Just a brief note to thank everyone who participated in today's open skypecast discussion on 9-11 and conspiracism. That was seriously one hell of a lot of fun! Moriarty, procrastinate later, Caution and myself defended the skeptical viewpoint (successfully I think) while new NG member Paula credibly (and politely) represented the questions raised by the 9-11 Truth movement. Thanks Paula for giving us four hardcore skeptics some stimulating conversation. In between we had several other representatives of the conspiracist arguments whom I wish had hung on but sadly dropped out of the conversation and even one person who just sat back and listened to the whole sordid affair. All things considered, for our first run at doing this sort of thing, I thought it went really well (even if I wasn't quite sure how to wind it up after an hour and a half) and a good time was had by all. I definitely want to do another skypecast discussion, perhaps in about 1 month.
