According to a 1999 Gallup </font>poll, about 6 percent of the population of the United States has doubts that the Apollo astronauts walked on the Moon. (Five percent had no opinion, while 89 percent believed the landings took place.)</font>


Translation:  6 percent of the population of the United States are complete idiots.  Five percent can't think, and 89 percent have reasonable intelligence.  </font>


This conclusion applies to all those other polls as well.</font>


400,000 people worked on the moon landing.  Lest we forget Occam's Razor, to subscribe to conspiracy theories is to subscribe to lunacy.  Occam's Razor states that one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.  </font>


So instead of the simple explanation that we did in fact land on the moon, conspiracy theorists breack with Occam and come up with this nonsense:  http://www.lycos.com/info/apollo-moon-landing-hoax-accusations--united-states.html</font>


The very same can be said about 911 conspiracy theorists.  They are out on a broken limb.  They have to weave a tangled web of impossibilities in order to make their theory work.  </font>


These people, when faced with direct evidence (such as plane parts at the Pentagon, witnesses testifying that it was a plane and was seen etc) will continue to spin and deny.  They won't be satisified until they can convince everyone they are right.  Even in the face of tons of evidence to the contrary.  Nuts.</font>
