Not enough Woo to go round?

First thread here and only second post. My observation from these threads is that the 9/11 Troothers are the only game in town on the CT front, and that old favourites like Roswell and the JFK Assasination have faded into the background - there being only so much Woo-ness available in the world today. Have the same fraudsters from the Roswell Conspiracy Cottage Industry moved into the 9/11 movement or have they quietly gone out of business?

Oh, they've moved on to the new flavor of the month. Jim Fetzer was a big deal in JFK conspiranoia before he switched to 9/11. They tend to go where the spotlight is shining. Kind of the opposite of roaches, at least in that regard.

Welcome to the forum.

its an internet thing, the 9/11 crowd draws in high school and college age kids, who also live on the internet

jfk/roswell tends to be more middle aged single men (the 9/11 crowd 30 years from now) so they arent as prevalent on the net
