9/11 TRUTHERS GUT PUNCHED BY HISTORY CHANNEL
Hans:
And it would have left a huge pile of rubble and some of the core steel structure, not neatly cut steel and dust
How idiotic can you be that you think that the debris from the towers was "neatly cut steel and dust"? Unlike you, I actually saw Ground Zero, eleven days after the tragedy. I can assure you it was an absolutely huge pile of jagged rubble, like nothing I had seen before or will ever see again.

Clarification to my previous post - everything following the word "acceleration" should NOT be italicized.

#83 David - Wow, did you forget your #77 that quickly?
*89 Hans -
The fires that remained were pretty small and localized, and couldn’t have heated very much steel.
How did you arrive at that conclusion?
The towers collapsed because the beams and joists expanded from the heat, buckling themselves or the columns, and eventually causing the 47 core columns to give way. All the way down a thousand feet. In ten seconds.
Like all "Truthers", you're selectively hearing and misrepresenting how the collapse occurred.
To make a long story short, the heat only weakened the support structure in the immediate area of the fire. It had no effect on the rest of the building below it until the support structure in the immediate area of the crash and fire began to fail and upper floors started to move down. Once the building started moving down (from gravity), the support structure could no longer stand in the way of the millions of tons of steel and concrete coming from above, moving at the speed* of gravity.
*Or to be more precise, the acceleration of gravity, 9.81 m/sec(2).
Regarding the concrete - it actually did serve a structural purpose - it stabilized the columns in the horizontal plane, much like the wooden beams of a brick building. And once the concrete of each successive floor shattered, it added to the weight crashing down on the rest of the building.

I don't think that I'm unusually smart, David, I just think that you are an incoherent moron.

Torin Wolf's credentials:
Since he received his GED at age 14, saying he is a smart guy is putting it lightly.

Torin Wolf cites absolutely zero sources on his claim regarding the NIST. So he has absolutely zero credibility, like all the other Troofer wackos.

Not too handy with the HTML, are you, David?
The History Channel is owed [sic] by General Electric which makes bombs for [sic] the Military Industrial Complex
Not sure where you got these crazy notions, David. GE owns barely 20% of the History Channel, and doesn't make "bombs", just jet engines for civilian and military aircraft.
Also, by your use of the preposition "for", it appears that you misunderstand the meaning of the phrase "military industrial complex".

How long before Busboy says, "who are you going to believe - me or your own lying eyes?"
And how many here doubt that this is the "first" witness account that he has heard... and dismissed?

"Jeb Bush declared Martial Law"?
Are you for real, Brad?
