Our local gang of idiots (http://www.edmonton911truth.com/CIEVENT.html) has booked none other than Kevin "The Holocaust is a myth" (http://forums.randi.org/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=64) Barret to come promote 9/11 quackery at the main branch of the Edmonton Public Library the weekend of the 7th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

I've already sent a note to the Edmonton Jewish Federation (http://www.jewishedmonton.org/index.aspx) and tomorrow I intend to call the EPL's booking office to ask what thier policy is on having hate groups use our [the people of Edmonton's] facilities.

If none of this has any effect, I am considering subjecting Barret to the same treatment he seems to feel is ok for him to inflict on others excersising their right of free speech. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=jCh4eB8aKbY)

Any fellow Edmontonians who want to join in on this are more than welcome. :D

Similarly, here in Ottawa, David Ray Griffin is giving a talk in August, as discussed here. (http://www.ottawaskeptics.org/forum?func=view&id=791&catid=2)

As a general question, what's the feeling on attending these sorts of events? From the size of the Ottawa truthers group, I expect that the Ottawa Skeptics would be able to dominate the audience if we wanted to, as I don't think too many normal people would attend this lecture, but none of us want to give them that much money.

I'm thinking about showing up with some handouts, and seeing if any normal people show up. I probably wouldn't even bother with talking to the truthers.

Yes, because it's so important for us to finally get the word out that the terrorists did it. No one has ever heard that before, of course.

We don't give the access to people who think the holocaust didn't happen or the moon landings were fake, so why 9/11?

The interesting thing is you get weird looks trying to prove the obvious.

So you agree then, with Kevin Barrett that the jews faked the Holocaust and the jews are behind the majority of mid-east terror attacks?

I'm going to be visiting Banff, but not till October. I'll be too late for the party.

BTW, what's up with the two f's in Banff? Do you pronounce them both? Ban-ff-ff?
