Pedantry is one of the most popular tools of disinformation. Who are

Well, then, you'd better open your mind. There are people on this list
whose native language is NOT English. If they can't communicate as
clearly as you, do they also speak "cryptic nonsense"?

Had you read the Declaration and Disclaimer at the bottom of the page
you'd understand that rationality and clarity have nothing to do with
conspiracy theory or political information. You're going to find, as
you continue to study conspiracy theory, that many, if not most, of the
conspiracy writers DO NOT write like they have Ph.D.'s in English. That
doesn't make them any less credible. Read for content, not style. You
have to slog through a lot of dross to get to the gold nuggets. This is
where judicious use of the DELETE key comes in handy.

Usually newbies lurk for a while and read the posts and get a feeling
for the threads on the list, and the styles/attitudes of the other list
members, before they go shooting off their mouths. Your post comes off
not only as disrespectful, but as arrogance of the highest degree. The
only weakness shown is your lack of self-control in not taking time to
examine the context of the list before you posted your name-calling
diatribe.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions 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, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
