Mark, The Ap defined you today as an Ap photog when in fact you are a 
charlatian who doctotred your photo. You will be found out soon enough, and 
the entire world will know your hoaxing. Sad. You are sick puppy. My friend 
in NYC has equipemtn that can detect doctoring and he is performing tests on 
your photo right now. So please admit the truth NOW before the media tells 
the truth. You can fool most of the people most of the time, including the 
AP, but you can't fool me. You will be found out and your career wrecked if 
it turns out you lied and doctored. Be careful Mr Stellar Images.
Cheers
DAN BLOOM,.
Internet reporter/sleuth/ TAIWAN, hot on your trail, you damn hoaxer
I will not stop until I have found you out. I smell a skunk. and you know 
it!



I cannot explain how or why this happened, but those who think I somehow 
doctored the photograph are wrong.



Legend:
Images of the World Trade Center fire reveal the face of Satan.






Origins:   The images above come from, respectively, CNN's television 
coverage and a photo snapped by freelance photographer Mark D. Phillips (who 
subsequently sold his picture to Associated Press) as New York's World Trade 
Center towers burned after the terrorist attack on 11 September 2001. Both 
organizations insist they do not manipulate the images used in their news 
stories.

Finding demonic images in photographs and other visual representations -- 
especially those depicting scenes of death and disaster -- is an age-old 
human behavior employed to ascribe catastrophes to evil forces beyond our 
control, or to fix blame on a target of choice (rather than the real 
perpetrators):




Pareidol ...is the technical term for our penchant for finding specific 
images amidst randomness. Just as people see all sorts of images in clouds, 
so viewers can find anything from an ordinary ball of smoke to the face of 
Satan himself in these kinds of pictures. But do we really need to find the 
visage of the devil here to know that evil was behind the events pictured?
