CSICOP Hoax Watch

CSICOP has a page dedicated to the various mystical garbage that sprung up around 9-11. The latest update shreds L'Effroyable Imposture, the steaming pile of dung which lately stank up the French bestseller list with its claims that the Pentagon attack was a hoax.

I have a question. If you can go to jail in France for selling Nazi memorabilia, why not for this sort of lying idiocy? Instead, this guy gets rewarded with a bestseller. I'm not saying that he should go to jail -- he should not -- but that the French have a very odd attitude towards acceptable and unacceptable speech.
