Photographic evidence of the GRCT (grassroots rational conspiracy theory)
Edited on Sat Jan-13-07 09:59 AM by LoZoccolo
OTC - official conspiracy theory
CTC - commercial conspiracy theory (sold by Alex Jones and all others who profit from alternatives to the OTC)

This is evidence that should lend every OTCer and CTCer silent, and it's widely available on the Internet.

Take a look at this picture of an alarm clock that someone posted on the Internet, designed to look like an exact replica of a time bomb:

http://www.marc-spoor.de/projects/bomb.html

Now look at this potato clock, and educational toy marketed at children (so easy a child can understand the principle):

http://www.shop.com/op/~Potato_Power_The_Clock_Idea_Of_The_Year-prod-9299616-14237644

We can see now, that it isn't necessary to try to prove that whatever dastardly conspirators were behind the 9/11 massacre, that they had to instrument the building with explosives to perform the clear controlled demolition witnessed by the firefighters. If you need to review the adjoining similarity facts:

- three spiraled wires
- one red wire
- one yellow wire
- one blue wire
- digital display
- potatoes as a substitute for sticks of dynamite

The CTCs have a built in "incredulous" portion that lets people off the hook when they want to fall back on the OTC: this idea that the buildings were planted with explosives. The GRCT does not have this problem because we can see that it is easy to do with a potato.

Sources cited:

READ UP on all sources before you argue. I will now answer questions about the sources, but I will not answer questions from people who have not read EVERY link I post.

You say that any expert in homemade explosives knows about the destructive power of a potato. Are you a homemade explosives expert?

Unless you could making a volcano out of vinegar and baking soda, I really don't know anything about explosives, homemade or otherwise. But that's my point and lends credence to my argument: if a child knows how to build this potato contraption as an educational toy, it's obvious to anyone who would know about explosives, including the bastards who set up the WTC for 9/11.

2. Don't forget to add the sodium chlorate.
(Potassium chlorate for those with low sodium restrictions.)

Or did you leave that information out on purpose? Have I revealed more than I should have? Um.. ah..

(...looks around to see if anyone noticed, then runs away...)

3. What?
The potato clock does not have any of that.

4. Oh, I thought you were building a potato bomb.
That's why I figured that you would need an oxidizer. I guess a clock doesn't really require an oxidizer.

Although for a bomb, instead of using potatoes, a simple carbohydrate would be more effective. Sucrose (table sugar) would probably work.

5. Um, I am not building a bomb, nor do I ever plan to.

I am demonstrating that it would have been easy for BushCo to do so, using a potato. Please try to pay attention.

6. We are trying to pay attention. Please open up the tin foil and bust that spud open.
HamdenRice, on his thread not to be sullied with my foul postings, has already alluded to your posts here being an "OCT" distraction. She's saying that you are posting this so that we can ridicule you and CTs in general, and she's suggesting you don't really believe this potato stuff.

I'm inclined to believe her. I can't see how you could seriously be proposing this. If this is satire, you have a poker face for the ages. You must host karaoke.

However, if you really believe this potato stuff, please explain exactly how you think this was accomplished. Don't tease us with the details - I cain't hardly stand the anticipation of hearing your theory in full.

8. Once again.

- three spiraled wires
- one red wire
- one yellow wire
- one blue wire
- digital display
- potatoes as a substitute for sticks of dynamite

I am beginning to think that there are people who want to believe the OCT, and those who look objectively at the evidence. Be sure to check out the links for your answer.

9. Um... yeah... okay... gotcha. (Wink, wink .)
I guess I somehow failed to see how making a battery with a couple of potatoes demonstrates anything related to making bombs. I hereby retract my suggestion that you would actually need anything more than two potatoes, two pairs of electrodes made from different metals, a few wires, and a low voltage battery operated clock.

My apologies. Obviously I wasn't paying attention during improvised explosives voltaic cell training. (Not that I've ever been to anything like that. Wink, wink.)
