Why so much time on paranoid 9/11 conspiracy theories? Our looming energy problem is very real, going down these paths doesn't seem to help much. The problems with 9/11 conspiracy theories are the same as with most conspiracy theories:
a) Occam's razor. The simplest explanation that fits the facts is almost always the right one.
b) Non-sequitor. The ability to poke holes in a theory may be legitimate holes in that theory, but it doesn't actually do anything to bolster an alternative theory. (Best example: problems with the theory of evolution do not actually do anything to prove intelligent design)
c) Suspension of disbelief. A conspiracy on the scale alleged here requires incredible precision, and no leaks or whistle blowers. Our government is hardly that competent when it comes to above-board things; it requires quite a leap of faith to think that they could pull something like this off.)

I think that this actually does a disservice to the peak oil message by so closely aligning it with fringe 9/11 theories.
