Calm the fuck doon APM! He probably sent it to everyone in his contact list

It was only sent to me

How can you tell there were no others on BCC? The text sounds like it was intended as a mass mailing, not adressing a single particular person.

But anyway... Sounds like he's just another 9/11 truther. I've read that only 15% of all americans believe the official version completely, so I don't see why you make such a big deal out of one email from someone you seem to consider to be an idiot anyway.

I don't think he's an idiot. Well, didn't*

It says who the email was sent to and it was just me. Maybe he's sending it to a few people and just didn't think to add several contacts to one email, but I doubt it. He does mention specifically Christopher "cancerhitch", and I mentioned him a few times when we used to talk. I would say this goes well beyond "just another 9/11 truther", but maybe I haven't seen enough.

I was talking about BCC (blind copy). You cannot tell whether an email was sent to other recipients if they were listed in an email's BCC list (where, especially in the case of mass mailings, all recipients should actually be listed).

But since few people even know about this, you being the only recipient is indeed more probable. ;)

On topic, but I don't believe double/triple/quadruple posting is allowed.



Some people are genetically inclined to believe in conspiracy theories and some aren't. Who cares it's not a big deal. We all have a role to play in society.

Like the guy who discovered Jonah Lehrer made up Bob Dylan quotes. (http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/us-news-blog/2012/jul/30/jonah-lehrer-quits-new-yorker)

I mean you need to be a little obsessive to figure that out, but because of that obsessiveness we're a little better. That's the only example I could think of.

(1) We are all ignorant of everyone else's experiences and perspectives
(2) We're ignorant of that fact we're all ignorant
