I've always loved conspiracies, I used to listen to coast to coast am radio as a kid and then before I graduated highschool I got Internet access. I've tried making that point to so many people. "look don't take it at face value, but look at their sources. A lot of it is crack pot pseudo-science, but there just may be some truth in there."
For clarification I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist. I just love them and find some of them very interesting.
Conspiracies are indeed fascinating to research! :)
