This is a distant issue for me, too, though I must say I was curious when, in a conversation with a never-previously-highly-vocal anti-Truther who burst forward with a "new" ("soso") attack in a slaphazard cut-and-paste using the predictable sources for debunking, he took issue with my statement that there had never been a valid forensic investigation of the 9/11 events by immediately pointing to the DNA work.
I actually meant forensic in the scientific, holistic and legal or evidentiary methods, and told him I thought the DNA work itself was hastily done and suspect for several reasons. I suggested to him that we collaborate on a taxonomy of the entirety of the days events using concept mapping software, and referred him to the search capabilities at History Commons, and suggested a page-by-page review and breakdown of the books by David Ray Griffin and Peter Dale Scott, but as of this morning he hadn't taken me up on the offer.
