View Full Version : kook problem

Hi guys,

We are having a little problem with some rabid konspiracy kooks in a
private mailing list.
One of the dead horses they are flogging is the failure of ATC and NORAD
to follow
'normal' procedures in time to intercept the Sept 11 aircraft which to
them means collusion.

Some time back there was a timeline of events about Sept 11 posted which
gave a full
and clear description of the days events and the corresponding responses
at the time,
along with a list of available air assets and a clear description of
what ATC did or didn't
do during hijacks pre Sept 11. (Obviously quite different now)

I'd like to feed this back to the k00k brigade and the list before the
moderator gets sick of them and
just bounces them out as I don't want any of the inhabitants of the list
to get the idea any
part of their rants are correct.

Anyone have a reference or save a copy of these posts?

TIA

The CO

It's not just your mailing list that has such problems: seems every military
NG has attracted more than its share of loony bin refugees since OIF kicked
off last year. A shame they can't be given any attitude adjustments....

Due to the recent demand, manufacturers are having difficulty
keeping Loon Mallets (aka ClueStick) in stock - especially the larger
sizes such as the #1, #0 and #00. In a pinch, farm tools work.

The Substitute Standard for the Loon Mallet is the Clown Hammer, in
3#, 6#, and 12# calibers. The 16# Clown Hammer may be issued as an
Augmentation, but requires special paperwork.

Meanwhile, we here a SATRE are working on a spot-tunable Orbital Mind
Control Laser, capable of burning through the double-layer foil hats
used to defeat the current systems.

A 16 ounce ball peen Dummy Thumper™, available at Home Depot®, will suffice
for most occassions.

Thanks, that will do nicely. The k00ks appear to have shot through
after
being flamed on max burner, but I'll post this to clear up any doubts.
