Fiat Lux

Hi -

I'm an occasional reader of your site, and often notice your comments at various other sites. I just wanted to commend you for one of your recent comments in regard to this topic at The Sideshow, in what I interpreted as/hope was a challenge to the link she included to a conspiracy theory on the Argentina Indymedia site. I was saddened by the link and the Indymedia post, and posted my own comment in the same comment thread where you had posted. I don't mean to make an automatic assumption as to any agreement in our respective reactions to the Sideshow link and Indymedia story, but if you were in need of any support for your challenge to the link (if it indeed was a challenge) I thought I'd mention it to you here.

Conspiracy theories such as the one linked to at Sideshow are an example, in my opinion, of the disturbing trend toward anti-Israel and anti-Semitic expression, from the right and the left, on the Internet and beyond, and I wish there was more outcry against it, rather than careless or unknowing/unintentional promotion of such theories, such as Sideshow's link (I imagine in her case inadvertently) encourages.

In any case, thanks, and good wishes to you, and for your site.
