That's a weird argument (that I never made). Though I have to wonder about that. IPv4 headers and HTTP headers don't much look the same IME (feel free to hit up Wikipedia if you're unfamiliar).

As far as "how nuts your are". You seem to be taking this way too seriously.

"My gut reaction is to be skeptical" somehow equates to, in your words:

  * Nuts
  * Conspiracy Theorist
  * Nonsense
  * Irrational
Expressing skepticism that the FBI would "tell the whole truth and nothing but", despite high ranking intelligence officials outright lying to congress, and the history of the FBI being a bit checkered... That you think should raise alarm bells. Skepticism.

If that's all it takes to be a conspiracy theorist in your book, well sign me up I guess.

The outright dismissal that it might just be possible you don't have all the facts (and I'm certainly not claiming I do)... That's an idea you dismiss outright. I have to wonder how you get there. Because if anything here seems irrational, that's what I'd put my finger on. But maybe that's just me.
