Tom,

It is interesting to note that you consider yourself an EXPERT on everything.
Actually, I think you are just very OPINIONATED, which I really don't mind, because I'm opinionated myself.
However, you should delegate your expertise to things you know about, like rocket science and your right wing, fanatical, elitist theories.

You wrote:
"Uri Dowbenko has enough conspiracy info...To go through it all would be a career in itself."

Well, Uri's been at it for YEARS, and is well-respected as an investigative journalist. I have read his articles published in international magazines and have followed his stories. He knows what he's talking about.

>"Many people who publish bullshit succeed by the sheer volume of their output. Hundreds of names, places, and occurrences pour forth, with references usually only to OTHER bullshit sites."

Oh yeah, there are links to follow, but you should try and discredit the "hundreds of names, places, etc...." because YOU CAN'T.
Besides, what would you have in common with an investigative journalist? How do you know what he's written in the past?
Certainly, there's a lot of more recent articles available on various sites.

>For fun, I once researched a single BS proposition--that there was an IBM executive who wrote a book explaining that aliens were the source of our electronic technology. I proved that the entire thing, down to the magazine the interview was ostensibly published in, was fake from top to bottom. However, this took me a whole afternoon.

Good for you. So you checked out one story, and it was misleading. If you'd quit frothing all over the place about any and all conspiracies, and start taking notes, you MIGHT learn something.
However, this takes YEARS of paying attention.

>"Here's a little example of Uri's work (again, in brainnumbing, excruciating detail) to give you an idea of how his mind works.

I read the link and think the subject of CIA mind- controlled multiples is a worthy subject indeed, especially if you've ever met one, or had the misfortune of one actually being involved in your life.
Cathy O'Brien's book is an eye-opener, and the Paul Bonacci case from Franklin, Nebraska is very WELL DOCUMENTED, and the legal papers are available for all those who care to investigate.
It's not for the squeamish I might add as you will become nauseous....it's like watching real movies of the internment camps and gas chambers in Nazi Germany.
Not everything is palatable to us. Not death or war. But there are groups who LIVE on this and have a steady diet of this, it's just their religion.
No different from the Mayan priests of yesterday and their blood sacrifices. I could give you a link to follow Gunderson's findings as the head of the FBI/LA Division on the Bonacci case, but you'd wretch so bad, it would take you days (if not weeks) to wrap your little brain around it.

>You can see what I mean about refuting this...it would take weeks to dissect something this extensive,"

You can't refute it. You can only educate yourself about it.

>" although many statement here are ridiculous on their face, which at least helps."

Helps what? To make YOU feel better?

>"I have never been able to figure out why there are all these guys running around screaming about the government controlling people's minds. Wouldn't they be top of the list? "

A lot of those complaining have been de-programmed. Obviously, you are poorly read on the MKULTRA project and other mind control experiments that have been conducted since the 50's here in the US under the auspices of CIA funding.
I hate to blow a hole in your theory, but the evidence is out there and plenty of lawsuits have been brought against the perpetrators with a lot of cash being given as settlement to the victims.

If you can find a copy of the Control of Candy Jones, read it. And that's just one of the many, many stories.
