  Yes - Nimmo's response essentially boils down to 'those movements don't 
get it so screw 'em', which is of course no rebuttal at all.  And I've never 
seen even one bit of 'evidence' from the 9/11-truthers that stood up to real 
inspection.  In the meantime, on the newsgroups the conservowacks routinely 
lump the 9/11-truthers in with the antiwar crowd to facilitate ridicule.

  Seems to me the 9/11 truth movement is essentially the left's version of 
Waco.  It'll never really die, it'll just become a distasteful residue that 
destroys credibility on other matters.
