I refuse to admit that there's enough of them out there to fill a farking conference...

On the other hand, who wants to dress up in a black suit and dark glasses and sit in the back impassively scowling??

[farrisjs]

I would love to experience one of these type of conferences, the conference I usally go to are interested in providing fact and rational ideas. It would be great to take a vacation from reality for a day.

[brodski]

On the other hand, who wants to dress up in a black suit and dark glasses and sit in the back impassively scowling?? ah, the fun you can have with a convention center full of paranoid lunatics...

[azazal]

Am I theonly one thinking it would be fun to sit outside in a nice white van, taking pictures :D

[kookbreaker]

Me and a friend amused ourselves a couple of Saturday mornings by dressing up in dark blue suits, wearing sunglasses, and going into 30th street station where the '2600 club' members would meet and pretend to be hots*** hackers and such. We'd just sit, pretending to be pretending to wait for a train. Sunglasses on, ocassionally glancing in their direction.

We got some odd reactions. Nothing wacky, but we got bored with it anyway.

Fun at a CT-convention:

1: Spread a rumour that there's a group of secret guvernment agents there to keep an eye on things.
2: Once the participants starts getting the 'noia, spread a rumour that a visitor mysteriously "disappeared" or "fell ill" after eating at the buffet at the same time as a "witness" saw a MIB at the buffet.
3: Grab a bag of popcorn, sit back and enjoy the show.

I refuse to admit that there's enough of them out there to fill a farking conference...Sorry, it's evidently not a goof.

At least, not in the sense I think you mean.

One of the speakers, Bill Marr, mentioned it on Coast To Coast last night.

He also mentioned that he would attending the...






...wait for it...






9/11 Truth Convention (http://www.911revealingthetruth.org/)!!!

I bet that the organizers check the convention hall for explosive demolition charges.

Am I theonly one thinking it would be fun to sit outside in a nice white van, taking pictures :D

Let's all chip in and hire a black helicopter to make frequent flyovers.

[Stellafane]

A 9/11 Truth Convention, huh? Now that would offer some very hard-core goof possibilities. For instance, one could attend on a press pass -- representing National Geographic or Popular Mechanics...

[gfunkusarelius]

cripes, doesnt their ability to have such a convention erode the credibility of their theories???

[Gravy]

"Where Other Conferences End, Conspiracy Con Begins..."

You mean with collecting the garbage?

No with distributing the garbage.

[Desktop Icon]

I quite liked seeing just who is in charge of this thing:

Brian William Hall ™
Executive Producer
CONSPIRACY CON

I wish *I* had a ™ after my name... maybe then people would take me seriously.

[Admiral]

I WISH I lived on the West Coast- I would definitely be there in a black suit with a camera and notepad.

Is anyone seriously thinking about pulling something like that?

Wow...more nuts than a truckload of Jiff extra-crunchy! Dig this guy:
Stewart Swerdlow
Bio & Lecture

A gifted medical intuitive, Stewart Swerdlow is a clairvoyant who sees auric fields and personal archetypes, and reads DNA sequences and mind-patterns.

His great-uncle, Yakov Sverdlov, was the first president of the Soviet Union. His grandfather helped form the Communist Party in the United States in the 1930's. To ensure that his loyalties stayed with the U.S. government, Stewart was "recruited" for specific government mind-control experiments which enhanced his natural abilities.

Stewart was part of the Montauk Project, and was written about under the alias of “Stan Campbell” in the Montauk book series published by Sky Books.

Stewart, a linguist who speaks several languages, now spends his time teaching others to access the "unused" 90% portion of the brain, which is actually in constant communication with the Mind of God, receiving information in the Language of Hyperspace, an inter-universal and interspecies language consisting of color, tone, and archetype.

ahhhh the old "90% of the brain" chestnut again...only instead of "not using" it it's now an always on T1 connection with God the main-frame!

Hey Robert! Stopping Kaz was pretty easy seeing as she was attempting to dupe fairly intelligent, and honest people. How does one stop a grifter who is plying his trade amongst sheep who dearly wish to be sheared???

As always....I'm amazed!!!

[Kochanski]

Oooo ooo ooo, I see a way to drive them nuts. If we can find enough students we can flood them with skepticism. ALL CHILDREN under 17 are FREE :D

Do we have any high school teachers in the area on this board? Any parents in the area who can get kids with friends to attend? If so they could hand out flyers about the JREF, Skeptics Society and other cool things to people at the con.

[bob_kark]

Its wierd, I seem to remember Controlled Demolition having a demonstration at the same building that day. You wouldn't think they would double book them do you?

Project Montauk is fiction.

Conspiracy Con of 2006?

Definately Dylan Avery.

Quite.


They really are as confused as we think. They hate being called 'conspiracy theorists' and they think the 'official' account is conning us.

"Conspiracy Con" - come and be conned by conspiracy theorists! Two-day pass plus banquet - $179.00.

I just had a look at the site. Is the above idea equal to child abuse? I query the state of mind of some of the speakers.

[Shrinker]

Now I wonder who the attendees would blame if the whole thing suddnely got called off and the organizers disappeared without trace (with the money). Gives me an idea for next year ... ;-)

You don't suppose he knows what "un con" is, by any chance ? ;)

[Zep]

I would imagine the best "con" of the "ConCon" would be to spread the rumour to potential attendees that the conference itself is a "con", organised by "the man" to see who "the enemy" really are. Of course, they will be checking credit-card receipts (offline, of course), and checking money for prints and DNA later.

The second part would be to add to the confusion for the die-hard attendees by suggesting that some of the attendees are actually "spies" for the "evil gubmint", but they are deep under cover - sleepers - so it will be difficult to detect them from any other attendees.

Then...

1) See how many people turn up; and
2) See how many of them end up accusing each other of "stuff".

[Doubt]

On the other hand, who wants to dress up in a black suit and dark glasses and sit in the back impassively scowling??

You also have to talk into your sleve every now and then.

[Kochanski]

It is not child abuse, it is the opportunity for teens who have good critical thinking skills to spread the concept to others. They don't actually have to go LISTEN to the speakers, just hand out flyers in the open areas to all the CTs they can find.

Of course, if they want to go hear some speakers and pose good questions and debate with the CTers and do some additional disruption that is entirely up to them ;)

[Rolfe]

The 1987 World Science Fiction Convention (http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/susan/sf/cons/w87.htm) (Worldcon) in Brighton was called "Conspiracy". I seem to remember the organisers having a bit of hassle and wishing they'd picked a different name. I think people coming from Russia and around there were requested just to refer to the "45th World Science Fiction Convention" and forget the name.

It wasn't the best con I've ever been to, but I did get called "cheesecake" by Julian May. Oh yes, and the Brighton Metropole didn't change my towels for five nights even though (after the Masquerade) they were filthy, and this must be some new definition of bedmaking I was previously unaware of, and when the waitress refused to let a friend (also staying at the hotel) join me at my breakfast table because she was too busy to serve anyone else, the manager was called.

NOPE!!!!

[Anders W. Bonde]

I suppose one could make a fair nickel at the con-con by selling tinfoil hats...

Rolfe,

The Brighton hotel manager wouldn't be related to B. Fawlty, would he?

[Rolfe]

Dunno, but when I had tea at the same hotel a couple of years later (in connection with a biochemistry conference) I came down with food poisoning, almost certainly related to a certain turkey sandwich....
