I don't know if you ever saw the video "Loose Change" which basically said the attacks on the twin towers & Pentagon was a hoax to steal gold, or some such.
Even if their charges were credible, the whole thing was so sloppily done and insulting to my intelligence that I simply could not sit through it. I am not an 8-year old. Please don't talk to me as if I were. If you want me to respect your ideas please don't treat me with such a lack of respect.
If I too quickly lumped Cahn with such people, I apologize. I liked your list posted under "escapedfromthecurse".

aron, wouldn't it have been better just to provide us with something better than to insult the poster with claims of "sloppy scholarship?"
