110. Bullshit....
you can obfuscate all you want, but the subject at hand is a POLL. The poll is flawed, in that there is no attempt to ensure a randomly selected, representative sample. No one is saying that you can't draw conclusions from it. The question is what conclusions can reasonably be drawn from it. I have no problem if you say that a significant majority of THOSE THAT CHOSE TO RESPOND do not believe the "official story". The problem comes when you try to generalize the results to the entire 9/11 forum, let alone all of DU. You can surmise all you want, using words like "seems" or "likely" and I have no problem with your take on it, although I might take issue with your surmise. But, when you take a leap and make declarative statements that this "shows that a significant majority of DU does not believe the official story", I cry foul.


Again, I'm waiting for anyne to cite a polling expert in support of this spurious claim.
