Thank you for stating the value of logic, and the need to question everything.
As far as I'm concerned, the majority of so called "Internet directives" involves first; decent people on any format telling the hate mongers to go to hell, then just ignore said pathetic minds. Since the Internet is monitored by the powers that be ANYWAY, and will continue to be, threats should be taken as seriously as threats over the phone, in person, through the mail. That's something for the local police to be notified about.

We need strong legal evaluation and civil rights concerns applied so one is never targeted for political reasons. Remember "tricky Dicky?". On tape he said he wanted the meanest s.o.b. for director of the IRS. Why? Because he stated "I want him to go after our enemies and leave our friends alone". I wish he was the only President to be so driven by such abuse of the constitution, but having spent over 25 years in the U.S. intelligence community I assure you, he was not. Current Presidents just don't allow themselves to be recorded... If you want to keep something secret, there's an old expression; "nothing on paper (or tape)".

I disagree that science is censored, but scientists like my self are human beings. No one likes all to be shown they missed something, or are plain wrong. Peer review is a wonderful, and usually very effective method of testing ones conclusions. As for Dr Strangelove? Some say he was modeled on Dr. Edward Teller, the "father" of the hydrogen bomb. He was a strong proponent in that he knew the the reds would build them, and quite frankly at that time (early 1950's,late 40's) the accuracy of our missiles would have made it likely a missile could hit a target with in a mile, maybe less. We would need far far more fission bombs then we had the needed fissinable material to make. Bombers were more accurate, but much less likely (despite the movie "fail safe" to get through) A fission bombs yield would not have taken out a hardened bunker. Today the yield our nukes are measured in kilotons, few are measured any more in megatons. Why? We can use a cruise or ballistic missile to put one right through your kitchen window...

As for Teller implying Robert Oppenheimer was a communist or anti-American. He was a member of communist party in the 1930's, so were a lot of people. He was never anti-American, not even close according to still classified FBI files. His wife was more devoted, but gave no hint of being anti-American. He attended the meetings on occasion because she wanted him to go. (Any one been dragged by a spouse to a PTA meeting?) The truth is Teller was a competitor who felt he diden't got the credit for his contribution with the A-bomb. Teller was a prick, and his targeting of R.O. destroyed the man, he lost his clearance which was the kiss death having been labeled disloyal could not even a job teaching high school...

As for others who spout total b.s. on the Internet, and have no scientific basis or would know a scientific thought if it bit them in the ***, I would censor nothing. Just remind people to not believe everything they hear, or read on the Internet. Just do a little homework. You don't need a science background to look things up, although it can speed things up. I could not believe how incredibly gullible or just stupid people could be with the 9/11 conspiracy theories. People blamed the government, the Jews, the Aliens, please just pile into the little clown cars and give our children a laugh. Any VERY BASIC knowledge of engineering would dispel this crap. By the way I have knowledge of real conspiracy. To be effective you can not get bold face lies to work. You need at least 95% truth maybe 2% plausible but not true, the rest can be science fiction. But it should not be unbelievable sci-fi.
