The topic of conspiracies has become more prevalent in the American psyche and I've not found a free compilation or overview of classic references. I don't consider myself an expert in this field, just a hardworking and curious layman, and I would appreciate any insight that others can offer. I know that a FAQ is a very iterative process in which early versions are only marginal and incomplete, whereas later versions can become extremely comprehensive with the help of reader input. With your help, I can really improve the quality of this document. I am committing to keeping it free for unlimited distribution at all times. If you know some good references for any of these sections, in the interest of educating humanity, please send them to me. Note: I am not going to try to collect every reference that exists. In particular I prefer to collect references to other authoritative collections that contain references themselves. I intend to keep a short list of web sites in this FAQ, which I don't intend to be exhaustive either, but which points to the premier sites. If you have one of the most comprehensive sites on the net, I would like to hear about your pointer, however, if you are working with subtopics, please submit your URL to the site maintainers of the more "master" sites. I will generally not attempt to resolve the truth or falsity of various issues, but simply remark on the contents of "conspiracy theory literature" or CTL and let the reader
