Half those people who made comments about it sounding like a missle prollie have never been near a live missle or experience a live missle to be able to distinguish between plane and missle...
another thing... have u ever heard turbines they sound a lot like missles depending on where u are hearing the sound....
And the people who died (who were on the plane) were real people... some of them were my patients...
Conspiracy theorists sometimes think too much... they like to fabricate possibilities out of fragments of ambiguous observations. No hardcore evidence... etc...

The problem people have is not necessarily it was a missile but not a plane either due to lack of debris. Also I find such a
missle expert as yourself wouldn't have made the common misspelling of it almost a half dozen times.
Also on to your crafting things with no hardcore evidence....this whole incident has very little hardcore evidence and most people are buying into the story that was originally presented as venacular. Psychologically this is how many people form their beliefs, even when contrary information is later presented.
i hate peepul hoo are so aynel over spelling in messageboards... it sure helps prove a point ur trying to make by bringing out my spelling errors :roll:
Also, thanks for pointing that out Capt. Obvious ... if u dint notice, my post is in response to why some assumptions (whether psychologically thats how many ppl form their beliefs or not) are just rediculous... conspiracy theorists in general are hypocrits (especially those who criticize the situation we are in now) who employ the same techniques they criticize... they play on fear and the lack of not knowing the truth and use that to spread uneccessary unrest to the rest of the people... ie assumption --> myth
What do we gain out of this? Pointing out how vulnerable or distrusting our government is? For Chrissakes if you (and am not talking about you personally alkemyst <oh wait did i spell that right?> am talking about the people who spread or help spread rumors) feel so strongly about the government and feel so unsafe living here then LEAVE! goto Canada, Australia.... i mean wtf why live here thinking that the government is hiding something and they are against you...
The linked flash takes candid quotes from people and try to use it as "evidence" or "further prove" that the person being quoted (just because they have a title) knows what they are saying and is making a professional statement.... its the likes of Michael Moore doing adlib clips to try to prove his point...
"OMFG I thought we were getting attacked by aliens.. I head missles and explosions... oh wait... its July 4th..."
And no am not a missle expert but neither are those people who are making false assumptions of missles... at least I come close to experiencing the similarity of the sounds first hand.
Cliffs:
1. make ur point, dont waste time pointing out spelling errors
2. whats the overall benefit of spreading rumors or speculations
3. if ppl are so paranoid and bent on the way the government is working... LEAVE!
4. its 4th of July, I hear missles everywhere what shoudl i do?
