    i tend to believe corruption exists from the top down. at least that's how most every hierarchical culture i've ever been a part of worked. it's not like i'm looking for a solution to human nature lol we should just be represented by our best. that's all (and i know that's inherently...

    lol i don't see the analogy. to me, it seems like we have both motive and cause. i guess the cause side is highly open to debate, but it seems like there's definitely at least *some* degree of causation thus negligence. very complex to establish for sure though as a non-act - which is why the...

    does the existence of motive affect the assumption of stupidity? how much explicit motive is capable of outweighing a stupidity defense? no amount?

    leave your ego at the door - there's no need to go generalizing about the intelligence of everyone who questions the official story. did you read my post a page or two back re motive and the potential for a non-act to constitute complicity? what's your take on that it's a simple idea, it...

    i agree with a lot of what you're saying, particularly the notion of credit for a big save and competetition between agencies. especially on a govt payscale and in largely thankless positions, the competition for recognition is as highly coveted as in any other industry, perhaps higher...

    i can't attest to the accuracy, plausibility etc, but it does seem like unusual work was being done, and that it was brought to the 911 commission's attention http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEJmcvTzYfo

    asking people who know more than us for help and then actually getting that help .. really isn't very complicated or surprising. the biggest challenge anyone here faces is probably their own ego in most cases. functional trading rulesets do exist, persist, whatever. it's not even a big deal

    do you respect the general concept of conflict of interest? can/would you acknowledge the existence of one under any circumstances we shouldn't be drawing conclusions about an event with such heavy implications by interpreting the repertoire of a hollywood director, don't you think?

    a truly independent inquiry would go a long way to satisy those with questions and doubts. the bush administration in many ways fueled the doubt with their behavior and decisions regarding the 911 commission. conflict of interest is a universal concept. for example the panel featured a...

    Advice from the experienced

    wow i'm surprised to see this thread. a lot has happened since then (that was my original handle). i agree with you guys, i've been through a decent handful of production systems and none of them have ever survived the long haul in a strict vacuum. over time i've gravitated toward a more...

    I didn't know any of that, thanks. In fact, reading more about Zelikow, it looks like he was a bit of a bush family insider/expert on the reprocussions and effects of a (at that time hypothetical) successful world trade center attack and lo and behold actually predicted 911 and it's...

    the 911 commision was chaired by a bush appointee and only after stiff resistance from the whitehouse. even once bush consented to an investigation at all, he would only testify without an oath, without a formal record of the testimony, and only simultaneously with cheney in lock step. as if...
