Axl would turn on Beta in a heartbeat if she tried pulling a reunion card. Guaranteed. And I think they know that, too.

There is no balance of power, really. Axl has made it pretty clear what Slash has to do to open any line of communication. The ball has always been in Slash's court.

And no, Axl isn't reuniting anytime soon. And if he does, it won't be in the way anyone here likes.

I don't think so.  I think you give Axl way more power over his life than he really has.  Axl is your typical portray one image (strength) while being completely the opposite in reality.  The guy's world fell apart in the early to mid 90s and it took him 10+ years to get over it enough to be even remotely productive and what he did was done half-assed.  That isn't a pillar of strength.

Agreed, but the record company knows this too, which is why they will never let him out of his contract.  Having said that, they aren't about to let him take any more money from them up front either.  It's an interesting dynamic that adds to the stalemate.  The record company has Axl by the balls, team brazil has Axl by the balls, Axl only has Slash by the balls (and only in terms of a reunion). 

What would be interesting is if Slash gets over this to the point that he doesn't even want a reunion...then Axl and team brazil have nothing.  I don't think he's there, but I think the HoF episode certainly pushed him closer.

I get never trust authority completely, but going so far in the other directions is equally if not more unhealthy.

Big difference though being fat ur entire life and then.becoming fat. For instance ive always been heavy so at 190lbs I can run half marathons.  My brother always was very skinny so at 190lbs he can barely walk a mile.

Agreed.  I was 135 lbs when I graduated high school and could run forever.  I'm roughly 220 now and I can't even run a half mile.  Some of that is just being out of shape and not doing it, but a lot of it is my legs not being used to holding that much weight...it's hard on my knees, shins, and hips.

If you're trying to to find holes in my theory you're on a wild goose chase, cause I don't have one other than that what the gov is telling us is not true. Go ask FBI why Bin Laden was wanted for USS Cole but not 911. Go ask Tony Blair why he thinks the "evidence" wouldn't hold up in a court of law. Go ask the commission why you can to this day call up most of the hijackers named in their report and ask them why they're not dead. Ask them why who financed the operation is considered "unimportant" and why they haven't even bothered to check the bank slips.

It's because there is no evidence. The story is not real. That's all there is to it. Obviously trying to uncover what really actually happened is a little out of the hands of a regular norwegian with a computer.

See, now you're talking about different things.  Ask Al Capone what he ultimately got thrown in jail for...it wasn't the murders he ordered, it was for tax evasion.  You prove what you can prove and don't worry about what you can't prove.  Why do you think OJ is in jail as long as he is? 

If you can't prove something, you focus on what you can prove.  Who cares why you nail someone as long as you nail them?  I don't.  If you do enough things wrong, sooner or later they are going to be able to prove one of them.

I'm certain I never said I believe everything the gov't says.  I know they don't tell us everything.  I don't have illusions of how things work in this country.  I don't allow that to transition into thinking that they can come up with such a sound conspiracy as blowing up the twin towers with planes that didn't exist and that the buildings were part of an elaborate demolition that would have taken literally thousands of people to execute and subsequently NONE of those people ever uttering a word about it to anyone.  I think you can question things without taking it to the level of absurdity because once you go to that level, nobody is going to believe anything you say.

I love the JFK conspiracy because it's possible.  I love gnr conspiracies because they are possible.  There's no way that the gov't pulled off something as elaborate as 9/11 almost flawlessly while leaving simple video evidence that some computer nerd can easily spot on youtube.  Think about that...

LOL @ youtube being official.  I know they were doctored, I'm just not agreeing with you on who is doing the doctoring.

Here's the part I don't get: why are the gnr twitter and facebook accounts promoting the site?  On the surface it looks like something some retarded kid set up in his basement, which makes me think it might really be gnr management's work.

Dude its legit. Trust me

What does that have to do with anything?  It's still a piece of crap website.  I never said it wasn't legit...

The bulding didn't fall perfectly, actually.

About as perfect as you can make a high rise fall.

It sounds very nice when you put it like that, until you realize these buildings are designed to withstand all of that. I could pour gasoline on a steel building for weeks and it wouldn't fall. A slight structural dent to the side wouldn't change a whole lot in that equation. Maybe, with major structural damage, you could initiate some sort of collapse, but no way in hell would it come down clean and neat like that. That kinda stuff takes months of preparations.

So lets ignore that fact that you are not an expert and have no idea what you're talking about.

"That kinda stuff takes months of preparations"

If you mean planting the explosives to blow up the building demolition style, you may be right.  Lets assume you are.  How did people for months set up explosives without anybody that works in the building noticing?  Did the employees know what was going on and voluntarily give up their lives as part of the conspiracy?  Did all of the people required to set up the explosives all keep quiet to absolutely every single person on the planet? 

See?  There are holes all over the place in the conspiracy.  That's not even trying to analyze anything from an expert point of view...this is just looking at the human side of things.

Because if it was you'd see a revolution in demolition work at the moment. Lighting a fire on the third floor or whatever surely seems a cost effective way to bring a high rise building down.

Support columns don't just snap, and especially not all at the same time initiating a symmetric collapse. If they did you'd see a hell of a lot of buildings collapsing around the world.

Even if it was possible you'd have to agree it would be very unlikely, and when it happens 3 times in a day it's time to get suspicious.

See, that's just it...I don't get suspicious.  One reason is the overwhelming amount of doctored "evidence" from conspiracy people.  Another reason is that I haven't seen a slew of actual experts (read: not a conspiracy nutjob) say anything about how impossible that is or even how unlikely it is.  If you want people to believe something, don't add on to it.  Focus on the part you can "prove" or at least provide credible questions about.  People will buy into that, but when you try to make it so big that it's no longer even feasible, you lose people.  I mean really, the jets were fake and weren't really crashed into the buildings?  Come on man.
