    the public's desire to consume kooky conspiracy crap has always been with us.

This is probably giving the conspiracy 'community' too much credit, but we desire mystery. We desire myth and legend. We live in an era where all the great myths have been/are being torn down.

All that longing for the mysterious has to go somewhere.
