Talkin' trash to the garbage around me.

Whatever happened to that guy...?

I'm sure we all remember BYU Professor Steven Jones of "the WTC collapsed because of internally placed explosive charges" fame:
Jones recently published theories about U.S. government involvement in the events of Sept. 11, 2001, including one suggesting that explosives inside the World Trade Center -- not airplanes striking the twin towers -- brought the complex down.

BYU stripped Jones of two classes and put him on leave in early September. It also began investigating his research.

The school abandoned its review Friday after reaching a retirement agreement with Jones, BYU spokeswoman Carri P. Jenkins said.

Jenkins said the school did not pressure Jones to retire.
Unless by "pressure" you mean being stripped of two classes, placed on leave, and investigated. Nope, no pressure at all.
