I have him blocked but I would expect a long diatribe about this on the "Alternate Realities" thread.   

But as South Park once said, "Simpsons did it".

No. Just the release of his follow-up to "The Devil Went Down To Georgia",  "The Green Apple Two-Step".

In my experience, most politically active people believe in some conspiracy theories. My sister believes in Contrails. My brother thinks the moon landings were a hoax. I've met tons of people who believe in some form of clandestine world government. All conspiracy theories are based more on speculation than evidence. When people are emotionally invested in something they cannot prove even to themselves, it makes them volatile.

People tend to believe what they want to believe. It's one of the reasons I taught the Bible to teenagers for 20 years. Adults tend to be more rigid in their beliefs and data to the contrary will often rile them.

In my experience, the people most invested in conspiracies are using them as excuses for their own failures.

Pretty much.

Obviously Daniels is a loon about this but its also true that some things are labeled conspiracy theories in an effort to discredit them. Cass Sunstein (Remember him) wrote a paper while at Columbia university about using conspiracy theories to manipulate the population. He spoke about using them constructively to build support for political action. He also spoke about using them to discredit opposition be baiting them into chasing crazy theories.

Or he could just have a sense of humor.

I've been to the back gate of Area 51, and it was pretty creepy. The road to it from Rachel is about 15 miles, of which the first 12 or so is gravel. The last 3 miles are paved. Spooky.

I warn my wife after eating Taco Bell to get ready for an epic fartstorm.
