Taurus, I looked at the link you provided, but this is after all, a doco aired by CBC,and seems to be devoted to painting the Saudi's as the bad guys.

The claims that the US intelligence turned a blind eye to the Saudi's activities because they have a 'relationship' with them is questionable.

The US gathers intelligence from everywhere, included supposed allied countries. To say that they just didn't believe that the Saudi's were up to no good seems simplistic to me.

The documentary doesn't question the basic physics of the whole debacle, which was what interested me. The question of the planes software, the cell phone calls, the disappearing plane, the collapsing towers, the ability of a amateur Cessna pilot to fly a huge jet accurately to a target.[If you were a newly licensed driver, does that mean you could get into a eighteen wheeler, drive it across town and parallel park it?]
Is it physically possible for things to have gone down as we are told? More and more, it seems it is not.

Twan, whereabouts did your friends go for their bike ride? North or South Island? Did they camp out? Its awesome for camping here, cause there's no beasties like bears, wildcats or wolves to get ya. No snakes or lizards and only one poisonous spider. Only inquisitive parrots to steal your tucker.
Hopefully they missed the shit weather we're getting at the moment ~ cyclones spinning off of Australia. Ended the nice long, fine, dry spell we've had since Christmas.

Maybe one day you and the missus [and the sprogg]will make it out here. Then you'll have to call in and see us.
