The real mystery of Flight 188--why so few rumors?

I'm astonished and disappointed at the lack of imagination out there in the Internets. After almost four full days, all I'm finding on this story are a handful of minute updates, tweaks really, from the MSM: the old-fashioned flight recorder only captured the flight's final half hour, when the fully-awake pilots were already back-tracking from Eau Claire; the White House was informed of the situation while it was developing; the pilots, who passed their breathalyzer tests, still insist that they weren't asleep. There's a You Tube comedy sketch (the pilots were partying), another You Tube sketch in which a crazy indulges in five minutes of paranormal speculation and Satanic numerology , some risque speculation that there was sexual hanky panky going on, but not much else.On the conspiratorial website AboveTopSecret a former Delta flight attendant posts that it must have been a Black Op; someone else raises the interesting point that the passengers seemed to have been strangely unconcerned about the delay.Which makes me wonder: If the plane had those animated maps on the seat backs, then surely someone should have noticed that they'd overshot their destination--unless the passengers had also been zapped by whatever the pilots were zapped with (perhaps a top secret Quantum Phase Disruptor weapon, aimed from a CIA base on the ground; or maybe the plane flew through a particularly pungent Chemtrail).The emerging consensus seems to be that the hapless pilots were napping. Is the Blogosphere's new-found respect for critical thinking fallout from the Balloon Boy hoax? I tend to think that the 9/11 Truth Community--the source for a disproportionate amount of conspiracy theory--is taking a silent stance this time because the story undercuts so many of its own presuppositions. Or maybe it's just the week end. Click here and here for my previous posts.
