Comment: A stirring picture has been circulating around the Internet this week. It seems to be of a tourist on the observation deck of one of the World Trade Center towers moments before the attack.

Someone should tell that guy the pic is a fake. The aircraft is a 757 not a 767, he's standing on the opposite tower, the observervation deck wasn't open yet--- D'OH!!!

Comment: I was at this website one day and I saw pictures of the wtc with a devils face in the smoke. The owner of the site says it's true because the photographers took a lie detecter test. I was just wondering if you could tell me if this is true.

Comment: There has been a lot of rumors going around, especially conspiracy theories, about the events of 9/11. I lost my brother on 9/11 and would like to know what the facts really are. Please address some of the rumors that are now widely circulating.

Oh, I see. The site owner took a lie detector test about SOMETHING, not necessarily the veracity of the silly photo, so naturally, we are supposed to believe him implicitly. And, of course, we are supposed to ignore all the evidence that a great many people are able to fool lie detector tests. Sheesh...

Well that's pretty sad so I don't think a sarcastic answer would be in order...
Oh heck: Where did you lose your brother? I lost my brother on 9/11 at the Pine Meadows Mall but we found him in the Electronics Boutique playing Cel Damage.
Regarding rumors, generally those involving the CIA, Illuminati, a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world (known as The Pentaveret) or the Clintons are true. Don't believe the others.

Comment: That is the most assenine thing I have ever heard--making man of the year out of that horrendous killer. It is an insult to the people who lost loved ones in the 9/11 attacks. If Time wants a Man of the Year might I suggest Todd Beamer who had the courage to advert yet another tragedy on 9/11

Could be that cover article Weekly World News runs, whenever things get really slow in the Land of the Truly Gullible, on how the 'face of Satan' was found in some disaster or other. It looks quite a bit like the face in the WTC photos, only with obvious retouch...erm, I mean, lots more detail.

Soooo...who wants to be the first to tell them...?
In fairness, this request could just as easily refer to the 'inside' of the WTC before 9/11. Certainly coulda been phrased better though.

Not to mention this small but important fact that lots of people don't seem to remember: How in the NFBSK did the picture get developed?! Some sort of magical developer cloud as a result of burning jet fuel? Gah.

This reminds me of something I've wanted to ask, but had no idea where to post it.
It says that the SLC is for those who passed the secret initiation rituals. So, I take it to mean that it's an unofficially restricted area (in theory, a newbie could post there, but they had better be wearing flame-retardant gear).
And what are these initiation rituals? Does it involve group sex, Jack Daniels, and a case of Twinkies?

Actually some of the original emails had an explanation. A fireman found a camera several blocks from the WTC (I guess "thrown clear" of the explosions). He took the film to Walgreens' one-hour and that's what came out.

You know, that's a great idea! Hey, have you seen the picture of that poor tourist on the observation deck?

Yeah, that'd be just so relevant! C'mon, snopes, what's keeping you?! How 'bout you add the photo where Satan's face appears in the WTC smoke, too? And the 'Don't go to the mall on Halloween' thing? Maybe you could even throw in a careful, objective point-by-point debunking of that French author who says the Pentagon crash was a hoax!

It's true. They really are pictures of Satan. I know, because I asked him and he told me himself. You had better be satisfied with that answer because I had to sacrifice 5 kittens and a fruit bat to get it.

I am absolutely sure that no one else noticed that but you! Thanks for telling us, or we would have never known. I think it's in order for you to spread your knowledge to every place you can think of! Actually, if you haven't already, I would elaborate on that and make a chain email so I could send it to all of my friends!
