I watched 60 Minutes tonight ... they seem to think there is a considerable amount of interesting news surrounding the White House and the Chinese Government/Military ... seems like Commerce made some interesting decisions on allowing military aircraft and missile fabrication equipment to get to China ...

I thought it was interesting that they commented on how convenient it was that Ron Brown would have had full knowledge about the situation ... they mentioned him a couple of times ... maybe for ratings, but they explored quite a story ... ;-)

What did they say about the time of day of the crash?

I've seen conflicting comments on the weather. But when it first came out that the flight wasn't in the middle of the night, the statement was weather wasn't an issue.

I take anything that appears in the mainstream press with a grain of salt.

The beacons being fooled with is one of the "conspiracy" issues, I wonder how they explained that away.

Do they say anything about the death of the air traffic controller?
