Listen, you CANNOT claim a building was demoed without some idea of how
to actually do it. There is no way to explain how your theories could
be pulled off.

You can come up with whatever method to prove your theory, but the
reality of making it happen is impossible.

Quit deflecting, henry. Just come up with more wild theories.

OK, now how much and where do you put these? You state that the support
structures are VERY stout, but how much explosive would be required.

Answer- Too much without being noticed by anybody. That is trucks and
trucks of explosives placed in a very well thought out manner and
somehow synced to go off in the exact moment to bring the building down
and do so undetected.

Tall order.

I think that is the problem. Your statement says it all "the best demo
team on the planet could not have possibly have dropped it..." (do you
enjoy the post edits like your bowel movement buddies like to do?)

You can't build a new building when the old one is still there, and
they can't figure out how to demolish it without anyone noticing.

Reading and thinking don't come easily for you, do they? <chuckle>


The massive steel frames of the towers were far too strong to
collapse only under their own weight. That's been proved through
physics, and that's why no other steel framed buildings have ever
collapsed that way unless they were demolished. See Gordon Ross'
excellent paper on momentum transfer on this page:

http://worldtradecentertruth.com/

As common sense would dictate, even if all the perimeter and
core columns near the top of the tower were somehow destroyed
simultaneously so that the top 20 stories or so dropped onto the
remaining undamaged frame, after some bending and compression,
the collapse would have stopped, or the upper block would have
fallen off to the side. Gordon Ross proves that with physics.

The official conspiracy requires us to believe that falling
directly =through= the massive undamaged steel frames, including
the 47 interconnected central core columns:

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/core.html

provided little more resistance than air. This is proved by
the fact that debris falling outside the towers hit the ground
about the same time as the debris falling through the towers.
Making the government's conspiracy theory even more implausible,
is the fact that the steel at the top of the towers was over
ten times lighter and thinner than the undamaged steel in the
lower section. Look at the massive core column cross section in
the bottom photo.

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/core.html

The official conspiracy theory says that crushing 47 of those
columns, all interconnected with even more steel, =and= destroying
all the perimeter columns, =and= "pancaking" all the floors, and
stairways, produced about the same kinetic friction as falling
though air. That, of course, is not physically possible.

Observe the rotating and disintegrating block on the South
Tower.

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/photos/wtc2exp4.html

Notice that the corners are curved, as the block's internal
destruction is already taking place. If it had not been destroyed
via demolition, it would have continued to rotate and fall off
the building as an intact block. Also, notice that the block is
tilting towards the corner where it was impacted. The opposite
corner was undamaged by impact or fire, as proved by photo
evidence.

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/evidence/photos/wtc2exp1.html

As the top section of that tower is rotating, the high strength,
fire resistant perimeter columns on one side of the building are
being compressed, and on the opposite side, where the building
was not damaged by fire or impact, they're being pulled apart.
Why do you think the undamaged steel perimeter frame with no
weight above it is exploding and collapsing at the same rate as
the fire and impact damaged side that is being compressed? Seems
more than a little odd, doesn't it? Here's some information on the
perimeter columns.

http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/arch/perimeter.html

Now watch the video titled, "Close-up of South Tower collapse
on this page:

http://plaguepuppy.net/public_html/collapse%20update/#videos

That certainly isn't the gradual bending and buckling of an
over heated steel frame. Those are clearly very powerful
explosions.

Here's what happens to steel framed buildings exposed
to raging infernos for hours on end.

http://davesweb.cnchost.com/nwsltr69c.html

On 9-11-01, WTC7, a 47 story steel framed building, which
had only small, random fires, dropped in perfect symmetry
at near free fall speed as in a perfectly executed controlled
demolition.

***{I could have said, of course, if I hadn't been too lazy to do a
calculation. So let's do it now.

A kilogram of steel would weigh 9.8 Newtons, and the work required to
raise it 1368 feet would be��[(1368)(12)/(39.37)](9.8) = 4086 Joules.
The specific heat of steel is about 486 Joules/kg/K, so if all the
potential energy in a kg of steel at a height of 1368 feet were
converted to heat, its temperature would rise by a mere 4086/486 = 8.4
K.�Thus I can say for sure that none of the steel came anywhere near to
its melting point due solely to the effects of converting its potential
energy into heat, irrespective of how chaotic the environment might have
been that it fell through on its way to the ground.

The implication: a hell of a lot of heat had to come from somewhere, if
there was a significant amount of molten steel pooled in the basement of
the Tower after the collapse occurred. But does that require the use of
thermite or some similar material? Or could not the same effect be
achieved by merely burning the various combustibles that wound up in the
debris pile? Offhand, the odds look rather slim, as I think about it.
I'll have to do some research into this particular point to decide, but
this particular conspiracy theory is suddenly beginning to interest me
more than a little bit.
