Easy-to-do, I guess, but you're right... Nazis and liberals are pretty wildly different. There were tenets of the Nazi party dealing with economics that might have a vague connection (socialism comes to mind, but it was a pretty hamfisted implementation), but that's about it. I've never known a liberal (of any stripe) willing to round up, torture, maim, rape and kill Jews. I think some people confuse Nazism with facism.

YOUR idea of Netscape it to parrot FAUX news and the radical conservative right and the White House? Whatsamatter, the truth getting too close for comfort for you? If you in fact want to preserve freedom of speech,you will retract your absurd comments. Oh, then I guess YOUR idea of Netscape is not one of the 1st amendment or free speech?

Wow, I didn't know a guy like you existed. A real person behind a real web page. I'm not literate in computers, my IT guy set netscape as my home page. I like it fine, BUT. When I click on a story or headline, like this blog deal, it opens the page and a big directory opens on the left and I have to figure out how to get rid of it to read the story. Can you fix that? BTW, they are BATS (what ever that is) AND Bush is just doing what he thinks is right but has lost support so he can't get it finished. And a change in congress was a good thing, I think. C.K.

Add to that about 100 million folks who believe the Israelis did it (basically because their politicians blame everything in Israel), and the odds of rational discussion are pretty small. Scary.

As to everything else you have replied, well said. I couldn't agree with you more. There are so many issues in the world today that are happening now even as we speak. It is time we address, as well as, debate these issues quickly to avoid other tragedies that could occur if we are not careful.

I *do* personally think that our government manipulated the aftermath of 9-11 to justify their agenda in Iraq and the current war-machine that the Bush administration has become. I think there are enough very obvious problems in the world without people resorting to crazy 9-11 conspiracy theories where they obsess over minutia. Such babbling, imho, gets in the way of any possibility of actually addressing the real problems with which we are faced. JKLivin, I hear you.

As for the comments on 9/11 conspiracy, I agree that there are many debates to be had that will ultimately lead to nowhere and the subject itself is definitely played out. However, the us government during this bush administration has been one of the most corrupt governments ever and to completely relieve them of any guilt from this tragedy is also ludacris. To be able to say that it was not a conspiracy, end of story. This is also a ludacris statement. I agree that people should not spend there days spamming the internet with theories over and over as has been done. You can surely not rule out a conspiracy, and if you are trying to say that people can't think that way, that would be a huge blow to the integrity of netscape. If you don't wish for people to express there opinions, than don't allow comments to be made to the articles that netscape posts. Just because in your opinion there is no conspiracy doesn't make you right, unless you are trying to change your name to god, who as far as i'm concerned, is the only one who knows and sees all.

Here's a PROVEN FACT for you people. Take a piece of household steel wool. Steel wool is made from a very hard form of pure iron steel. Now take a simple 9 volt battery such as a home smoke alarm would use. Touch the steel wool to the 9 volt battery terminals. Watch what happens to this hard iron steel wool. It burns up like a pile of dry weeds! Or just briefly touch a match to the steel wool. Again the steel wool will simple catch fire and burn up! This is the same thing with the steel supports in the twin towers. There was enough heat in the tower fire to simply burn and collapse the steel structures. So just shut up about this. Do the little science project I have laid out here for you. Any half wit can see the FACTS! Steel can easily catch fire and burn! That's a FACT and this little science project should shut all you dimwits up once and for all!
