IIRC, Lord Dunsany wrote a story (may have been a radio play) about the human
race being put on trial for its treatment of other species. The judgment was
that humanity could be spared *only* if two species from Earth could be found

rat and the mosquito...

and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
