There are a lot of people who have questions they think deserve real answers. That doesn't mean that everyone who has a question is convinced the "government" (presumably meaning the Army Corps of Engineers or something) planned a controlled demolition of the buildings. But those who are afraid of questions (and answers) seem very quick to use that same tired old straw man to paint all inquisitive people as quacks.

Why do you use a handle of "logical"? I would have thought a person who is truly logical would have questions and demand reasonable answers.
