Krakauer is no doubt working on a book that somehow makes Jones an archetype of Mormons.

Jones left one 9/11 society for another, because the former was too out there for him.

...and yet:

Quote:

While Jones has urged caution in drawing conclusions,[32] his public comments have suggested a considerable degree of certainty about both the controlled demolition of the World Trade Center and the culpability of rogue agents working within the U.S. government.[33] In one interview, he asserted that the attacks were "an 'inside job', puppeteered by the neoconservatives in the White House to justify the occupation of oil-rich Arab countries, inflate military spending, and expand Israel."[34]

It's all relative, I suppose.

It would seem that the nutty professors at Utah could only come up with Cold Fusion that couldn't be duplicated rather than outrageous conspiracy theories.

Wasn't Steven Jones involved somehow in that but got left out of the credit (if we want to call it that)?
