Characteristics of Conspiracy Theories

[Gawdzilla]

I've been dealing with the Pearl Harbor conspiracy theorists since 1965, when a friend and neighbor gave me all forty volumes of the Congressional Investigation into the Pearl Harbor Attack and asked me to "find the smoking gun". Three years later I had to tell him I couldn't find one. This neighbor later confided to me that he was a veteran. In fact he'd served with George Washington at Valley forge.
