Also this podcast made me think of an article I did read yesterday about
CERN and conspiracies:

http://www.wsj.com/articles/cern-is-seeking-secrets-of-the-universe-or-maybe-opening-the-portals-of-hell-1459800113


It really seems that yes, it is probably useless to just confront
blinkered people:

« Ms. Kahle, who has a degree in physics, said she has tried to engage
directly with "serial conspiracy theorists," with mixed results. She
said the response to one of her denials of occult mischief was: "What is
that a 'no' to, the portal or the demons?" »

Or maybe it is not just the good way of doing it, to this I have no
answer, and I'm not as confident as Brian Dunning here.
