there is also a collection of professors at major universities who believe Bush and Cheney planned 9/11. I heard them on a talk show a few years ago. They are actively teaching today. So Spence, using employment at a university as a qualification for mainstream doesnt fly with me.

If you read my post you'd know that that wasn't the single basis for my assertion. Nice try...

And Justplugit, it's not about smothering with BS. Rather the product of his work is a good indication as to his state of mind. I see a person focused on teaching and social issues, not a rabbid terrorist.

Sorry Spence, looked like i missed out on some good dicussions by goin fishin.

I would have to read his books or attend one of his courses to find out WHAT he is teaching to come to a conclusion as to his state of mind.
