There was a poll a couple of years ago which found that 40% of the population of New York City thought that there was something that had been covered up about the official 9/11 story, though support for the individual specific conspiracy theories was lower.
The links should be in the WTC disaster page talk page history.
That many people thinking there's something conspiratorial going on terrifies me, for one, but it is a real issue...
It's not necessarily crazy to think that there may have been things covered up about 9/11; at the very least, evidence of screwups on the part of those whose job it was to try and catch people like this. Such a broadly worded question is different than specific conspiracy theories.
