I figured 139 00:05:51,750 --> 00:05:49,930 alright maybe the government knows more 140 00:05:54,450 --> 00:05:51,760 about it than they're telling us which I 141 00:05:56,310 --> 00:05:54,460 think is likely one way or the other but 142 00:05:59,640 --> 00:05:56,320 I didn't think there was anything to 143 00:06:03,960 --> 00:05:59,650 these conspiracy theories and then in 144 00:06:06,180 --> 00:06:03,970 late 2007 like you said I saw just 145 00:06:07,230 --> 00:06:06,190 randomly going through TV I saw this 146 00:06:10,130 --> 00:06:07,240 documentary on the History Channel 147 00:06:13,650 --> 00:06:10,140 called 9/11 conspiracies fact or fiction 148 00:06:15,390 --> 00:06:13,660 and I thought I'd give it a watch cuz I 149 00:06:16,590 --> 00:06:15,400 figured well alright I've been hearing 150 00:06:18,450 --> 00:06:16,600 about these theories but I never 151 00:06:20,130 --> 00:06:18,460 actually like looked at them and seen 152 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:20,140 you know really what they're all about 153 00:06:26,460 --> 00:06:23,650 so I'll take a look and I came at this 154 00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:26,470 as a total like outsider I didn't have 155 00:06:31,350 --> 00:06:28,240 any kind of firm belief one way or the 156 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:31,360 other and the thing the documenter 157 00:06:35,820 --> 00:06:32,650 really did is that it really kind of 158 00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:35,830 opened my eyes to first of all the you 159 00:06:38,730 --> 00:06:38,080 know amount of suspicion there was like 160 00:06:40,020 --> 00:06:38,740 just how many 161 00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:40,030 people really believe this because I 162 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:41,620 didn't really know there was like a 163 00:06:47,370 --> 00:06:45,370 whole movement behind this but it also 164 00:06:49,770 --> 00:06:47,380 showed me just like how many weird 165 00:06:51,420 --> 00:06:49,780 anomalies people had found like the 166 00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:51,430 scale of it was something I just didn't 167 00:06:57,230 --> 00:06:54,400 appreciate at the time and after the 168 00:06:59,610 --> 00:06:57,240 documentary was over I kind of thought 169 00:07:01,999 --> 00:06:59,620 this seems more serious than I thought 170 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:02,009 maybe I actually should look into this 171 00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:04,930 so I started looking into it I watch you 172 00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:06,400 know movies like loose change like 173 00:07:12,659 --> 00:07:09,310 people had done and I went to certain 174 00:07:14,159 --> 00:07:12,669 911 sites like Jim Hoffman's 9/11 a 175 00:07:16,770 --> 00:07:14,169 research side was the one the first ones 176 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:16,780 I found and from there I just started 177 00:07:22,170 --> 00:07:19,930 you know researching it and became more 178 00:07:23,430 --> 00:07:22,180 and more convinced more I found would 179 00:07:26,460 --> 00:07:23,440 you say there was like some kind of 180 00:07:27,899 --> 00:07:26,470 tipping point at all I was the you know 181 00:07:29,279 --> 00:07:27,909 one particular piece of evidence that 182 00:07:29,790 --> 00:07:29,289 you're saying really kind of pushed you 183 00:07:32,100 --> 00:07:29,800 over the edge 184 00:07:34,260 --> 00:07:32,110 um I don't know there was any one 185 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:34,270 particular piece of evidence I think a 186 00:07:40,350 --> 00:07:38,530 lot of it is very compelling looking at 187 00:07:44,100 --> 00:07:40,360 it and I know you and I will disagree on 188 00:07:47,450 --> 00:07:44,110 this of course which is fine but you 189 00:07:50,850 --> 00:07:47,460 know it seemed to blee the evidence was 190 00:07:54,149 --> 00:07:50,860 you know pretty overwhelming as far as I 191 00:07:56,990 --> 00:07:54,159 could tell just looking at the way the 192 00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:57,000 towers fell a lot of the evidence for 193 00:08:01,560 --> 00:07:58,810 you know foreknowledge 194 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:01,570 I looked into as well a lot of it just 195 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:05,050 seemed like cumulative ly it doesn't 196 00:08:10,379 --> 00:08:06,610 seem like the official narrative we've 197 00:08:11,879 --> 00:08:10,389 been given can possibly be true and I'll 198 00:08:14,580 --> 00:08:11,889 make it clear that there's a lot of 199 00:08:16,439 --> 00:08:14,590 theories about 9/11 that I don't believe 200 00:08:18,689 --> 00:08:16,449 in and you know we can go into that too 201 00:08:20,189 --> 00:08:18,699 I've had to that's been I've been a big 202 00:08:23,370 --> 00:08:20,199 part of what I've been done doing over 203 00:08:25,170 --> 00:08:23,380 the years is trying to like weed out you 204 00:08:26,610 --> 00:08:25,180 know the good theories from the bad 205 00:08:28,439 --> 00:08:26,620 theories you know because a lot of good 206 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:28,449 ones out there was a lot of really bad 207 00:08:32,969 --> 00:08:30,250 ones out there and you know the problem 208 00:08:34,709 --> 00:08:32,979 I had and partly why I kind of retired 209 00:08:37,290 --> 00:08:34,719 from the truth movement is because it's 210 00:08:38,250 --> 00:08:37,300 all kind of mixed up and nobody seems 211 00:08:40,529 --> 00:08:38,260 like they've really gone to the trouble 212 00:08:42,389 --> 00:08:40,539 of like clearing out all the bad stuff 213 00:08:44,730 --> 00:08:42,399 and just focusing on the good stuff 214 00:08:47,010 --> 00:08:44,740 really even in some of the most 215 00:08:49,230 --> 00:08:47,020 comprehensive investigators in the truth 216 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:49,240 movement I don't know that I've totally 217 00:08:53,699 --> 00:08:51,970 seen that yeah yeah 218 00:08:56,550 --> 00:08:53,709 you know something like I feel like yeah 219 00:08:59,429 --> 00:08:56,560 I have a kind of a deep banker person 220 00:09:01,170 --> 00:08:59,439 and I think that the the official story 221 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:01,180 at least of the collapses of the 222 00:09:06,710 --> 00:09:03,490 buildings and the impacts of the planes 223 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:06,720 and the Pentagon and and the Shanksville 224 00:09:13,499 --> 00:09:10,569 I feel that those are pretty pretty 225 00:09:14,610 --> 00:09:13,509 likely to be what happened and so I can 226 00:09:17,809 --> 00:09:14,620 you're coming at it from very different 227 00:09:19,980 --> 00:09:17,819 position to you but I still think that's 228 00:09:22,379 --> 00:09:19,990 clearing away all these false 229 00:09:23,819 --> 00:09:22,389 conspiracies is you're the ultimate goal 230 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:23,829 essentially like you want to try to 231 00:09:27,569 --> 00:09:25,569 figure out what what is the truth what 232 00:09:30,749 --> 00:09:27,579 did actually happen and if there was 233 00:09:32,670 --> 00:09:30,759 some some bad stuff going down on 9/11 234 00:09:34,470 --> 00:09:32,680 from our own government or if it was 235 00:09:37,170 --> 00:09:34,480 even if it's just at the level of there 236 00:09:39,389 --> 00:09:37,180 was some incompetence or some lapses or 237 00:09:42,540 --> 00:09:39,399 oh you maybe some deliberate acts that 238 00:09:44,100 --> 00:09:42,550 happened around that time like all this 239 00:09:46,199 --> 00:09:44,110 other stuff is kind of a distraction 240 00:09:48,629 --> 00:09:46,209 from it I know you you can feel that 241 00:09:50,249 --> 00:09:48,639 about things like you know cruise 242 00:09:55,290 --> 00:09:50,259 missile hitting the Pentagon do you 243 00:09:57,749 --> 00:09:55,300 think that's a a distraction yeah any 244 00:10:00,990 --> 00:09:57,759 kind of pretty much any kind of no 245 00:10:03,780 --> 00:10:01,000 planar theories that are out there I you 246 00:10:06,119 --> 00:10:03,790 know thinker have no basis to them and 247 00:10:08,970 --> 00:10:06,129 I'm honestly like very sick of them I've 248 00:10:10,319 --> 00:10:08,980 had lots of discussions with you know 249 00:10:14,639 --> 00:10:10,329 World Trade Center know planners 250 00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,649 Pentagon know planners and it's it's 251 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:16,240 really frustrating to somebody like me 252 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:18,250 and was over the years because it makes 253 00:10:23,340 --> 00:10:21,850 my job so much harder because I would 254 00:10:25,139 --> 00:10:23,350 talk to people about what I considered 255 00:10:26,699 --> 00:10:25,149 be good evidence some people would 256 00:10:29,699 --> 00:10:26,709 actually bring up stuff about like you 257 00:10:31,139 --> 00:10:29,709 know the Pentagon or no plane crashing 258 00:10:33,030 --> 00:10:31,149 into the towers or even in Shanksville 259 00:10:34,980 --> 00:10:33,040 and so I'd have to kind of explain to 260 00:10:36,509 --> 00:10:34,990 them no no I don't believe in that 261 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:36,519 here's why you shouldn't either so it's 262 00:10:40,019 --> 00:10:38,410 like I have to do like double the work 263 00:10:41,460 --> 00:10:40,029 pretty much so it makes my job so much 264 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:41,470 harder and that that's the kind of stuff 265 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:44,170 that really bugs me along yeah may be 266 00:10:49,650 --> 00:10:45,970 great if everybody was on the same page 267 00:10:50,850 --> 00:10:49,660 or closer to how you know you're on the 268 00:10:52,379 --> 00:10:50,860 same page which doesn't mean they have 269 00:10:53,970 --> 00:10:52,389 the exact same opinions but thinking 270 00:10:55,499 --> 00:10:53,980 they're talking about the same things if 271 00:10:57,929 --> 00:10:55,509 someone's talking about the planes being 272 00:10:59,850 --> 00:10:57,939 Holograms then they're not really gonna 273 00:11:02,100 --> 00:10:59,860 be like interested in you your your 274 00:11:03,929 --> 00:11:02,110 evidence for I don't know whatever 275 00:11:04,530 --> 00:11:03,939 remote control planes or things like 276 00:11:07,830 --> 00:11:04,540 that 277 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:07,840 yeah yeah so you said you watched loose 278 00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:09,250 change that was another one she watched 279 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:10,510 next 280 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:13,090 it's interesting you said that you you 281 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:14,650 wouldn't recommend the early editions of 282 00:11:19,860 --> 00:11:17,050 loose change this is this quite popular 283 00:11:22,590 --> 00:11:19,870 documentary here back in the mid-2000s 284 00:11:24,030 --> 00:11:22,600 it's had several editions since then in 285 00:11:26,850 --> 00:11:24,040 the first ones were kind of had a whole 286 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:26,860 bunch of of errors but against you know 287 00:11:32,340 --> 00:11:29,530 people still a lot of people mention 288 00:11:35,220 --> 00:11:32,350 loose change was it something that 289 00:11:37,110 --> 00:11:35,230 implements you a lot at the time well 290 00:11:38,850 --> 00:11:37,120 the reason I went to that is because 291 00:11:40,620 --> 00:11:38,860 that was kind of the main film they 292 00:11:42,330 --> 00:11:40,630 focused on in the History Channel 293 00:11:45,780 --> 00:11:42,340 documentary they talked about that one 294 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:45,790 so much and I thought well they talked 295 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:47,410 about this documentary so much I might 296 00:11:51,900 --> 00:11:50,290 as well go and watch it and I don't 297 00:11:53,220 --> 00:11:51,910 think the third edition was out yet I 298 00:11:56,310 --> 00:11:53,230 think when I watched it it was still 299 00:11:57,300 --> 00:11:56,320 just the second edition that was out and 300 00:11:59,310 --> 00:11:57,310 at the time I thought it was very 301 00:12:00,390 --> 00:11:59,320 impressive there was a lot of stuff in 302 00:12:03,030 --> 00:12:00,400 it that wasn't mentioned in the 303 00:12:05,100 --> 00:12:03,040 documentary you know stuff that they you 304 00:12:07,590 --> 00:12:05,110 know could have brought up it's just 305 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:07,600 what I've learned now I wouldn't 306 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:09,130 recommend the second edition because I 307 00:12:14,250 --> 00:12:11,010 just think there's too much in it it's 308 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:14,260 you know it it's been a constant thing 309 00:12:18,570 --> 00:12:16,210 for me I'm I tend to be very picky about 310 00:12:21,150 --> 00:12:18,580 which 9/11 films I recommend to people 311 00:12:23,970 --> 00:12:21,160 like truth movement films cuz sometimes 312 00:12:28,020 --> 00:12:23,980 if there's like stuff in it that's too 313 00:12:30,660 --> 00:12:28,030 much false info I just can't do it you 314 00:12:32,790 --> 00:12:30,670 know it's like I've had my way with the 315 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:32,800 third edition for example third edition 316 00:12:37,680 --> 00:12:35,530 I think is still the best one you know 317 00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:37,690 cuz they don't really go with the idea 318 00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:39,310 of plane didn't hit the Pentagon they 319 00:12:44,190 --> 00:12:41,110 kind of hint at it like if it was up to 320 00:12:45,900 --> 00:12:44,200 me I would just say in the film no plane 321 00:12:47,970 --> 00:12:45,910 most likely did hit and we should just 322 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:47,980 forget about the no client stuff but you 323 00:12:53,130 --> 00:12:50,530 know kind of a Midway to that I guess 324 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:53,140 I'm okay with yeah but yeah loose change 325 00:12:58,650 --> 00:12:54,850 was one of the early films I saw like a 326 00:12:59,910 --> 00:12:58,660 lot of people and I've seen a lot of you 327 00:13:02,610 --> 00:12:59,920 know truth movement films that are 328 00:13:04,050 --> 00:13:02,620 pretty good I think 9/11 press for truth 329 00:13:06,420 --> 00:13:04,060 is really good people should definitely 330 00:13:09,150 --> 00:13:06,430 watch that one a lot of really good ones 331 00:13:10,650 --> 00:13:09,160 out there but loose change at least the 332 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:10,660 first and second edition I think people 333 00:13:15,030 --> 00:13:12,490 can skip I think the third and the the 334 00:13:17,790 --> 00:13:15,040 final coup edition that was put out too 335 00:13:18,980 --> 00:13:17,800 I think or both pretty good and 336 00:13:21,030 --> 00:13:18,990 get people some pretty good information 337 00:13:24,269 --> 00:13:21,040 yeah I should probably watch them I 338 00:13:25,740 --> 00:13:24,279 haven't a sort many many years ago I was 339 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:25,750 probably watching something like the 340 00:13:30,660 --> 00:13:27,490 second or third edition I can't remember 341 00:13:32,430 --> 00:13:30,670 exactly well I should probably watch it 342 00:13:35,670 --> 00:13:32,440 to get up-to-date with what people are 343 00:13:38,220 --> 00:13:35,680 saying so yeah you have to lose change 344 00:13:42,060 --> 00:13:38,230 you say you you can have found several 345 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:42,070 useful 911 websites so you mentioned 346 00:13:49,230 --> 00:13:45,130 three of them 911 research 9/11 truth 347 00:13:52,079 --> 00:13:49,240 and 9/11 blogger what did you get from 348 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:52,089 like all these these these websites it 349 00:13:56,190 --> 00:13:54,250 was good that those were sort of the 350 00:13:58,530 --> 00:13:56,200 early ones I found because just like 351 00:14:02,699 --> 00:13:58,540 with the movies there's a lot of very 352 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:02,709 bad 9/11 truth websites out there too in 353 00:14:07,069 --> 00:14:04,810 particular Jim Hoffman's site the his I 354 00:14:10,380 --> 00:14:07,079 11 research site was the one I kind of 355 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:10,390 found the most useful just because of 356 00:14:15,690 --> 00:14:11,890 the setup of it you know the fact that 357 00:14:18,449 --> 00:14:15,700 every page on that site you know had 358 00:14:20,490 --> 00:14:18,459 like footnoted references so like it had 359 00:14:22,079 --> 00:14:20,500 you know its source what I'm saying so I 360 00:14:23,730 --> 00:14:22,089 can go check it and I liked that I 361 00:14:26,610 --> 00:14:23,740 thought that was really handy and it was 362 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:26,620 set up in this very like encyclopedic 363 00:14:30,269 --> 00:14:29,050 type way so it was easy to navigate you 364 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:30,279 know it's like the presentation was very 365 00:14:33,510 --> 00:14:31,810 professional and that already kind of 366 00:14:36,930 --> 00:14:33,520 told me in this seemed like this was a 367 00:14:39,410 --> 00:14:36,940 good resource to go to and 9/11 truth 368 00:14:43,019 --> 00:14:39,420 and 9/11 bloggers you know kind of more 369 00:14:45,510 --> 00:14:43,029 activists sites but they seem to be you 370 00:14:47,069 --> 00:14:45,520 know pretty responsible to so early on 371 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:47,079 it was just a matter of trying to weed 372 00:14:50,250 --> 00:14:48,490 out what looked like you know the 373 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:50,260 responsible truth sites and the 374 00:14:53,940 --> 00:14:51,970 irresponsible ones and there's a lot of 375 00:14:56,370 --> 00:14:53,950 irresponsible ones out there and those 376 00:14:59,880 --> 00:14:56,380 are ones that I tend to avoid and not 377 00:15:03,319 --> 00:14:59,890 give any credence to yeah yeah the 378 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:03,329 Senate quite a wide variety of websites 379 00:15:09,510 --> 00:15:06,250 and then you kind of got into blogging 380 00:15:12,150 --> 00:15:09,520 yourself at this point with 9/11 381 00:15:14,130 --> 00:15:12,160 debunkers dot blog spot.com and you 382 00:15:16,100 --> 00:15:14,140 couldn't fly started making posts on 383 00:15:20,670 --> 00:15:16,110 that and how did how did that come about 384 00:15:22,319 --> 00:15:20,680 yeah it was actually in 2009 when loose 385 00:15:25,259 --> 00:15:22,329 change final coos come out it actually 386 00:15:26,670 --> 00:15:25,269 comes back to loose change again they 387 00:15:28,470 --> 00:15:26,680 announced that they were releasing this 388 00:15:29,850 --> 00:15:28,480 new edition of loose change 389 00:15:31,980 --> 00:15:29,860 and I was really excited about that 390 00:15:33,870 --> 00:15:31,990 because it looked really professionally 391 00:15:37,470 --> 00:15:33,880 made and I it was gonna be up to date I 392 00:15:39,930 --> 00:15:37,480 thought oh that's great so what I 393 00:15:41,340 --> 00:15:39,940 started doing was going to the loose 394 00:15:43,500 --> 00:15:41,350 change site and going on the loose 395 00:15:45,180 --> 00:15:43,510 change forum from time to time I didn't 396 00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:45,190 ever sign up as a poster but I would 397 00:15:48,300 --> 00:15:47,110 just kind of you know peruse it from 398 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:48,310 time to time to kind of keep up to date 399 00:15:53,790 --> 00:15:51,279 with what was going on and on one thread 400 00:15:56,790 --> 00:15:53,800 that I can't find anymore somebody 401 00:15:59,610 --> 00:15:56,800 posted a link to this website called 911 402 00:16:00,930 --> 00:15:59,620 debunkers blog spot.com which I had 403 00:16:03,150 --> 00:16:00,940 never heard of but they said it was a 404 00:16:05,610 --> 00:16:03,160 site for you know addressing debunkers 405 00:16:08,579 --> 00:16:05,620 which I was interested in so I thought 406 00:16:09,930 --> 00:16:08,589 oh okay let's check that out and I was 407 00:16:11,460 --> 00:16:09,940 really impressed with it when I was 408 00:16:14,970 --> 00:16:11,470 looking through it because the people 409 00:16:17,730 --> 00:16:14,980 they're posting were really taking on 410 00:16:19,050 --> 00:16:17,740 what debunkers were saying in a pretty 411 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:19,060 comprehensive way and it really 412 00:16:25,710 --> 00:16:22,810 impressed me and eventually I got a hold 413 00:16:28,620 --> 00:16:25,720 of the main guy who ran it my friend now 414 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:28,630 john-michael Tambo and I've been making 415 00:16:33,750 --> 00:16:30,730 like just little videos for YouTube 416 00:16:35,910 --> 00:16:33,760 about 9/11 and I contacted and basically 417 00:16:37,980 --> 00:16:35,920 just said hey I like what you're doing 418 00:16:40,889 --> 00:16:37,990 the site looks great I'm making videos 419 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:40,899 kind of addressing - bunkers - you know 420 00:16:44,699 --> 00:16:42,970 if you want to take a look at him and he 421 00:16:46,199 --> 00:16:44,709 got back to me and looked at it and he 422 00:16:48,780 --> 00:16:46,209 liked what I was doing - and said yeah 423 00:16:51,810 --> 00:16:48,790 I'll post him at the site if that's ok I 424 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:51,820 said sure and eventually he asked me you 425 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:53,170 know do you want to write for the site I 426 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:55,570 thought yeah I could do that I've never 427 00:17:00,660 --> 00:16:57,370 written for a website or a blog before 428 00:17:03,500 --> 00:17:00,670 but I can give that a shot and that was 429 00:17:07,140 --> 00:17:03,510 really kind of a big turning point in my 430 00:17:10,020 --> 00:17:07,150 you know research in 9/11 and what I was 431 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:10,030 doing as an activist because I was 432 00:17:13,890 --> 00:17:11,890 basically I think at that point trying 433 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:13,900 to find kind of my niche in the truth 434 00:17:19,020 --> 00:17:15,730 movement and I think the debunkers blog 435 00:17:20,340 --> 00:17:19,030 was absolutely my niche that I really 436 00:17:22,350 --> 00:17:20,350 feel like that's where I was supposed to 437 00:17:26,189 --> 00:17:22,360 be because I I think I wrote some of my 438 00:17:27,539 --> 00:17:26,199 best stuff about that at that site so I 439 00:17:29,250 --> 00:17:27,549 was really happy to find that and 440 00:17:31,890 --> 00:17:29,260 meeting John Michael I got to be 441 00:17:34,380 --> 00:17:31,900 involved in 9/11 activism far more than 442 00:17:36,299 --> 00:17:34,390 I could have been otherwise so yeah it 443 00:17:38,610 --> 00:17:36,309 was it was great finding that site in 444 00:17:40,950 --> 00:17:38,620 writing for there for so many years so 445 00:17:42,900 --> 00:17:40,960 did you that you're writing for a blog 446 00:17:46,590 --> 00:17:42,910 that's addressing debunk 447 00:17:48,810 --> 00:17:46,600 so do you think you prefer kind of doing 448 00:17:50,250 --> 00:17:48,820 that addressing debunking rather than 449 00:17:52,620 --> 00:17:50,260 trying to persuade people by just 450 00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:52,630 presenting the evidence you see that as 451 00:17:56,220 --> 00:17:54,550 a was it more fun or do you think it was 452 00:17:58,950 --> 00:17:56,230 more effective to do things like that 453 00:18:01,920 --> 00:17:58,960 why do you think you preferred that well 454 00:18:04,170 --> 00:18:01,930 I think actually doing that was a good 455 00:18:06,390 --> 00:18:04,180 way to present evidence I think that I 456 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:06,400 think that I did do that a lot in the 457 00:18:10,590 --> 00:18:08,050 post Center Road I think it accomplished 458 00:18:13,410 --> 00:18:10,600 two goals actually I think on the one 459 00:18:15,150 --> 00:18:13,420 hand we could address the claims 460 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:15,160 debunkers were making and at the same 461 00:18:20,310 --> 00:18:17,170 time present the evidence that we felt 462 00:18:22,470 --> 00:18:20,320 was compelling and a lot of good came 463 00:18:24,270 --> 00:18:22,480 out of that I think and just to be clear 464 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:24,280 it wasn't just debunkers that we were 465 00:18:29,340 --> 00:18:27,010 addressing on that blog if you go on 466 00:18:31,770 --> 00:18:29,350 there we've got you know tons of posts 467 00:18:33,750 --> 00:18:31,780 addressing truthers - and claims that 468 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:33,760 they've made that we felt weren't very 469 00:18:38,340 --> 00:18:36,010 good so that's not our thing about it 470 00:18:40,620 --> 00:18:38,350 was that was a really good way - like I 471 00:18:44,610 --> 00:18:40,630 was saying before weed out sort of the 472 00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:44,620 good evidence from bad so yeah I mean we 473 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:47,440 took to task truthers I'd say just as 474 00:18:51,750 --> 00:18:50,410 much as debunkers that's really what the 475 00:18:54,930 --> 00:18:51,760 point of the blog was it was really 476 00:18:56,340 --> 00:18:54,940 about weeding out the bad evidence and 477 00:18:58,350 --> 00:18:56,350 the good evidence the good arguments the 478 00:18:59,910 --> 00:18:58,360 battle recommence and I think doing it 479 00:19:01,530 --> 00:18:59,920 that way allowed us to do that pretty 480 00:19:03,690 --> 00:19:01,540 effectively yeah it's interesting you 481 00:19:05,790 --> 00:19:03,700 know the sites called 9/11 debunkers and 482 00:19:09,420 --> 00:19:05,800 it's kind of not clear from the title 483 00:19:11,910 --> 00:19:09,430 whether you it's about 9/11 debunkers or 484 00:19:14,370 --> 00:19:11,920 you are debunkers who talk about 9/11 485 00:19:16,530 --> 00:19:14,380 because a lot of what you do essentially 486 00:19:18,420 --> 00:19:16,540 would be debunking you'll be debunking 487 00:19:20,910 --> 00:19:18,430 the no plain things should be debunking 488 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:20,920 the Judy woods stuff and you know the 489 00:19:24,990 --> 00:19:23,170 other theories like that so you are 490 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:25,000 Addie bunker in a way but just with a 491 00:19:32,100 --> 00:19:29,050 different perspective yeah and that's 492 00:19:33,270 --> 00:19:32,110 kind of related to a lot of people in 493 00:19:37,020 --> 00:19:33,280 the movement would say that the 494 00:19:38,370 --> 00:19:37,030 debunkers themselves are the conspiracy 495 00:19:40,860 --> 00:19:38,380 theorists because they believe the 496 00:19:42,540 --> 00:19:40,870 government's conspiracy yeah I don't 497 00:19:44,220 --> 00:19:42,550 necessarily like to get into the 498 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:44,230 back-and-forth about who's the debunker 499 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:47,530 who's the conspiracy theorist I like to 500 00:19:51,660 --> 00:19:50,170 just say we're all researchers looking 501 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:51,670 into 9/11 and we just kind of different 502 00:19:55,770 --> 00:19:53,410 conclusions that's how I prefer to look 503 00:19:57,810 --> 00:19:55,780 at it so what do you think of 504 00:19:59,730 --> 00:19:57,820 what back then what did you think of the 505 00:20:03,990 --> 00:19:59,740 debunkers like the people who were 506 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:04,000 writing posts like trying to debunk 9/11 507 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:08,290 truth flames well I thought in some 508 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:11,410 cases a lot of they said was right like 509 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:13,690 I don't think everything every debunker 510 00:20:18,690 --> 00:20:16,210 said about 9/11 has been wrong you know 511 00:20:23,340 --> 00:20:18,700 I've had my mind changed plenty of times 512 00:20:25,050 --> 00:20:23,350 by arguments they presented I think that 513 00:20:27,030 --> 00:20:25,060 you know I'm a genuinely disagree with 514 00:20:28,890 --> 00:20:27,040 them about the conclusion but you know 515 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:28,900 I've learned from them and I hope that 516 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:30,850 some degree they've learned from me too 517 00:20:36,390 --> 00:20:33,730 I've actually seen debunkers say they 518 00:20:41,670 --> 00:20:36,400 think that I got some stuff right that I 519 00:20:43,140 --> 00:20:41,680 talked about so yeah I I don't have any 520 00:20:45,660 --> 00:20:43,150 ill will against I need to bunker like 521 00:20:49,050 --> 00:20:45,670 one of the things I've made clear is 522 00:20:51,690 --> 00:20:49,060 I've never seen the debunkers as the 523 00:20:53,250 --> 00:20:51,700 enemies of the truth movement the only 524 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:53,260 people that I consider to be the enemies 525 00:20:56,910 --> 00:20:55,330 or the bad guys in this whole situation 526 00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:56,920 are the people that actually care about 527 00:21:01,500 --> 00:20:58,810 the attacks whoever they are they're 528 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:01,510 indisputably the bad guys the people 529 00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:03,490 that are the enemies here but the 530 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:06,130 debunkers I really have just try to look 531 00:21:09,900 --> 00:21:08,050 at them as other researchers to just 532 00:21:12,210 --> 00:21:09,910 came to a different conclusion about not 533 00:21:15,330 --> 00:21:12,220 love than I have that's pretty much it 534 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:15,340 yeah what about the people who make 535 00:21:19,620 --> 00:21:17,050 claims that can have everybody you know 536 00:21:22,170 --> 00:21:19,630 the debunkers and and you agree are 537 00:21:25,650 --> 00:21:22,180 wrong like the you know more extreme the 538 00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:25,660 no plain people do you think of them as 539 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:27,280 being the bad guys I mean they're 540 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:28,810 obviously not the bad guys because they 541 00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:30,730 didn't do anything but they're not 542 00:21:38,910 --> 00:21:35,910 helping well I I think they are just 543 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:38,920 very very bad very irresponsible 544 00:21:43,260 --> 00:21:41,290 researchers that's kind of how I would 545 00:21:44,580 --> 00:21:43,270 phrase it I do think that they did a lot 546 00:21:46,380 --> 00:21:44,590 of harm to the truth movement to 547 00:21:48,900 --> 00:21:46,390 potentially more harm that even the 548 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:48,910 bunkers have just because a lot of these 549 00:21:53,430 --> 00:21:52,090 wacky theories that are out there it's 550 00:21:55,410 --> 00:21:53,440 the kind of thing that the one thing the 551 00:21:56,970 --> 00:21:55,420 media preys upon when they want to try 552 00:22:01,140 --> 00:21:56,980 to discredit us you know they would 553 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:01,150 point out like for example there was I 554 00:22:08,410 --> 00:22:03,970 think a couple of I think it was a BBC 555 00:22:10,150 --> 00:22:08,420 documentary the the conspiracy files the 556 00:22:12,220 --> 00:22:10,160 they had like a big closeup of a guy at 557 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:12,230 Ground Zero with like an O planar shirt 558 00:22:16,390 --> 00:22:14,570 on or in a National Geographic 559 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:16,400 documentary they had a close-up of 560 00:22:20,380 --> 00:22:18,050 people holding up this big sign saying 561 00:22:21,940 --> 00:22:20,390 no planes at the towers so I know that 562 00:22:25,030 --> 00:22:21,950 when these theories get brought up the 563 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:25,040 media often times takes those and tries 564 00:22:28,660 --> 00:22:27,290 to like make it look like you know we're 565 00:22:31,180 --> 00:22:28,670 crazy like they don't differentiate 566 00:22:33,010 --> 00:22:31,190 between the people who are promoting 567 00:22:34,810 --> 00:22:33,020 those theories but any other theories 568 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:34,820 and that that bothers me that frustrates 569 00:22:38,710 --> 00:22:36,890 me a lot I wouldn't call them enemies I 570 00:22:41,290 --> 00:22:38,720 would just call them very irresponsible 571 00:22:43,270 --> 00:22:41,300 I call them irresponsible conspiracy 572 00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:43,280 theorists I think there's a responsible 573 00:22:46,870 --> 00:22:44,840 way to be a conspiracy theorist and 574 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:46,880 irresponsible ways to be conspiracy 575 00:22:50,910 --> 00:22:48,410 theorists and it's just trying to figure 576 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:50,920 out you know who's who in that sense 577 00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:52,850 yeah that's interesting what you say 578 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:54,110 about the media cuz it kind of bothers 579 00:22:57,940 --> 00:22:55,730 me as well like I write about the 580 00:23:00,430 --> 00:22:57,950 chemtrail conspiracy theorist and like 581 00:23:04,030 --> 00:23:00,440 everybody every time it comes up in the 582 00:23:05,830 --> 00:23:04,040 media people will say oh these people 583 00:23:08,430 --> 00:23:05,840 believe that we're being sprayed with 584 00:23:10,900 --> 00:23:08,440 mind-altering chemicals from the sky 585 00:23:12,190 --> 00:23:10,910 when hardly any of the chemtrail people 586 00:23:14,110 --> 00:23:12,200 actually believe that that's kind of 587 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:14,120 like the no plain version of the 588 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:16,610 chemtrails theory the most common thing 589 00:23:21,250 --> 00:23:18,410 of the chemtrail theory is that they 590 00:23:24,610 --> 00:23:21,260 think it's secret secretly trying to 591 00:23:27,790 --> 00:23:24,620 modify the climate and so that when the 592 00:23:29,890 --> 00:23:27,800 media or other debunkers or the skeptics 593 00:23:32,290 --> 00:23:29,900 I stopped putting out these extreme 594 00:23:35,860 --> 00:23:32,300 versions as being the straw man to 595 00:23:37,660 --> 00:23:35,870 attack then it really yeah it hinders 596 00:23:40,810 --> 00:23:37,670 communication it makes it hard for me to 597 00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:40,820 actually talk to people you've really 598 00:23:44,500 --> 00:23:42,110 got to figure out what the person you're 599 00:23:46,630 --> 00:23:44,510 talking to actually believes in rather 600 00:23:48,820 --> 00:23:46,640 than addressing some kind of caricature 601 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:48,830 that they that you imagine they but they 602 00:23:51,820 --> 00:23:49,930 all believe in it 603 00:23:55,510 --> 00:23:51,830 another thing I found really interesting 604 00:23:57,630 --> 00:23:55,520 about your your let your essay was your 605 00:24:01,480 --> 00:23:57,640 accountant your going to New York in 606 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:01,490 2011 and for you it was like a very kind 607 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:03,890 of almost like a powerful experience 608 00:24:08,620 --> 00:24:06,530 going to go there and meet fellow 609 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:08,630 activists for the first time can you can 610 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:10,610 tell us about and what happened there 611 00:24:17,950 --> 00:24:14,450 yeah there was a big deal because you 612 00:24:20,110 --> 00:24:17,960 know for the vast majority of my work in 613 00:24:21,700 --> 00:24:20,120 the truth movement I wasn't one of those 614 00:24:22,540 --> 00:24:21,710 people going out with like groups of 615 00:24:23,830 --> 00:24:22,550 people and the 616 00:24:26,130 --> 00:24:23,840 the Blackshirts like you know 617 00:24:28,450 --> 00:24:26,140 demonstrating out on the street like 618 00:24:30,550 --> 00:24:28,460 pretty much I was doing this all on my 619 00:24:32,350 --> 00:24:30,560 own for the most part like yes working 620 00:24:33,940 --> 00:24:32,360 with people on the blog and writing 621 00:24:35,620 --> 00:24:33,950 posts but as far as like going out and 622 00:24:37,180 --> 00:24:35,630 actually doing any kind of activist 623 00:24:39,730 --> 00:24:37,190 stuff I was pretty much doing it all on 624 00:24:42,220 --> 00:24:39,740 my own like I would you know go to the 625 00:24:44,170 --> 00:24:42,230 store and buy you know reams of paper 626 00:24:45,790 --> 00:24:44,180 and ink from my printer to like make my 627 00:24:49,770 --> 00:24:45,800 own homemade pamphlets to try to hand 628 00:24:53,890 --> 00:24:49,780 out like that's pretty much it and then 629 00:24:56,350 --> 00:24:53,900 me John Michael and his wife we went to 630 00:24:58,330 --> 00:24:56,360 New York in 2011 for the 10 year 631 00:25:00,250 --> 00:24:58,340 anniversary and that was the first time 632 00:25:01,690 --> 00:25:00,260 I'd ever been to New York for one thing 633 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:01,700 and the first time I've been to Ground 634 00:25:07,750 --> 00:25:06,050 Zero for 9/11 and it was yeah part of it 635 00:25:09,190 --> 00:25:07,760 was a really powerful experience to be 636 00:25:11,530 --> 00:25:09,200 there like with everybody you know 637 00:25:14,770 --> 00:25:11,540 demonstrating calling for a new 638 00:25:18,940 --> 00:25:14,780 investigation but the other aspect to it 639 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:18,950 was there was a little sense of like it 640 00:25:22,090 --> 00:25:20,330 didn't seem like the movement was going 641 00:25:24,940 --> 00:25:22,100 anywhere because from one thing the 642 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:24,950 turnout was a lot smaller than I had 643 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:29,210 seen in you know that seemed videos like 644 00:25:33,310 --> 00:25:31,850 the one but once from 2006 to 2007 there 645 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:33,320 was like hundreds if not thousands of 646 00:25:38,470 --> 00:25:35,450 people with those and this one there was 647 00:25:40,030 --> 00:25:38,480 like maybe a hundred two hundred and 648 00:25:41,650 --> 00:25:40,040 something like that it was a decent 649 00:25:43,660 --> 00:25:41,660 amount of people but it wasn't anywhere 650 00:25:47,350 --> 00:25:43,670 near what they had in previous years and 651 00:25:49,210 --> 00:25:47,360 for me that was kind of a you know the 652 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:49,220 first visual sign I'd seen that like the 653 00:25:56,950 --> 00:25:51,650 movement was really stagnating like it 654 00:25:58,150 --> 00:25:56,960 was losing real momentum and and I was 655 00:25:59,890 --> 00:25:58,160 even talking to people there who were 656 00:26:02,770 --> 00:25:59,900 still talking about really bad evidence 657 00:26:04,030 --> 00:26:02,780 and that kind of filled me with more 658 00:26:07,630 --> 00:26:04,040 dread where it felt like we weren't 659 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:07,640 getting anywhere so for me like in my 660 00:26:11,590 --> 00:26:10,250 post I talked about how you know people 661 00:26:14,110 --> 00:26:11,600 have said the movement kind of peaked in 662 00:26:15,490 --> 00:26:14,120 2006 and that might be the case you know 663 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:15,500 because that was technically the biggest 664 00:26:21,850 --> 00:26:18,890 turnout in 2006 for the the five-year 665 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:21,860 anniversary but for me I would say that 666 00:26:26,470 --> 00:26:23,330 was probably when it peaked because that 667 00:26:27,970 --> 00:26:26,480 was sort of the the height of my truth 668 00:26:28,740 --> 00:26:27,980 or activism and how much I've gotten 669 00:26:31,750 --> 00:26:28,750 involved 670 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:31,760 and after that I just feel like the 671 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:33,530 momentum was steadily declining more and 672 00:26:38,239 --> 00:26:36,330 more so it was unfortunate but 673 00:26:40,999 --> 00:26:38,249 I couldn't ignore the warning signs when 674 00:26:43,009 --> 00:26:41,009 they were there pretty much so did 675 00:26:44,989 --> 00:26:43,019 things change for you after that because 676 00:26:47,089 --> 00:26:44,999 of that when you saw that did you 677 00:26:48,649 --> 00:26:47,099 or was that just kind of something you 678 00:26:53,329 --> 00:26:48,659 identify in the past as being a point 679 00:26:56,479 --> 00:26:53,339 when things changed um I mean it changed 680 00:26:59,149 --> 00:26:56,489 in the sense that like like I myself 681 00:27:02,119 --> 00:26:59,159 personally had momentum up to that point 682 00:27:03,739 --> 00:27:02,129 like I had still a passion to do it and 683 00:27:06,019 --> 00:27:03,749 I think after that is just when that 684 00:27:08,449 --> 00:27:06,029 passion started to steadily decline like 685 00:27:10,639 --> 00:27:08,459 that was the point where my momentum 686 00:27:13,549 --> 00:27:10,649 certainly was going down just because I 687 00:27:16,940 --> 00:27:13,559 could see the momentum of the movement 688 00:27:19,549 --> 00:27:16,950 and total was going down um like where I 689 00:27:22,060 --> 00:27:19,559 was kind of at at that point was I sort 690 00:27:24,709 --> 00:27:22,070 of knew that maybe like the activism 691 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:24,719 aspect of the movement had kind of been 692 00:27:29,899 --> 00:27:27,570 going down since 2006 where I kind of 693 00:27:32,869 --> 00:27:29,909 had my hope set was in more of the 694 00:27:34,099 --> 00:27:32,879 academic aspect to it because you know 695 00:27:35,779 --> 00:27:34,109 the scientists in the movement have been 696 00:27:37,459 --> 00:27:35,789 getting papers actually published in 697 00:27:39,709 --> 00:27:37,469 peer-reviewed journals at that point and 698 00:27:41,719 --> 00:27:39,719 I was starting to think that okay maybe 699 00:27:45,109 --> 00:27:41,729 the activists you know sign up it's not 700 00:27:46,899 --> 00:27:45,119 going to be the driving force but it 701 00:27:49,039 --> 00:27:46,909 seems like in the academic community 702 00:27:50,779 --> 00:27:49,049 we're making more progress and maybe 703 00:27:53,389 --> 00:27:50,789 that's where we'll you know have our 704 00:27:55,159 --> 00:27:53,399 next wave momentum I feel like the 705 00:27:57,199 --> 00:27:55,169 academic aspect of it was sort of the 706 00:27:58,759 --> 00:27:57,209 second wave of the truth movement in a 707 00:28:02,419 --> 00:27:58,769 sense and that's sort of where I had my 708 00:28:04,879 --> 00:28:02,429 hopes set but even that didn't seem like 709 00:28:07,190 --> 00:28:04,889 it was going anywhere because you know 710 00:28:09,979 --> 00:28:07,200 the active thematic material paper and 711 00:28:12,769 --> 00:28:09,989 everybody I assumed knows about that was 712 00:28:15,109 --> 00:28:12,779 put out in 2009 that's like the closest 713 00:28:17,209 --> 00:28:15,119 that you know anyone never gotten to 714 00:28:19,759 --> 00:28:17,219 showing that there was actual explosives 715 00:28:20,839 --> 00:28:19,769 in the debris from Ground Zero and then 716 00:28:24,709 --> 00:28:20,849 that didn't see the beginning of 717 00:28:27,349 --> 00:28:24,719 anywhere to a new investigation so you 718 00:28:30,739 --> 00:28:27,359 know seeing that even that even like the 719 00:28:33,619 --> 00:28:30,749 academic aspect of it wasn't getting us 720 00:28:36,379 --> 00:28:33,629 any closer to a new investigation that 721 00:28:39,109 --> 00:28:36,389 was also a point where it felt like you 722 00:28:40,069 --> 00:28:39,119 know we weren't getting anywhere with it 723 00:28:42,409 --> 00:28:40,079 that we weren't going to get into 724 00:28:44,359 --> 00:28:42,419 investigation you know where I had my 725 00:28:46,020 --> 00:28:44,369 hopes set even that wasn't working out 726 00:28:48,290 --> 00:28:46,030 and so that was 727 00:28:51,690 --> 00:28:48,300 kind of a main turning point for me too 728 00:28:53,100 --> 00:28:51,700 why do you think that that the dust that 729 00:28:55,650 --> 00:28:53,110 is this these things where they found 730 00:28:58,070 --> 00:28:55,660 this supposedly active emitting material 731 00:29:02,250 --> 00:28:58,080 in the dust why do you think that didn't 732 00:29:03,540 --> 00:29:02,260 get more play in in academia with people 733 00:29:06,780 --> 00:29:03,550 who are interested in this type of thing 734 00:29:09,660 --> 00:29:06,790 we had this this was a couple of studies 735 00:29:12,330 --> 00:29:09,670 I can't remember exactly how many but it 736 00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:12,340 was it dr. Jones did this one Steven 737 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:15,430 Jones and he did some tests and you 738 00:29:21,150 --> 00:29:18,330 found some material which he thought was 739 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:21,160 not thermite exactly but active emitting 740 00:29:24,570 --> 00:29:23,170 material he was a bit strange about what 741 00:29:29,310 --> 00:29:24,580 it was exactly then there was a kind of 742 00:29:31,590 --> 00:29:29,320 a counter study by resound Miller James 743 00:29:33,180 --> 00:29:31,600 yeah she lit James the light yeah and 744 00:29:34,770 --> 00:29:33,190 then there was supposed to be another 745 00:29:36,930 --> 00:29:34,780 study after that but it can never 746 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:36,940 happened and it just kind of petered out 747 00:29:41,340 --> 00:29:39,490 like nothing has really been done by it 748 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:41,350 but we still they still have this one or 749 00:29:47,070 --> 00:29:45,010 a couple of studies from back then why 750 00:29:48,870 --> 00:29:47,080 why do you think nobody in the entire 751 00:29:54,030 --> 00:29:48,880 world that's really been interested in 752 00:29:57,030 --> 00:29:54,040 in furthering this study well I'm not 753 00:29:59,640 --> 00:29:57,040 exactly sure about that it's maybe more 754 00:30:01,650 --> 00:29:59,650 than I can say I will say it's not that 755 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:01,660 nobody's taking interest in it I know 756 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:03,970 that you know some scientists have 757 00:30:08,390 --> 00:30:07,210 commented on it as far as I know James 758 00:30:12,630 --> 00:30:08,400 maletas the only one that actually 759 00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:12,640 published a counter study and his study 760 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:14,830 as far as I know it's still online and 761 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:16,210 freely available it wasn't ever 762 00:30:20,940 --> 00:30:18,010 submitted for peer review it was 763 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:20,950 supposed to be and just it never was I 764 00:30:25,860 --> 00:30:23,050 don't know if that had anything to do 765 00:30:27,660 --> 00:30:25,870 with kind of stagnating the interest in 766 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:27,670 the paper if people just heard there was 767 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:30,090 a counter study that showed it was wrong 768 00:30:35,250 --> 00:30:33,250 maybe that had something to do with it 769 00:30:37,020 --> 00:30:35,260 I don't know I don't know why the 770 00:30:41,310 --> 00:30:37,030 academic community didn't take more 771 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:41,320 notice of it I wish they had you know 772 00:30:45,770 --> 00:30:42,850 maybe they did and just weren't 773 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:45,780 convinced by it but you know the fact is 774 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:48,010 there's the fact that there is currently 775 00:30:52,350 --> 00:30:50,170 no you know peer review refutation of 776 00:30:53,850 --> 00:30:52,360 that paper I mean that it was something 777 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:53,860 that we can say there was never any kind 778 00:30:58,410 --> 00:30:56,890 of discussion submitted of it like I 779 00:30:59,130 --> 00:30:58,420 said the milette paper wasn't ever peer 780 00:31:03,270 --> 00:30:59,140 reviewed 781 00:31:05,610 --> 00:31:03,280 um so in that sense the peer review of 782 00:31:07,530 --> 00:31:05,620 that paper I think does stand that does 783 00:31:09,090 --> 00:31:07,540 I mean it's right I know care of you 784 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:09,100 doesn't mean that it absolutely is right 785 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:11,890 it's just that as far as I can tell it's 786 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:14,410 gone unchallenged as far as you know the 787 00:31:21,630 --> 00:31:18,010 peer-reviewed standards go but but I 788 00:31:23,430 --> 00:31:21,640 don't know I wish the academic community 789 00:31:26,550 --> 00:31:23,440 and granted we needed more than just 790 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:26,560 that we needed you know support of 791 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:27,730 people with subpoena power to take 792 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:29,410 notice of that too and use that to try 793 00:31:34,140 --> 00:31:31,450 to you know get us a new investigation 794 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:34,150 yeah I think like perhaps more more 795 00:31:38,750 --> 00:31:37,810 studies from neutral parties might be a 796 00:31:40,650 --> 00:31:38,760 good start 797 00:31:42,870 --> 00:31:40,660 essentially mentioned like in a peer 798 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:42,880 review studies don't necessarily mean 799 00:31:46,140 --> 00:31:44,770 something is true and this is this is 800 00:31:47,790 --> 00:31:46,150 true I think this is a mistake a lot of 801 00:31:49,230 --> 00:31:47,800 even like you know people who are 802 00:31:50,940 --> 00:31:49,240 scientific skeptics who pride themselves 803 00:31:52,020 --> 00:31:50,950 on being scientific they're always 804 00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:52,030 saying like you know show me the 805 00:31:57,450 --> 00:31:54,910 peer-reviewed studies but those 806 00:31:59,130 --> 00:31:57,460 peer-reviewed studies that prove 807 00:32:01,310 --> 00:31:59,140 chemtrails exist there's actually quite 808 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:01,320 a few that's about ten different papers 809 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:04,930 published by this one guy who somehow 810 00:32:10,590 --> 00:32:06,850 managed to publish all these papers on 811 00:32:12,930 --> 00:32:10,600 chemtrails and they are peer reviewed in 812 00:32:14,460 --> 00:32:12,940 in journals and you know it's it doesn't 813 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:14,470 necessarily mean something you need 814 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:16,570 multiple independent verifications of 815 00:32:20,610 --> 00:32:19,330 something rather than simple peer review 816 00:32:22,710 --> 00:32:20,620 peer reviewer in a lot of cases just 817 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:22,720 means people read the paper and see if 818 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:25,570 there's any obvious mistakes that they 819 00:32:32,070 --> 00:32:30,610 can see personally and there's I think 820 00:32:34,170 --> 00:32:32,080 the quality of peer review probably 821 00:32:36,030 --> 00:32:34,180 varies a lot I'm not saying anything 822 00:32:38,100 --> 00:32:36,040 about Stephen Jones paper specifically 823 00:32:40,500 --> 00:32:38,110 but certainly for this chemtrail paper 824 00:32:44,580 --> 00:32:40,510 the peer review was not very good at all 825 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:44,590 one so you mentioned architects and 826 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:46,690 engineers for 9/11 truth and that you 827 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:49,810 are kind of disappointed by what they 828 00:32:55,350 --> 00:32:51,610 did and this this architects and 829 00:32:58,770 --> 00:32:55,360 engineers for 9/11 truth is is headed by 830 00:33:00,210 --> 00:32:58,780 Richard gage and architects and he's 831 00:33:02,070 --> 00:33:00,220 collected a whole bunch of people who 832 00:33:04,890 --> 00:33:02,080 were either architects or engineers or 833 00:33:07,380 --> 00:33:04,900 various other people and these are 834 00:33:09,270 --> 00:33:07,390 people who think that 9/11 was 835 00:33:12,659 --> 00:33:09,280 controlled demolition essentially and 836 00:33:14,399 --> 00:33:12,669 they've got this kind of authority 837 00:33:16,950 --> 00:33:14,409 guess that they're all architects and 838 00:33:19,409 --> 00:33:16,960 engineers and as they've got 3,000 839 00:33:21,509 --> 00:33:19,419 people to sign a petition but you say 840 00:33:22,799 --> 00:33:21,519 you were kind of dismayed by the 841 00:33:25,710 --> 00:33:22,809 activities of architects and engineers 842 00:33:28,769 --> 00:33:25,720 by 9/11 truth I mean obviously you share 843 00:33:33,239 --> 00:33:28,779 goals what was it what they did that 844 00:33:35,549 --> 00:33:33,249 dismayed you um it kind of goes back to 845 00:33:39,599 --> 00:33:35,559 my thing about my hope was in sort of 846 00:33:42,210 --> 00:33:39,609 the academic aspect of 9/11 that I was 847 00:33:44,220 --> 00:33:42,220 really hoping because we had so many 848 00:33:48,269 --> 00:33:44,230 experts that agreed with us we've been 849 00:33:50,430 --> 00:33:48,279 getting more detailed studies you know 850 00:33:52,830 --> 00:33:50,440 published in you know respectable 851 00:33:55,139 --> 00:33:52,840 scientific venues now granted a lot of 852 00:33:57,060 --> 00:33:55,149 that's been done we actually have a lot 853 00:33:59,519 --> 00:33:57,070 of papers at this point published in 854 00:34:01,349 --> 00:33:59,529 peer-reviewed journals that either 855 00:34:04,409 --> 00:34:01,359 directly or indirectly support 856 00:34:06,389 --> 00:34:04,419 controlled demolition for example but I 857 00:34:08,970 --> 00:34:06,399 would just like to seen a lot more of 858 00:34:11,970 --> 00:34:08,980 that like one of things I say in my post 859 00:34:15,359 --> 00:34:11,980 is like of like the you know 3,000 860 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:15,369 members they have if just say a hundred 861 00:34:19,319 --> 00:34:17,770 of them each published a paper in a 862 00:34:21,839 --> 00:34:19,329 peer-reviewed journal or submitted it to 863 00:34:25,230 --> 00:34:21,849 a peer-reviewed journal I know that 864 00:34:27,419 --> 00:34:25,240 because of the taboo nature of 9/11 and 865 00:34:28,829 --> 00:34:27,429 especially with the towers I can see why 866 00:34:33,629 --> 00:34:28,839 it'd be really hard to get those kind of 867 00:34:35,190 --> 00:34:33,639 papers published and accepted but if if 868 00:34:36,930 --> 00:34:35,200 just a hundred did if there was a 869 00:34:39,450 --> 00:34:36,940 hundred papers published in like a 870 00:34:41,099 --> 00:34:39,460 different journal by these people odds 871 00:34:42,539 --> 00:34:41,109 are at least a few of them would get 872 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:42,549 accepted and would get you know 873 00:34:46,319 --> 00:34:44,530 published and that would get the 874 00:34:48,809 --> 00:34:46,329 attention of you know more people more 875 00:34:51,149 --> 00:34:48,819 people in the academic community in the 876 00:34:53,549 --> 00:34:51,159 engineering community and some of that's 877 00:34:56,190 --> 00:34:53,559 been done and there have been cases 878 00:34:58,589 --> 00:34:56,200 where people in the movement have tried 879 00:34:59,940 --> 00:34:58,599 to submit papers to science journals and 880 00:35:02,069 --> 00:34:59,950 they have been rejected for kind of 881 00:35:03,990 --> 00:35:02,079 these weird reasons like the journals 882 00:35:06,569 --> 00:35:04,000 gave on these very odd excuses like why 883 00:35:07,950 --> 00:35:06,579 they weren't gonna publish them and why 884 00:35:09,270 --> 00:35:07,960 they weren't even gonna review them like 885 00:35:10,829 --> 00:35:09,280 it's not even that they reviewed them 886 00:35:12,270 --> 00:35:10,839 and found that they just were bad papers 887 00:35:15,510 --> 00:35:12,280 and they were rejecting them it was that 888 00:35:17,339 --> 00:35:15,520 he said these weird things about oh this 889 00:35:19,589 --> 00:35:17,349 is outside the scope of the journal that 890 00:35:21,539 --> 00:35:19,599 you're trying to publish in or you know 891 00:35:23,430 --> 00:35:21,549 this or that so just some kind of odd 892 00:35:25,020 --> 00:35:23,440 reasons which I think supports the side 893 00:35:25,660 --> 00:35:25,030 to you that because of the type of 894 00:35:27,700 --> 00:35:25,670 nature 895 00:35:30,819 --> 00:35:27,710 that some journals might be reluctant to 896 00:35:32,620 --> 00:35:30,829 even publish stuff like that but like I 897 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:32,630 said because of just the the numbers we 898 00:35:37,779 --> 00:35:35,170 have if there was more of a you know 899 00:35:39,730 --> 00:35:37,789 concentrated effort to get these things 900 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:39,740 published I think the odds are yeah we 901 00:35:43,630 --> 00:35:41,930 would get a lot but you know that just 902 00:35:45,549 --> 00:35:43,640 hasn't happened as much as I would like 903 00:35:48,190 --> 00:35:45,559 it to yeah well it's gonna be up to the 904 00:35:49,870 --> 00:35:48,200 obviously up to the individuals to make 905 00:35:51,839 --> 00:35:49,880 that decision but in from from my 906 00:35:54,549 --> 00:35:51,849 perspective that kind of seemed like 907 00:35:56,710 --> 00:35:54,559 evidence that the case isn't that strong 908 00:35:59,109 --> 00:35:56,720 because if the the case was a fairly 909 00:36:01,089 --> 00:35:59,119 strong case wouldn't it be fairly 910 00:36:03,910 --> 00:36:01,099 straightforward to have hundreds of 911 00:36:08,829 --> 00:36:03,920 people writing papers explaining what 912 00:36:12,490 --> 00:36:08,839 the case was um to an extent now I will 913 00:36:15,670 --> 00:36:12,500 say that there is as far as I know 914 00:36:18,430 --> 00:36:15,680 currently some work to get that done 915 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:18,440 you know I am like I said retired from 916 00:36:22,390 --> 00:36:20,450 the movement for the most part but I've 917 00:36:24,190 --> 00:36:22,400 got you know friends on Facebook who are 918 00:36:25,690 --> 00:36:24,200 in the movement who post things about it 919 00:36:27,970 --> 00:36:25,700 so I do keep up-to-date with what's 920 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:27,980 going on and from what I understand 921 00:36:32,049 --> 00:36:29,930 there was somebody from architects and 922 00:36:33,999 --> 00:36:32,059 engineers who is actually gonna be 923 00:36:35,890 --> 00:36:34,009 presenting a conference paper at an 924 00:36:39,220 --> 00:36:35,900 engineering conference which that's 925 00:36:42,249 --> 00:36:39,230 great I think part of the problem too is 926 00:36:44,710 --> 00:36:42,259 that maybe a lot of this is kind of like 927 00:36:47,559 --> 00:36:44,720 you know a little late to the game 928 00:36:49,089 --> 00:36:47,569 like I would its terms like presenting 929 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:49,099 an engineering paper and a major 930 00:36:54,940 --> 00:36:51,170 conference I would have much rather that 931 00:36:58,720 --> 00:36:54,950 happened you know like in 2006 or 2007 932 00:37:00,849 --> 00:36:58,730 rather than 2019 like I think it'd have 933 00:37:03,039 --> 00:37:00,859 been much better because that's another 934 00:37:05,069 --> 00:37:03,049 reason why I feel like there's 935 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:05,079 stagnation in the movement is because 936 00:37:09,430 --> 00:37:07,490 the more the years go on the kind of the 937 00:37:11,319 --> 00:37:09,440 less interest people have in 9/11 and 938 00:37:12,910 --> 00:37:11,329 they have the mindset of oh that 939 00:37:16,329 --> 00:37:12,920 happened in the past we need to move on 940 00:37:17,799 --> 00:37:16,339 from it it seems like this is something 941 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:17,809 that we kind of needed to get a new 942 00:37:23,259 --> 00:37:20,690 investigation into pretty quickly like 943 00:37:25,329 --> 00:37:23,269 it's a little sooner than you know the 944 00:37:26,799 --> 00:37:25,339 activities that are going on now like we 945 00:37:30,039 --> 00:37:26,809 might be at that point where even if we 946 00:37:33,190 --> 00:37:30,049 did have evidence that would you know be 947 00:37:34,839 --> 00:37:33,200 conclusive that itself might not get us 948 00:37:36,370 --> 00:37:34,849 a new investigation because the public 949 00:37:37,870 --> 00:37:36,380 interest has just gone down so much that 950 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:37,880 nobody wants to even take up this issue 951 00:37:41,510 --> 00:37:38,450 anyway 952 00:37:44,660 --> 00:37:41,520 but surely if there was some conclusive 953 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:44,670 evidence and that would be very 954 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:50,010 difficult to ignore and um to a degree 955 00:37:54,850 --> 00:37:52,410 I'd also would say we're at that point 956 00:37:57,110 --> 00:37:54,860 where a lot of the evidence sort of 957 00:38:00,800 --> 00:37:57,120 because of the years of going on is not 958 00:38:02,900 --> 00:38:00,810 you know accessible to us anymore like 959 00:38:04,460 --> 00:38:02,910 one example is it'd be great to do more 960 00:38:07,580 --> 00:38:04,470 studies of like the dust from Ground 961 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:07,590 Zero um to see what's there but because 962 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:09,690 so many years have gone by you know 963 00:38:14,420 --> 00:38:10,890 aughh seen the wreckage it's been 964 00:38:16,730 --> 00:38:14,430 cleared away I don't know because I'm 965 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:16,740 not a chemist or an explosive expert but 966 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:18,330 a lot of the you know if there was 967 00:38:23,300 --> 00:38:21,450 explosive material there it might have 968 00:38:24,710 --> 00:38:23,310 you know kind of deteriorated at this 969 00:38:26,720 --> 00:38:24,720 point like may not even be able to 970 00:38:29,930 --> 00:38:26,730 detect it even if we had like access to 971 00:38:32,030 --> 00:38:29,940 more dust samples so that's the other 972 00:38:35,420 --> 00:38:32,040 thing too is just like the you know 973 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:35,430 expiring of the evidence might be going 974 00:38:40,550 --> 00:38:38,370 on to an extent to to where no matter 975 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:40,560 what we want to look into the evidence 976 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:42,330 is just it's just gone we don't have 977 00:38:46,850 --> 00:38:43,890 access to it anymore and have no way of 978 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:46,860 getting access to it so I do think that 979 00:38:50,750 --> 00:38:48,330 as far as getting a new investigation 980 00:38:52,310 --> 00:38:50,760 it's something that it if it was gonna 981 00:38:55,820 --> 00:38:52,320 happen I think it needed to happen a lot 982 00:38:58,130 --> 00:38:55,830 sooner than then later basically mm-hmm 983 00:39:02,000 --> 00:38:58,140 there's some things that you personally 984 00:39:04,430 --> 00:39:02,010 I think considered to be fairly absolute 985 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:04,440 evidence like things like the the speed 986 00:39:09,020 --> 00:39:07,050 at which the buildings collapsed mm-hmm 987 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:09,030 I don't know if you feel more strongly 988 00:39:15,710 --> 00:39:13,770 about the towers or building seven but 989 00:39:18,380 --> 00:39:15,720 you know wouldn't you personally say 990 00:39:21,140 --> 00:39:18,390 that that's conclusive evidence that it 991 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:21,150 was not a fire and impact driven 992 00:39:29,330 --> 00:39:27,330 collapse well I would say that the rate 993 00:39:32,030 --> 00:39:29,340 of the collapses and I do think that is 994 00:39:33,620 --> 00:39:32,040 indicative demolition probably more for 995 00:39:35,060 --> 00:39:33,630 Building seven than for the towers 996 00:39:37,390 --> 00:39:35,070 because as you know if anybody knows 997 00:39:42,290 --> 00:39:37,400 building seven came down in freefall for 998 00:39:45,950 --> 00:39:42,300 100 stories for a few seconds so I do 999 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:45,960 think that's pretty conclusive but I'd 1000 00:39:51,350 --> 00:39:48,330 say that tentatively like I personally 1001 00:39:55,730 --> 00:39:51,360 have not seen a good explanation 1002 00:39:57,740 --> 00:39:55,740 for that yet you know like I'll say it 1003 00:39:59,180 --> 00:39:57,750 here if you ask me am I like a hundred 1004 00:40:01,610 --> 00:39:59,190 percent certain the towers were 1005 00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:01,620 demolished I would say no I think it's 1006 00:40:06,770 --> 00:40:04,110 very likely but I'm certainly open to 1007 00:40:09,110 --> 00:40:06,780 the notion that they weren't I just 1008 00:40:10,430 --> 00:40:09,120 haven't seen conclusive arguments or 1009 00:40:12,500 --> 00:40:10,440 evidence to you know convince me 1010 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:12,510 otherwise but I certainly feel like I 1011 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:14,970 can have my mind changed but you know I 1012 00:40:18,430 --> 00:40:16,410 guess the flipside of that is that you 1013 00:40:21,230 --> 00:40:18,440 haven't seen conclusive evidence that 1014 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:21,240 proves that it is or cause convinced you 1015 00:40:27,500 --> 00:40:25,050 that it is yeah I have not seen a good 1016 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:27,510 explanation for example that explains 1017 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:29,370 how building seven could have come down 1018 00:40:35,030 --> 00:40:33,090 for example in terms of how it collapsed 1019 00:40:38,450 --> 00:40:35,040 at the rate it did and how the building 1020 00:40:42,290 --> 00:40:38,460 itself behaved like I'll just give one 1021 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:42,300 example real quick if I can yeah so the 1022 00:40:47,830 --> 00:40:44,610 explanation I've usually heard for why 1023 00:40:50,540 --> 00:40:47,840 building 7 collapse as quickly as it did 1024 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:50,550 it for free fall and even after that is 1025 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:53,850 because what we're seeing in the videos 1026 00:40:59,780 --> 00:40:56,850 is just the outer shell of the building 1027 00:41:02,240 --> 00:40:59,790 collapse and that the interior is what 1028 00:41:04,010 --> 00:41:02,250 collapsed first and then what you had 1029 00:41:05,780 --> 00:41:04,020 was basically in the shell in the 1030 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:05,790 building and that's basically what NIST 1031 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:07,410 says about the collapse they say that 1032 00:41:12,620 --> 00:41:09,930 you had this progressive collapse going 1033 00:41:13,940 --> 00:41:12,630 across or the the interior collapse 1034 00:41:16,850 --> 00:41:13,950 first and then you see the perimeter 1035 00:41:19,970 --> 00:41:16,860 falling down and that would explain why 1036 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:19,980 it collapsed quickly as it did but the 1037 00:41:24,380 --> 00:41:22,530 problem I have with that is if the 1038 00:41:28,250 --> 00:41:24,390 interior is collapsing before the 1039 00:41:31,910 --> 00:41:28,260 exterior why don't we see you know these 1040 00:41:33,380 --> 00:41:31,920 large deformations in deformity in the 1041 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:33,390 shell itself as the interior is coming 1042 00:41:37,850 --> 00:41:35,970 down and that's a problem that not even 1043 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:37,860 just people in the truth movement have 1044 00:41:42,050 --> 00:41:40,650 even the bunkers have had that dr. frank 1045 00:41:47,720 --> 00:41:42,060 greening for example if you're familiar 1046 00:41:50,240 --> 00:41:47,730 with him he wrote a paper to nist it was 1047 00:41:53,060 --> 00:41:50,250 feedback on their draft report for their 1048 00:41:55,790 --> 00:41:53,070 building 7 report and he said that yeah 1049 00:41:57,980 --> 00:41:55,800 the interior you know is connected to 1050 00:42:00,380 --> 00:41:57,990 the exterior by dozens of girders and 1051 00:42:03,050 --> 00:42:00,390 beams and we should have seen all this 1052 00:42:05,130 --> 00:42:03,060 you know deforming happening on the 1053 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:05,140 outside of it but 1054 00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:09,130 don't see that and then I hear people 1055 00:42:12,779 --> 00:42:10,510 say and I think it was even nist who 1056 00:42:14,819 --> 00:42:12,789 said this and some debunkers that well 1057 00:42:17,849 --> 00:42:14,829 it's because you know the outer shell 1058 00:42:19,890 --> 00:42:17,859 was you know sturdy and strong enough to 1059 00:42:22,589 --> 00:42:19,900 not deform as the interior was coming 1060 00:42:25,019 --> 00:42:22,599 down but I hear that and think but wait 1061 00:42:27,269 --> 00:42:25,029 you're also saying that the exterior was 1062 00:42:29,220 --> 00:42:27,279 weak enough then that's why it allowed 1063 00:42:31,410 --> 00:42:29,230 it to collapse as quickly as it did so 1064 00:42:34,559 --> 00:42:31,420 it's like you can't argue that the 1065 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:34,569 exterior was both strong and weak you 1066 00:42:38,220 --> 00:42:36,010 can't say that it was strong enough to 1067 00:42:40,559 --> 00:42:38,230 avoid deforming as the interior was 1068 00:42:41,730 --> 00:42:40,569 coming down but also say it was weak 1069 00:42:43,470 --> 00:42:41,740 enough that allowed the building to 1070 00:42:45,839 --> 00:42:43,480 collapse as quickly as it did you know 1071 00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:45,849 for two nanoseconds in total free fall 1072 00:42:52,380 --> 00:42:48,609 so that's a bizarre contradiction that I 1073 00:42:54,089 --> 00:42:52,390 don't see a good explanation for um as 1074 00:42:55,710 --> 00:42:54,099 far as why the building collapse the way 1075 00:42:58,170 --> 00:42:55,720 it did like it seemed like the building 1076 00:43:00,990 --> 00:42:58,180 kept its shape pretty well like aside 1077 00:43:02,220 --> 00:43:01,000 from the kink as it was collapsing it 1078 00:43:04,470 --> 00:43:02,230 seems like it kept its shape pretty well 1079 00:43:06,210 --> 00:43:04,480 as it was collapsing and you know I've 1080 00:43:07,710 --> 00:43:06,220 seen that happen and that's in buildings 1081 00:43:09,420 --> 00:43:07,720 that have you known abroad down a 1082 00:43:11,130 --> 00:43:09,430 demolition I've seen demolitions where 1083 00:43:13,529 --> 00:43:11,140 when the building comes down it kind of 1084 00:43:16,829 --> 00:43:13,539 keeps its shape for the most part you 1085 00:43:18,269 --> 00:43:16,839 know as its collapsing so that's one way 1086 00:43:20,519 --> 00:43:18,279 that that can happen and that seems 1087 00:43:22,859 --> 00:43:20,529 consistent with a demolition when I look 1088 00:43:24,509 --> 00:43:22,869 at building seven yes an interesting 1089 00:43:27,499 --> 00:43:24,519 thing that your description there of 1090 00:43:31,019 --> 00:43:27,509 your objections to the the the argument 1091 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:31,029 and I don't want to I mean it sounds 1092 00:43:38,370 --> 00:43:36,970 like yeah no I I don't really have a 1093 00:43:40,349 --> 00:43:38,380 better explanation right my explanation 1094 00:43:43,980 --> 00:43:40,359 is the same it's that the exterior of 1095 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:43,990 the building is a moment resisting frame 1096 00:43:48,390 --> 00:43:45,970 which means that all the connections are 1097 00:43:49,799 --> 00:43:48,400 bolted in all directions so that none of 1098 00:43:52,079 --> 00:43:49,809 nothing can bend no matter which way 1099 00:43:54,710 --> 00:43:52,089 whereas the interior connections are 1100 00:43:56,910 --> 00:43:54,720 only basically supporting connections 1101 00:43:59,249 --> 00:43:56,920 they support the vertical load of the 1102 00:44:01,680 --> 00:43:59,259 building and they support the the floors 1103 00:44:03,839 --> 00:44:01,690 on these on the shelves or the various 1104 00:44:05,370 --> 00:44:03,849 connections that they have so when the 1105 00:44:08,039 --> 00:44:05,380 columns collapse in the middle of the 1106 00:44:10,529 --> 00:44:08,049 building that falls down and it kind of 1107 00:44:14,130 --> 00:44:10,539 the floors kind of pivot around the 1108 00:44:17,190 --> 00:44:14,140 exterior connections and then they kind 1109 00:44:18,870 --> 00:44:17,200 of flop down and the exterior connection 1110 00:44:22,870 --> 00:44:18,880 because it's moment resisting 1111 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:22,880 resisting turning forces it doesn't it 1112 00:44:26,890 --> 00:44:24,770 doesn't twist in which where the 1113 00:44:28,270 --> 00:44:26,900 interiors collapse because you know it's 1114 00:44:30,430 --> 00:44:28,280 its strength is being removed like the 1115 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:30,440 columns the support strength and then 1116 00:44:35,410 --> 00:44:34,010 when it when it falls it's kind of in a 1117 00:44:37,270 --> 00:44:35,420 way like what they do with a controlled 1118 00:44:40,870 --> 00:44:37,280 demolition and that they blow out a 1119 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:40,880 number of sections of the of the 1120 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:42,410 building and then the building will 1121 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:44,930 collapse from from the bottom bottom 1122 00:44:49,660 --> 00:44:47,210 down in botany the pig falls into the 1123 00:44:52,650 --> 00:44:49,670 bottom essentially except that what 1124 00:44:54,490 --> 00:44:52,660 happened here was that the building 1125 00:44:56,950 --> 00:44:54,500 kinked the exterior of the building 1126 00:44:58,630 --> 00:44:56,960 kinked at the bottom and that King kind 1127 00:44:59,950 --> 00:44:58,640 of progressed all the way around and the 1128 00:45:01,060 --> 00:44:59,960 building just kind of fell more or less 1129 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:01,070 straight down because he had no 1130 00:45:05,710 --> 00:45:02,690 supporting strengthen it whish went dumb 1131 00:45:08,590 --> 00:45:05,720 dumb dumb down the bottom and that you 1132 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:08,600 know it makes sense to me but you're 1133 00:45:13,090 --> 00:45:10,130 both of those we just gave explanations 1134 00:45:15,790 --> 00:45:13,100 of things but they're only based on on 1135 00:45:17,020 --> 00:45:15,800 words it's a verbal description and you 1136 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:17,030 can say oh here's the description of 1137 00:45:19,870 --> 00:45:18,170 what happens but it doesn't make any 1138 00:45:20,890 --> 00:45:19,880 sense that you know that would be strong 1139 00:45:22,630 --> 00:45:20,900 enough where he wouldn't be strong 1140 00:45:24,970 --> 00:45:22,640 enough or whatever or I'm saying it does 1141 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:24,980 make sense so what you've really got to 1142 00:45:28,540 --> 00:45:26,690 do is do the math and the physics you 1143 00:45:29,950 --> 00:45:28,550 could have actually work it out I don't 1144 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:29,960 think you're ever gonna convince people 1145 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:34,010 based on these verbal descriptions sure 1146 00:45:38,980 --> 00:45:35,330 and and that's a fair point 1147 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:38,990 um I will just say I'm not sure people 1148 00:45:43,390 --> 00:45:41,090 can find it if people want to read dr. 1149 00:45:46,540 --> 00:45:43,400 Frank readings a paper that he wrote as 1150 00:45:49,690 --> 00:45:46,550 a critique of the NIST report making pie 1151 00:45:52,660 --> 00:45:49,700 I find it somewhere online I probably 1152 00:45:53,950 --> 00:45:52,670 reference it somewhere on my old blog if 1153 00:45:56,050 --> 00:45:53,960 people are interested and want to go to 1154 00:45:59,920 --> 00:45:56,060 my old blog I don't write there anymore 1155 00:46:02,950 --> 00:45:59,930 but it's a Adam Taylor for two dot blog 1156 00:46:06,550 --> 00:46:02,960 spot.com and they can find that if they 1157 00:46:08,950 --> 00:46:06,560 can find all my writings on 9/11 if they 1158 00:46:10,510 --> 00:46:08,960 would like to they're so inclined to 1159 00:46:13,180 --> 00:46:10,520 check it out like I said I don't write 1160 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:13,190 there anymore but I'm still you know 1161 00:46:18,850 --> 00:46:14,810 pretty happy with what I wrote there and 1162 00:46:20,950 --> 00:46:18,860 you know can fat for most of it but yeah 1163 00:46:22,240 --> 00:46:20,960 I feel like some people have put for 1164 00:46:24,550 --> 00:46:22,250 these numbers that show that the 1165 00:46:25,930 --> 00:46:24,560 building is really not collapsing in a 1166 00:46:28,300 --> 00:46:25,940 consistent way like you're saying that 1167 00:46:29,550 --> 00:46:28,310 the moment resisting of the structure 1168 00:46:32,790 --> 00:46:29,560 that that 1169 00:46:34,230 --> 00:46:32,800 itself would allow it to avoid deforming 1170 00:46:36,810 --> 00:46:34,240 the soul allow it to collapse as quickly 1171 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:36,820 as it is once it actually lose its 1172 00:46:43,620 --> 00:46:38,530 strength because it has to reach a point 1173 00:46:45,810 --> 00:46:43,630 of failure and I think if the interior 1174 00:46:48,180 --> 00:46:45,820 of the building was pulling in the walls 1175 00:46:49,740 --> 00:46:48,190 it would fail at that point so it's kind 1176 00:46:51,990 --> 00:46:49,750 of like Hina is standing on a soda can 1177 00:46:54,300 --> 00:46:52,000 and it's able to support your your 1178 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:54,310 weight but when you just push it to push 1179 00:46:58,230 --> 00:46:55,330 the wall and a little bit and it 1180 00:46:59,700 --> 00:46:58,240 collapses yeah it seems like essentially 1181 00:47:00,839 --> 00:46:59,710 the same thing to me except they should 1182 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:00,849 write down at the bottom and obviously 1183 00:47:04,589 --> 00:47:03,010 there's issues of scale which you know 1184 00:47:05,700 --> 00:47:04,599 change the equation but essentially I 1185 00:47:09,359 --> 00:47:05,710 think that's what happened to the 1186 00:47:10,830 --> 00:47:09,369 exterior of the building you know I just 1187 00:47:12,750 --> 00:47:10,840 find it hard to believe that all of that 1188 00:47:14,670 --> 00:47:12,760 is going on inside the building and you 1189 00:47:16,170 --> 00:47:14,680 know for the most part we see no aside 1190 00:47:18,510 --> 00:47:16,180 from some windows breaking because we do 1191 00:47:20,790 --> 00:47:18,520 see that I find it hard to believe that 1192 00:47:23,310 --> 00:47:20,800 you don't see any kind of you know 1193 00:47:24,720 --> 00:47:23,320 deformities happening I believe dr. 1194 00:47:27,750 --> 00:47:24,730 greening said that what you should see 1195 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:27,760 is like a you know the exterior actually 1196 00:47:31,609 --> 00:47:29,890 kind of bowing as a result of that which 1197 00:47:33,720 --> 00:47:31,619 I think you can actually see in one of 1198 00:47:36,540 --> 00:47:33,730 mrs. computer models that there actually 1199 00:47:38,310 --> 00:47:36,550 is as the moment comes down this kind of 1200 00:47:40,260 --> 00:47:38,320 bowing that happens at the top of it so 1201 00:47:42,420 --> 00:47:40,270 that would be consistent with with that 1202 00:47:44,820 --> 00:47:42,430 as well it's an interesting thing I saw 1203 00:47:47,010 --> 00:47:44,830 on video I worked like a year ago I 1204 00:47:49,589 --> 00:47:47,020 notice that other people notice it too 1205 00:47:51,630 --> 00:47:49,599 is that when the penthouse falls down 1206 00:47:53,730 --> 00:47:51,640 you can actually see like a wave go all 1207 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:53,740 the way down through the visible visible 1208 00:47:57,630 --> 00:47:55,330 portion of the building like the 1209 00:47:58,339 --> 00:47:57,640 penthouse is falling from the top to the 1210 00:48:00,960 --> 00:47:58,349 bottom 1211 00:48:02,550 --> 00:48:00,970 yeah I've seen videos people have done 1212 00:48:03,990 --> 00:48:02,560 where they kind of take a video and they 1213 00:48:05,730 --> 00:48:04,000 like color enhance it so you can 1214 00:48:09,140 --> 00:48:05,740 actually see the penthouse going all the 1215 00:48:11,730 --> 00:48:09,150 way down to it yeah 1216 00:48:13,950 --> 00:48:11,740 so I've seen that too so yeah I think 1217 00:48:15,930 --> 00:48:13,960 the penthouse I don't see how it 1218 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:15,940 couldn't either I'm sure it is going all 1219 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:17,890 the way down to the to the bottom of it 1220 00:48:23,460 --> 00:48:20,770 but then you got other people like Toni 1221 00:48:24,930 --> 00:48:23,470 somebody who says that that didn't 1222 00:48:29,670 --> 00:48:24,940 happen and the penthouse just fell down 1223 00:48:32,370 --> 00:48:29,680 a couple of floors because yeah and and 1224 00:48:33,540 --> 00:48:32,380 I heard that from him too and I think I 1225 00:48:36,990 --> 00:48:33,550 thought at the time he had something 1226 00:48:38,690 --> 00:48:37,000 there but then I saw like videos people 1227 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:38,700 had done where they could show it and 1228 00:48:42,660 --> 00:48:41,170 his whole thing was he was just saying 1229 00:48:43,230 --> 00:48:42,670 that because you didn't see sunlight 1230 00:48:45,060 --> 00:48:43,240 coming through 1231 00:48:48,810 --> 00:48:45,070 the windows you saw something like 1232 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:48,820 coming through the top portion where it 1233 00:48:51,690 --> 00:48:50,050 had fallen but you don't see it further 1234 00:48:54,450 --> 00:48:51,700 down so that's what he was basing that 1235 00:48:57,839 --> 00:48:54,460 off of and maybe he's wrong about that 1236 00:49:00,150 --> 00:48:57,849 but I don't think that's you know in a 1237 00:49:02,460 --> 00:49:00,160 rational thing to conclude if you base 1238 00:49:04,410 --> 00:49:02,470 it off something like that now we could 1239 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:04,420 probably go with the details endlessly 1240 00:49:09,570 --> 00:49:07,570 yeah yeah it's getting a carry on like 1241 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:09,580 with your your kind of story here well 1242 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:11,770 you mentioned the the University of 1243 00:49:15,870 --> 00:49:14,530 Alaska study real real quick and do you 1244 00:49:17,730 --> 00:49:15,880 know much about that this is something a 1245 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:17,740 study funded by architects and engineers 1246 00:49:22,980 --> 00:49:21,490 for 9/11 truth to demonstrate what might 1247 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:22,990 have been the cause of the collapse of 1248 00:49:27,870 --> 00:49:25,810 building 7 yeah I've looked at that a 1249 00:49:30,180 --> 00:49:27,880 little bit I know they still have not 1250 00:49:31,349 --> 00:49:30,190 published the final version of it which 1251 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:31,359 is the other thing that's kind of bugged 1252 00:49:37,890 --> 00:49:34,930 me I've given them a little bit more 1253 00:49:41,930 --> 00:49:37,900 leeway on it just because I know this is 1254 00:49:44,310 --> 00:49:41,940 a big project and I also feel like 1255 00:49:45,690 --> 00:49:44,320 people shouldn't be too harsh on that 1256 00:49:48,690 --> 00:49:45,700 because when you look at how long it 1257 00:49:51,870 --> 00:49:48,700 took NIST to get their building 7 report 1258 00:49:54,089 --> 00:49:51,880 out you know that was a whole big thing 1259 00:49:55,859 --> 00:49:54,099 too that just kept setting dates for 1260 00:49:58,320 --> 00:49:55,869 when they release it and they didn't 1261 00:50:00,930 --> 00:49:58,330 release it and I'm you know this is kind 1262 00:50:03,390 --> 00:50:00,940 of the same case here and I think 1263 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:03,400 they're supposed to the next date of 1264 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:05,890 release they said is this September I 1265 00:50:09,839 --> 00:50:08,410 hope it gets released yeah I think I'd 1266 00:50:13,500 --> 00:50:09,849 like to see it around the anniversary 1267 00:50:16,050 --> 00:50:13,510 again yeah so I hope that gets released 1268 00:50:18,990 --> 00:50:16,060 and I kind of have the same conclusion 1269 00:50:21,750 --> 00:50:19,000 about that as I have about other aspects 1270 00:50:25,260 --> 00:50:21,760 of the movement is if it gets done great 1271 00:50:27,810 --> 00:50:25,270 but you know until I see it I'm not 1272 00:50:29,579 --> 00:50:27,820 gonna get my hopes up it's very much you 1273 00:50:31,530 --> 00:50:29,589 know show me the money kind of thing 1274 00:50:32,849 --> 00:50:31,540 like I want to see the actual words on 1275 00:50:35,250 --> 00:50:32,859 the page I want to see this thing 1276 00:50:37,410 --> 00:50:35,260 actually almost out there it looks 1277 00:50:38,730 --> 00:50:37,420 promising but I can't say for sure 1278 00:50:40,170 --> 00:50:38,740 unless they actually put out a final 1279 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:40,180 version of it it will be very 1280 00:50:43,170 --> 00:50:41,290 interesting because it is kind of 1281 00:50:44,579 --> 00:50:43,180 putting numbers to the you know the 1282 00:50:46,500 --> 00:50:44,589 description we just have they're like 1283 00:50:49,859 --> 00:50:46,510 you know could it possibly happen so 1284 00:50:52,500 --> 00:50:49,869 they they did various tests I kind of 1285 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:52,510 feel like there professor hull see is a 1286 00:50:56,580 --> 00:50:56,170 little bit biased towards the control 1287 00:50:58,710 --> 00:50:56,590 down 1288 00:51:00,300 --> 00:50:58,720 in hypothesis but you know we will wait 1289 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:00,310 and say you see what the actual study 1290 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:04,090 itself shows that might be and I think 1291 00:51:08,460 --> 00:51:06,010 it's a good thing they're doing what 1292 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:08,470 NIST did and it's gonna be available for 1293 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:10,450 public comment that you know regardless 1294 00:51:14,700 --> 00:51:13,090 of whatever biases the researchers 1295 00:51:16,500 --> 00:51:14,710 involved in it might have at least 1296 00:51:19,170 --> 00:51:16,510 everybody will get to you know submit 1297 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:19,180 comments on it I'll read it when it 1298 00:51:24,510 --> 00:51:22,090 comes out maybe maybe even submit my own 1299 00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:24,520 comments we'll say it was a bit 1300 00:51:29,070 --> 00:51:26,650 disappointing that they started out with 1301 00:51:32,700 --> 00:51:29,080 more promises of openness than they 1302 00:51:33,870 --> 00:51:32,710 actually kind of ended up doing they I 1303 00:51:35,450 --> 00:51:33,880 think it was like almost three years ago 1304 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:35,460 now they started it and they have some 1305 00:51:40,710 --> 00:51:38,410 videos of the two graduate students and 1306 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:40,720 professor Halsey talking about their 1307 00:51:44,250 --> 00:51:42,370 work and then just nothing nothing 1308 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:44,260 that's like complete silence after that 1309 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:46,210 for the next three years he did one 1310 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:51,010 presentation doing a summary but they 1311 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:53,650 didn't really I think involved the 1312 00:51:57,570 --> 00:51:56,050 community in the way that they said they 1313 00:51:59,010 --> 00:51:57,580 were going to do at the start which was 1314 00:52:01,130 --> 00:51:59,020 a bit disappointing but you know we'll 1315 00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:01,140 we'll read the report when he comes in 1316 00:52:13,500 --> 00:52:06,250 right so let's get to your you know kind 1317 00:52:17,220 --> 00:52:13,510 of Ryan Mackey he had a paper on 1318 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:17,230 analyzing the truth movement and you you 1319 00:52:21,450 --> 00:52:19,330 you obviously disagree with a lot of it 1320 00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:21,460 be you you there's one suggestion of his 1321 00:52:27,330 --> 00:52:23,410 that you can have took to heart which 1322 00:52:32,150 --> 00:52:27,340 was take a break yes sir what happened 1323 00:52:34,590 --> 00:52:32,160 that well like I said I read his paper 1324 00:52:36,390 --> 00:52:34,600 and you know some of it I don't agree 1325 00:52:38,070 --> 00:52:36,400 with some of it I thought you know he 1326 00:52:41,190 --> 00:52:38,080 made good points and that was a good 1327 00:52:44,430 --> 00:52:41,200 point because he put that paper out in 1328 00:52:47,580 --> 00:52:44,440 2011 I can't remember if it was before 1329 00:52:49,530 --> 00:52:47,590 or after I went to ground zero but you 1330 00:52:51,150 --> 00:52:49,540 know it was around it was at around the 1331 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:51,160 same time that I was kind of having this 1332 00:52:55,980 --> 00:52:54,370 feeling of you know like I said the 1333 00:52:59,160 --> 00:52:55,990 stagnation in the truth movement that 1334 00:53:00,260 --> 00:52:59,170 the momentum was going down it seemed 1335 00:53:02,070 --> 00:53:00,270 like we're gonna like actually 1336 00:53:05,010 --> 00:53:02,080 accomplish our goals and get an 1337 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:05,020 investigation and you know I thought his 1338 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:08,410 suggestion about like just walking away 1339 00:53:12,420 --> 00:53:10,210 taking a break from it just 1340 00:53:13,890 --> 00:53:12,430 you feel about it was a good one you 1341 00:53:16,380 --> 00:53:13,900 know I mean he's right in the paper when 1342 00:53:18,180 --> 00:53:16,390 he says he suggests like taking a month 1343 00:53:19,740 --> 00:53:18,190 off from it and he's right when he says 1344 00:53:23,310 --> 00:53:19,750 yeah there's no harm and just taking a 1345 00:53:25,170 --> 00:53:23,320 month off from it and I did and I took 1346 00:53:28,500 --> 00:53:25,180 like several months off you know from 1347 00:53:31,290 --> 00:53:28,510 time to time and you know it was fine I 1348 00:53:33,210 --> 00:53:31,300 never had an issue with walking away 1349 00:53:36,390 --> 00:53:33,220 from it for a bid or even coming back to 1350 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:36,400 it um you know it didn't really have 1351 00:53:40,740 --> 00:53:38,490 much of a I didn't feel like I was like 1352 00:53:42,150 --> 00:53:40,750 addicted like oh I have to get back into 1353 00:53:46,410 --> 00:53:42,160 this you know I can't stand to be away 1354 00:53:48,030 --> 00:53:46,420 from this research no I felt fine and I 1355 00:53:50,490 --> 00:53:48,040 think it was it was good for me 1356 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:50,500 you know those periods of just stepping 1357 00:53:55,980 --> 00:53:53,650 away and focusing on other things in my 1358 00:54:00,210 --> 00:53:55,990 life things have been doing now like I'm 1359 00:54:03,300 --> 00:54:00,220 focusing on more things you know I still 1360 00:54:05,310 --> 00:54:03,310 fully 100% support a new investigation 1361 00:54:08,370 --> 00:54:05,320 of the attacks like I absolutely do I 1362 00:54:10,260 --> 00:54:08,380 want to see that happen I would love to 1363 00:54:11,790 --> 00:54:10,270 see that be the case so we can really 1364 00:54:13,980 --> 00:54:11,800 get justice for all the people who are 1365 00:54:18,690 --> 00:54:13,990 killed that day and all of their friends 1366 00:54:20,430 --> 00:54:18,700 and family but you know I I have to be 1367 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:20,440 realistic about it and I have to say to 1368 00:54:24,210 --> 00:54:22,210 myself if it doesn't seem like we're 1369 00:54:25,820 --> 00:54:24,220 getting a new investigation we're 1370 00:54:29,609 --> 00:54:25,830 probably not getting a new investigation 1371 00:54:31,620 --> 00:54:29,619 so if that's something that I you know 1372 00:54:34,050 --> 00:54:31,630 had to come to accept and I do accept 1373 00:54:36,030 --> 00:54:34,060 and I do think at this point unless 1374 00:54:38,849 --> 00:54:36,040 something really big happens unless 1375 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:38,859 there's some real big thing that could 1376 00:54:42,329 --> 00:54:40,690 kind of reignite that momentum in the 1377 00:54:43,500 --> 00:54:42,339 truth movement I just don't see how 1378 00:54:47,790 --> 00:54:43,510 we're gonna get a new investigation 1379 00:54:52,140 --> 00:54:47,800 based on what we've currently got you 1380 00:54:53,790 --> 00:54:52,150 said that researching 911 took a toll on 1381 00:55:04,370 --> 00:54:53,800 you 1382 00:55:07,589 --> 00:55:04,380 much time doing this 9/11 investigation 1383 00:55:10,380 --> 00:55:07,599 um I don't know if I would say better 1384 00:55:12,540 --> 00:55:10,390 like I don't think my life was worse for 1385 00:55:15,870 --> 00:55:12,550 looking into 9/11 I want to emphasize 1386 00:55:18,570 --> 00:55:15,880 that like I actually am very grateful 1387 00:55:21,870 --> 00:55:18,580 that I got involved you know the way I 1388 00:55:23,660 --> 00:55:21,880 did I met a lot of amazing people I 1389 00:55:26,630 --> 00:55:23,670 learned an enormous amount 1390 00:55:29,210 --> 00:55:26,640 uh about not just that 11 but a lot of 1391 00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:29,220 related subjects like it really you know 1392 00:55:35,089 --> 00:55:32,970 led me into looking into a lot of other 1393 00:55:37,609 --> 00:55:35,099 like bigger world issues which I think 1394 00:55:38,450 --> 00:55:37,619 was a good thing for me to do so I'll 1395 00:55:40,490 --> 00:55:38,460 make that very clear 1396 00:55:42,260 --> 00:55:40,500 I don't regret at all getting involved 1397 00:55:43,910 --> 00:55:42,270 in the truth movement I do think it was 1398 00:55:45,109 --> 00:55:43,920 a rewarding experience that I felt like 1399 00:55:49,010 --> 00:55:45,119 it was a good cause 1400 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:49,020 to uh to work towards but you know it's 1401 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:50,490 one of those things where you do it for 1402 00:55:55,700 --> 00:55:52,650 so long and especially if you don't see 1403 00:55:57,319 --> 00:55:55,710 any progress getting getting made yeah 1404 00:56:00,079 --> 00:55:57,329 it can take a toll on you you kind of 1405 00:56:02,170 --> 00:56:00,089 realize you know there's a point where 1406 00:56:05,319 --> 00:56:02,180 you realize yeah maybe I am 1407 00:56:09,530 --> 00:56:05,329 that was a wasting time on it 1408 00:56:11,150 --> 00:56:09,540 necessarily but you know I have a lot of 1409 00:56:14,109 --> 00:56:11,160 potential to do other things as well 1410 00:56:17,900 --> 00:56:14,119 that I could be putting my time into 1411 00:56:20,539 --> 00:56:17,910 there's still a lot of big issues going 1412 00:56:22,849 --> 00:56:20,549 on in the world obviously and one of the 1413 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:22,859 things I say in my post is that what I 1414 00:56:26,240 --> 00:56:24,210 think people in the movement should be 1415 00:56:29,870 --> 00:56:26,250 doing if they're not looking at 911 is 1416 00:56:31,579 --> 00:56:29,880 just trying to work towards any other 1417 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:31,589 cause in the world and trying to I think 1418 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:33,690 very importantly help to prevent the 1419 00:56:39,170 --> 00:56:36,210 next 911 s from happening you know I 1420 00:56:40,910 --> 00:56:39,180 really think that if we put in as much 1421 00:56:42,950 --> 00:56:40,920 effort as when was put into to kind of 1422 00:56:45,770 --> 00:56:42,960 you know make sure that these sort of 1423 00:56:47,870 --> 00:56:45,780 attacks don't happen again and I think 1424 00:56:50,329 --> 00:56:47,880 to an extent you know if there's any 1425 00:56:52,990 --> 00:56:50,339 lasting impact the movement had I'd like 1426 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:53,000 to think that you know we did at least 1427 00:56:58,609 --> 00:56:56,490 you know did raise the public's you know 1428 00:57:00,410 --> 00:56:58,619 awareness a little bit that at the very 1429 00:57:01,970 --> 00:57:00,420 least we planted and more seeds in 1430 00:57:03,589 --> 00:57:01,980 people's heads that when these kind of 1431 00:57:06,079 --> 00:57:03,599 events happen we should be more 1432 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:06,089 skeptical about it more skeptical of it 1433 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:08,010 not to assume that like every attack is 1434 00:57:11,839 --> 00:57:10,410 you know an inside job obviously but 1435 00:57:14,420 --> 00:57:11,849 just look at things with a more 1436 00:57:16,370 --> 00:57:14,430 objective eye like really look at both 1437 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:16,380 sides more objectively and not just 1438 00:57:21,500 --> 00:57:18,530 accept everything the government says 1439 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:21,510 and I think that you know we did do that 1440 00:57:27,829 --> 00:57:26,130 I hope that is the you know absent 1441 00:57:29,329 --> 00:57:27,839 getting a new investigation I hope that 1442 00:57:31,339 --> 00:57:29,339 is the benefit that the movement brought 1443 00:57:33,950 --> 00:57:31,349 the world that you know we did do some 1444 00:57:35,450 --> 00:57:33,960 you know you know awareness and 1445 00:57:36,210 --> 00:57:35,460 consciousness arising and everything to 1446 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:36,220 kind of help you 1447 00:57:41,310 --> 00:57:39,250 along in that regard yeah yeah 1448 00:57:44,430 --> 00:57:41,320 definitely I mean I think asking 1449 00:57:46,260 --> 00:57:44,440 questions is always good I am I'm not 1450 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:46,270 comparing you to the flat earthers but 1451 00:57:50,130 --> 00:57:48,730 the flat earthers are interesting in 1452 00:57:53,430 --> 00:57:50,140 that they get into people interested in 1453 00:57:55,050 --> 00:57:53,440 science and it actually prompt some some 1454 00:57:56,339 --> 00:57:55,060 thought if people are asking questions 1455 00:57:58,020 --> 00:57:56,349 no matter what they're asking questions 1456 00:57:59,730 --> 00:57:58,030 if they if they're approaching it the 1457 00:58:00,960 --> 00:57:59,740 nice way as these are there's a question 1458 00:58:03,420 --> 00:58:00,970 and I want to figure out what the answer 1459 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:03,430 is and then you learn things and it's 1460 00:58:10,190 --> 00:58:06,490 good you were you were very young though 1461 00:58:13,620 --> 00:58:10,200 when you started you know 9/11 he was 16 1462 00:58:16,230 --> 00:58:13,630 when you you first come into it what 1463 00:58:19,670 --> 00:58:16,240 offends do you think that had on on how 1464 00:58:24,030 --> 00:58:19,680 you kind of I know got into the movement 1465 00:58:26,670 --> 00:58:24,040 looking back now as an older man well I 1466 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:26,680 certainly wish I had gotten involved 1467 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:27,970 from one thing I wish I had gotten 1468 00:58:31,830 --> 00:58:29,890 involved or could have gotten involved 1469 00:58:35,430 --> 00:58:31,840 sooner than I did because getting 1470 00:58:37,020 --> 00:58:35,440 involved in 2007 like I said that was 1471 00:58:39,270 --> 00:58:37,030 kind of the point where I'd say 1472 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:39,280 objectively the movement kind of peaked 1473 00:58:43,950 --> 00:58:40,810 it would have been great to be doing 1474 00:58:45,210 --> 00:58:43,960 stuff like prior to 2007 but you know I 1475 00:58:47,010 --> 00:58:45,220 was just too young 1476 00:58:48,750 --> 00:58:47,020 yeah you know like I said I was 10 when 1477 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:48,760 the attacks happened so there just was 1478 00:58:53,670 --> 00:58:52,210 no way for me to really do that I would 1479 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:53,680 love it if somehow I can go back in time 1480 00:58:58,980 --> 00:58:56,530 and do more as I am now because I'm 1481 00:59:01,550 --> 00:58:58,990 certainly better informed I have a 1482 00:59:03,839 --> 00:59:01,560 better idea of like the the evidence a 1483 00:59:05,220 --> 00:59:03,849 lot of theories I used to believe in 1484 00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:05,230 when I first started out that I don't 1485 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:07,450 believe anymore you know there's 1486 00:59:12,900 --> 00:59:08,890 certainly things I wish I could go back 1487 00:59:16,079 --> 00:59:12,910 and change as far as like what I did 1488 00:59:20,339 --> 00:59:16,089 I don't regret how I handled it because 1489 00:59:21,690 --> 00:59:20,349 I really did try and working with my 1490 00:59:24,390 --> 00:59:21,700 friend John Michael tombow at the 1491 00:59:26,099 --> 00:59:24,400 debunkers blog was really beneficial too 1492 00:59:27,390 --> 00:59:26,109 because he put me on kind of the right 1493 00:59:30,510 --> 00:59:27,400 path to how to look at things more 1494 00:59:31,980 --> 00:59:30,520 objectively into research these topics 1495 00:59:34,109 --> 00:59:31,990 better like that like I said that was 1496 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:34,119 really good at helping me weed out the 1497 00:59:37,740 --> 00:59:35,410 good information from the bad 1498 00:59:39,599 --> 00:59:37,750 information and that's something that we 1499 00:59:42,660 --> 00:59:39,609 really pride ourselves at the debunkers 1500 00:59:44,490 --> 00:59:42,670 blog like we really tried myself John 1501 00:59:47,700 --> 00:59:44,500 Michael and the other posters who were 1502 00:59:49,260 --> 00:59:47,710 there we really tried to look at 1503 00:59:50,730 --> 00:59:49,270 everything as objectively as we 1504 00:59:53,220 --> 00:59:50,740 and do the most responsible research 1505 00:59:55,790 --> 00:59:53,230 that we could and I'm and I'm happy with 1506 00:59:58,980 --> 00:59:55,800 the work I did you know I am happy with 1507 01:00:03,120 --> 00:59:58,990 at least what I was able to do you know 1508 01:00:05,970 --> 01:00:03,130 I wish I had the you know the funds and 1509 01:00:07,710 --> 01:00:05,980 the the team that something like a 9/11 1510 01:00:10,410 --> 01:00:07,720 truth has I'd be doing things 1511 01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:10,420 differently if I did but I don't have 1512 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:12,490 that but just based on what I had access 1513 01:00:18,780 --> 01:00:14,850 to I was happy with the work that I did 1514 01:00:21,780 --> 01:00:18,790 yeah so what kind of stuff are you doing 1515 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:21,790 now that what was we was taken the place 1516 01:00:28,530 --> 01:00:26,050 of 9/11 activism for you um honestly 1517 01:00:31,350 --> 01:00:28,540 nowadays I'm just kind of trying to live 1518 01:00:33,900 --> 01:00:31,360 a normal life as much as I can um you 1519 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:33,910 know just working I'm working on a book 1520 01:00:41,730 --> 01:00:38,170 currently interesting book on religion 1521 01:00:43,470 --> 01:00:41,740 I'm kind of a you know I'm a religious 1522 01:00:45,570 --> 01:00:43,480 skeptic so I like to look into stuff 1523 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:45,580 like that nowadays so that's kind of a 1524 01:00:52,290 --> 01:00:48,370 project I'm focusing on now that I have 1525 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:52,300 more time to focus on but yeah I would 1526 01:00:57,810 --> 01:00:55,930 say that not having 9/11 in my life 1527 01:00:59,430 --> 01:00:57,820 anymore at least not you know 1528 01:01:01,770 --> 01:00:59,440 investigating it and researching it to 1529 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:01,780 the extent that I did it hasn't 1530 01:01:06,750 --> 01:01:04,210 negatively impacted me at all like I'm 1531 01:01:10,350 --> 01:01:06,760 just trying to live a normal life for 1532 01:01:14,310 --> 01:01:10,360 the most part I don't feel this you know 1533 01:01:15,750 --> 01:01:14,320 need to go back to it because I'll say 1534 01:01:17,730 --> 01:01:15,760 that the movement is not gonna stand to 1535 01:01:19,140 --> 01:01:17,740 fall based on me there's so many people 1536 01:01:22,110 --> 01:01:19,150 in it that it's not gonna make a 1537 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:22,120 difference if I'm in it or not I'd like 1538 01:01:25,950 --> 01:01:24,490 to contribute if I can but I think I've 1539 01:01:28,380 --> 01:01:25,960 pretty much done what I can do at this 1540 01:01:31,050 --> 01:01:28,390 point there's not much more I can do 1541 01:01:33,660 --> 01:01:31,060 that's gonna you know lead us into a new 1542 01:01:37,590 --> 01:01:33,670 investigation right all right well 1543 01:01:39,750 --> 01:01:37,600 closing out like if someone was you know 1544 01:01:41,940 --> 01:01:39,760 a young person was interested in 9/11 1545 01:01:46,020 --> 01:01:41,950 now would you give them any advice or 1546 01:01:47,940 --> 01:01:46,030 point them in a specific direction a 1547 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:47,950 young person as far as like somebody 1548 01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:50,610 maybe like my age when I got involved in 1549 01:01:59,040 --> 01:01:56,410 1616 yeah um I would say if that's 1550 01:02:02,020 --> 01:01:59,050 something that you want to do by all 1551 01:02:04,599 --> 01:02:02,030 means like I'm not gonna tell you 1552 01:02:07,330 --> 01:02:04,609 patter on your life what to do I would 1553 01:02:10,180 --> 01:02:07,340 recommend not getting involved in that 1554 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:10,190 at least at this stage only because 1555 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:11,690 there are so many other issues that we 1556 01:02:16,420 --> 01:02:13,210 have to deal with in the world right now 1557 01:02:19,390 --> 01:02:16,430 and I don't think it's like I said it's 1558 01:02:21,099 --> 01:02:19,400 not going to be up to I think the common 1559 01:02:22,750 --> 01:02:21,109 person to get the new investigation I 1560 01:02:25,540 --> 01:02:22,760 think we can certainly help you know 1561 01:02:27,220 --> 01:02:25,550 like any person matter who you are the 1562 01:02:30,099 --> 01:02:27,230 the common person can make a difference 1563 01:02:31,690 --> 01:02:30,109 in the world absolutely but you know 1564 01:02:34,690 --> 01:02:31,700 there's obviously people who have access 1565 01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:34,700 to more material and has more 1566 01:02:38,470 --> 01:02:36,530 capabilities than the average person 1567 01:02:40,420 --> 01:02:38,480 like the bigger groups in the truth 1568 01:02:42,970 --> 01:02:40,430 movement and it's really gonna be up to 1569 01:02:44,650 --> 01:02:42,980 them and if you see them and you see 1570 01:02:46,450 --> 01:02:44,660 that they're making the kind of progress 1571 01:02:48,609 --> 01:02:46,460 that you think they should be making and 1572 01:02:50,650 --> 01:02:48,619 you want to get involved by all means if 1573 01:02:52,810 --> 01:02:50,660 you're like me and you look at them and 1574 01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:52,820 think they're not really doing the work 1575 01:02:57,099 --> 01:02:54,170 they should be doing and you think it's 1576 01:02:59,020 --> 01:02:57,109 a lost cause then I'd say you know focus 1577 01:03:02,349 --> 01:02:59,030 on other things try new what you can in 1578 01:03:05,710 --> 01:03:02,359 the world but try to enjoy your life too 1579 01:03:08,020 --> 01:03:05,720 the only real regret I take away from it 1580 01:03:10,930 --> 01:03:08,030 all is just knowing we won't get a new 1581 01:03:13,750 --> 01:03:10,940 investigation that saddens me immensely 1582 01:03:15,990 --> 01:03:13,760 just thinking about all the people who 1583 01:03:19,599 --> 01:03:16,000 died that day and all the people who 1584 01:03:21,010 --> 01:03:19,609 lost loved ones that day you know that's 1585 01:03:22,540 --> 01:03:21,020 been the biggest thing for me the whole 1586 01:03:26,230 --> 01:03:22,550 reason that I wanted to look into this 1587 01:03:28,780 --> 01:03:26,240 was seeing how many problems there were 1588 01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:28,790 and how badly this affected the people 1589 01:03:33,430 --> 01:03:31,250 who were you know most affected by that 1590 01:03:35,829 --> 01:03:33,440 day the family members people who lost 1591 01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:35,839 loved ones that day it saddens me 1592 01:03:39,550 --> 01:03:37,250 immensely that they're not going to get 1593 01:03:41,589 --> 01:03:39,560 closure to this and then that's the big 1594 01:03:43,210 --> 01:03:41,599 server and I take away from it I wish 1595 01:03:45,339 --> 01:03:43,220 you know those people could get the 1596 01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:45,349 justice they want to see it just seems 1597 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:46,130 like we're not gonna get that 1598 01:03:53,349 --> 01:03:49,730 unfortunately yeah yeah I see you're uh 1599 01:03:54,940 --> 01:03:53,359 you do post things about the First 1600 01:03:59,680 --> 01:03:54,950 Responder things like the Jon Stewart's 1601 01:04:01,930 --> 01:03:59,690 outlet is great you know it's very very 1602 01:04:03,579 --> 01:04:01,940 real issue regardless of what your 1603 01:04:05,140 --> 01:04:03,589 beliefs are about what happened that day 1604 01:04:08,290 --> 01:04:05,150 you know obviously those people were 1605 01:04:13,150 --> 01:04:08,300 hurt and they deserve to be taken care 1606 01:04:14,779 --> 01:04:13,160 of which is absolutely all right you got 1607 01:04:20,209 --> 01:04:14,789 anything else you answered 1608 01:04:22,669 --> 01:04:20,219 about our um nothing uh nothing to plug 1609 01:04:26,390 --> 01:04:22,679 I'll say like I said before if people 1610 01:04:28,909 --> 01:04:26,400 want to look at my past writings on 9/11 1611 01:04:33,319 --> 01:04:28,919 they can go to my old blog that's a Adam 1612 01:04:37,219 --> 01:04:33,329 Taylor for two numbers or to dot blog 1613 01:04:39,349 --> 01:04:37,229 spot.com I've got in the sidebars all my 1614 01:04:42,799 --> 01:04:39,359 writings about 9/11 and some other 1615 01:04:44,900 --> 01:04:42,809 interviews I've done about 9/11 if you 1616 01:04:46,999 --> 01:04:44,910 want to go look if you're so inclined 1617 01:04:50,150 --> 01:04:47,009 by all means like I said I don't post 1618 01:04:51,709 --> 01:04:50,160 there anymore but yeah for the most part 1619 01:04:55,189 --> 01:04:51,719 I could still about for what I have on 1620 01:04:57,949 --> 01:04:55,199 that site it's just not my primary 1621 01:05:00,169 --> 01:04:57,959 interest nowadays you know it's try to 1622 01:05:02,569 --> 01:05:00,179 live a normal life and enjoy it as much 1623 01:05:03,650 --> 01:05:02,579 as they can right well well thank you 1624 01:05:05,449 --> 01:05:03,660 very much this has been really 1625 01:05:08,150 --> 01:05:05,459 interesting it was a great great 1626 01:05:09,259 --> 01:05:08,160 discussion and I think your story is 1627 01:05:12,650 --> 01:05:09,269 very interesting and yeah we obviously 1628 01:05:15,140 --> 01:05:12,660 we disagree on quite a variety of things 1629 01:05:17,809 --> 01:05:15,150 I'm sure but yeah I think we're less 1630 01:05:21,499 --> 01:05:17,819 every day I think we also yeah it is 1631 01:05:23,959 --> 01:05:21,509 fine to disagree if you do it in a in an 1632 01:05:28,759 --> 01:05:23,969 honest way and I think we both want 1633 01:05:31,370 --> 01:05:28,769 we've over the goal of removing the 1634 01:05:33,439 --> 01:05:31,380 things that are definitely false we just 1635 01:05:35,179 --> 01:05:33,449 kind of disagree on where we draw the 1636 01:05:41,630 --> 01:05:35,189 line we both want to get rid of those no 1637 01:05:41,989 --> 01:05:41,640 planers yes we we draw the line on other 1638 01:05:44,830 --> 01:05:41,999 matters
