I am an older college student. The Texas A & M - Commerce campus newspaper, "The East Texan", asked me late one night if I could submit an article as a guest columnist. The article was due the next day. I pounded the keys till past midnight, giving the article to the Editor who was still at her post.

The paper printed the hard copy on September 25th, 2008 with the article in the middle of page 2. The online edition is now available. "9/11 truth movement continues to grow" Here it is: http://media.www.theeasttexan.com/media/storage/paper1164/news/2008/09/25/Opinion/911-Truth.Movement.Continues.To.Grow-345...

Anyone can place a comment. I welcome comments. It will give the article a long life. (Please do NOT start into esoteric stuff about the NWO or subjects that are way beyond the public's common understanding. Just simple, easy to grasp statements are best.)

In one of my Communications classes, today we gave 5 minute speeches on a “memorable experience”. I used the occasion to talk about last Friday, April 18, 2008 when the Fourteen Points paper was posted on 911Blogger.com. It went something like this:

“Do you still think that jet fuel brought down the World Trade Center?”

Last Friday, I was thinking that today I would be talking to ya’ll about the first time I saw Loose Change, the online DVD that quote is from, which a lot of you have probably heard of. However, last Friday night something happened, that, imho, is just as memorable and is more immediately significant.

Here is a neat little story about 9/11 Truth which happened TODAY, 1/17/08.

Today at college, I was in a packed classroom auditorium, shoulder-to-shoulder with about 60 other students. The Professor was going down the roll list asking people to introduce themselves and briefly tell a little about themselves.

Please join us this Monday on the SUNY Albany Campus for a presentation of Improbable Collapse, with Special Guest Mike Berger.
Photos from our Rally on 4/11 are here.

If you are in the Albany area this Wednesday please join us on the SUNY Albany Campus for an afternoon of 9/11 Truth events. If anyone can come to our meeting tonight (SUNY Albany CC 367 at 7pm) we will need help labeling and packing DVDs
Our goal is to pass out 1000 copies of 9/11 Press For Truth to the students of SUNY Albany.
Don't forget to put signs in your windows and on your lawns!

Every Eleventh - Every Month!
C'mon Truthers, Let's wake this sleeping nation!
