Another one doing the rounds right now is the February 22 Christchurch earthquake was man made by the NZ government to plunge the country further into debt

Holy crap, I didn't hear that before! John Key is a slimey bastard but I don't think he was able to create an earthquake. Some people think there will be more earthquakes due to the drilling near NZ shore, yet Key doesn't give a ****.

Sounds like Numenor will be consumed by the ocean. I think it's time to beg Manwë's forgiveness.

Nah with any luck they'll strike the black stuff everyone's hoping for

I think my favorite conspiracy theories to study are the JFK and the 9/11 ones. I'm not saying I am a believer in either, just enjoy studying different perspectives people have on these issues.

The moon Landings are the only ones that rile me up hence the links to debunking them...I am not going to be dragged into a debate on Conspiracy theories

I see everyone has missed the obvious.

There is no such thing as electricity generation.

The electricity we all use is the same electricity as was first generated. It is never 'used up' and it never 'goes to earth'.

Thats what the electricity generating companies tell us. We are being charged by them for generating something they don't generate anymore.

The electricity I am using to power my cooker is the same electricity probably that the guy in the next town is using to drive his next door neighbour mad with his Van Morrison albums.
