What on earth...

... does this conspiracy nonsense have to do with the subject of the article?

"He also plays the stock market the day before to make a huge profit from the planned disaster--a possible "revelation of the method" from Ian Fleming in 1955 of the stock market short-selling centered around the infamous, Nazi-created Deutsche Bank days before the September 11, 2001 terror attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in northern Virginia." 84.161.98.155 (talk) 20:17, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Agreed. This is garbage. 71.184.178.110 (talk) 02:56, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

plot correction

No idea why a plot correction I made was undone, but I've corrected it again. Relevant text from the novel: It was a simple plan. In the evening, two of my men, one in American uniform and one in British, were to drive up in a captured scout car containing two tons of explosive. There was a car park-no sentries of course-near the mess hall and they were to run the car in as close to the mess hall as possible, time the fuse for the seven o'clock dinner hour, and then get away. All quite easy and I went off that morning on my own business and left the job to my second in command I was dressed in the uniform of your Signal Corps and I set off on a captured British motor-cycle to shoot a dispatch rider from the same unit who made a daily run along a near-by road. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.32.110.173 (talk) 00:31, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Mea cupla - my memory was playing me false: I'd forgotten this was one of Fleming's overly large coincidences! - SchroCat (^ • @) 07:08, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
