    So apparently there is a planet visable at the moment to the South East / South, anyone know what it is?

    I said I was surprised it wasnt on BBC’s website, Looney tells me they wouldnt publish it because it would cause widespread panic as its a brand new planet? Aliens I joked, wouldnt be surprised was his serious reply… 🙄

    This then rolls onto a storey that the USA have empited the Federal reserves & there is no longer any gold at Fort Knox or the Pentagon because they have spent $10Trillion on building an underground city for the privilaged few for when dooms day comes…

    Not going for lunch with him alone again any time soon 😯

    There are loads of sky map apps out there, probably some websites but definitely phone apps – Google make one.

    As for the nutter – either blind him with science (but don’t, cos it’s pointless) or tease him by telling him even more outrageous stories.

    Probably true.

    UK doesn’t have any gold reserves (courtesy of Gordon Brown who decided to sell it all, at the lowest price possible in recent years, which serves to highlight his financial acuity).

    Debating anything with a conspiracy theorist is like trying to explain the concepts of compassion or empathy to a Tory. Utterly pointless!

    He’s wrong about the planet but right about the lack of physical gold. But instead of building Doomsday cities the Fed has used it and endless QE to prop-up an economy that is unsustainable.

    If the QE is genuinely endless, its probably sustainable, just FYI.

    tell him you’ve spoken to your friend at GCHQ and he told you it was nothing to worry about but he wanted your colleagues name and other details so they could contact him directly to reassure him.

    My favourite response is “of course you know all such internet conspiracy theories are developed and circulated by a secret underground pan governmental organisation to keep the prying minds of keyboard detectives away from the real truth”

    It causes them a bit of a logic processing overload…

    I bumped in to an old friend the other day who told me all sorts of things during an evening out. I think my favourite two were:

    1) That there was an infinite amount of electrical energy in the air all around us and that the technology to harness it was perfected years ago, but that the oil companies have it all covered up so they can keep charging us for energy.

    2) That anti gravity technology was perfected years ago but (similary) was all covered up so the public could continue being charged for flights. According to him back to the future hover boards are a reality.

    Ah…..the Tesla Car 😀

    Had many a debate with someone about that, he eventually conceded it was “probably exaggerated or made up”

    siiiggghhhhh — sounds like someone is guillable enough to buy into right wing media conspiracies
    about half of the gold was sold off (the dutch and swiss also sold off similare amounts) and reinvested in currencey at the time of the anouncement gold price was low and falling but then beagn to rise again it wasnt till 2012 that it peaked and is now falling again

    Perhaps they used the money to build a Death Star? It would explain:

    Not exactly a conspiracy the gold sales

    The gold was sold between 99 and 02 at an average of $275 an ounce
    In 2007 it was close to $700 an ounce and by 2009 it was over $1000 an ounce.

    No conspiracy, just a big ****-up.

    Nope, the Wyre Forest. Oh, and somewhere on the Chase, another in the Peaks and a few random possibilities elsewhere in the Midlands.

    Regarding the planets, Jupiter might be visible at the moment but it’s at a low angle. It follows the moon-rise, rising in the E-SE around 9pm and appearing to the south by about midnight.

    Clearly the gold wasn’t sold to fund building a time machine

    Not quite. Jupiter will rise at around midnight in the NE and move towards the S then SW through the night. It’s a very obvious object in the sky and is quite high in the sky in the early hours. It looks stunning through a telescope. It’s followed quite closely by Mars which is pretty difficult to identify if you don’t know what to look for but again is obvious in a scope. Venus is very bright but very close to the sun at sunset and sets shortly after. A few weeks ago it looked very bright in the SW sunset. Uranus is also visible through a scope – I found it a few weeks ago and I believe Neptune is out there but I can’t find the bleeding thing!

    So yes there are plenty of planets out there and visible.

    In answer to the original OP – the obvious reply is that any of the numerous amateur astronomers like myself may have noticed a new planet and maybe talking about it on the relevant forums. It would take a monumental amount of censorship to cover it up. And seeing as we can spot the Galilean moons of Jupiter, I’m sure that someone would have noticed Planet X or whatever Loony is on about.

    Update: was in his office approximately 4pm & he was listening to Alex Jones of Info Wars fame, online stream.

    ‘He’s a nutter this guy you know’ I said

    ‘I’d be nuts if i knew what he knows’ was his reply

    Well, it’s Israeli owned, so if you want to stretch a connection to breaking point…

    Dylan turvey was my original thought too 😀

    I do sometimes wonder if his stem spaces under the crown race was utter madness or an unbelievable insight into the future of MTB geometry…

    Assad is saying that the rebels gassed their own people to make him look bad, so perhaps the Israelis bombed their own shopping centre to elicit sympathy ?

    I sympathise, I was getting on well with a colleague at work until we got on to religions, and he trotted out in all seriousness that the world is ruled from behind the scenes by a conspiracy of wealthy Zionists. Not joking at all, he thought this was a true fact. Sigh.

    Tomas townsend brown probably did actually demonstrate a proof of concept in 1952 to the navy

    im pretty sure lockheed disclosed they have an aircraft which intentionally discharge many million volts from their leading edges

    Used have a chap come into to work who was a bit mental. He was convinced that oblivion was so close that he stocked up on tinned goods and put them all in his basement. He also used to come in whinging about chemtrails as well, I tried explaining the science behind that one once but got nowhere.
