4. Because...
I obviously agree with Spooped, and would also add that there ARE new facts and considerations being dicussed here. In the last week Paul Thompson has posted many new entries for his timeline, and in the last month since I got into this, my understanding has developed. I know that you've been in here for some time. Can you honestly say that no progress toward greater understanding has occurred? If nothing else, new members are learning from the old.

You seem to feign ignorance about the many reasons why intelligence agencies would want to monitor this site. They may want to keep tabs on those who posess certain beliefs. They many want to track the development of certain hypotheses. They many want to track the exposer of different facts. They many want to determine who is most committed to education. They may be monitoring discussion to determine if our speculation is likely to violate national security. More than likely, if they are monitoring this forum, they hope to determine who is taking any action. Anyone who questions the 'official' version is a dissident in certain ways. Why would they pass up the opportunity to examine our viewpoints and plans in such a confined space. We virutally hand it to them on a platter. But hey, they can have it. I'm not hiding anymore. - R.C.

P.S. You have revealed yourself in the past to be one who does not accept many of the hypotheses discussed here, so it follows that you would find no development. And since we're on the subject, and you so willingly reveal your attitude, why are you here at all? What do you get out of this? I would really like to know why you do this, because in all honesty, it appears that you simply derive pleasure from playing devil's advocate. While I will readily state that this role is valuable to us, being as that there are many in here who have not vetted their suppositions very well, I haven't seen you take a very educational approach. Instead you seem to often make short smarmy comments meant to goad a response. Help me understand why you keep coming back.
