To believe this crap, you'd have to believe in the most complex and bizarre conspiracy imaginable. I can't get past the "controlled demolition" explanation. I've worked in a bunch of skyscrapers. Workmen are always questioned. And planting explosives secretly amongst tens of thousands of bored busybodies seems like a difficult task to me. That work is done by specialty firms. Lots and lots of manhours would be needed for two giant buildigs. It seems unlikely to me that the work could have been carried out in secret. Gee I saw no strange looking guys hiding anything under their coats. Man you are one NutJob. There are plenty of ways to place charges anywhere they wanted. You sure are one simple minded soul aren't you? Do you think people would carry their tools in broad daylight while all the workers are on the job? When maintenance workers enter does do they ever do it while everyone is at work? No they don't fool. Does anyone even see the plumber or electrician while they are doing their job? No they don't. They do it and don't bother anyone or even disrupt the work flow. You really should try to get out more often and get away from the internet once in a while. Nobody unknown walks into a Manhattan office bulding at any time of day without being planned for and with people controlling the space notified and told why. Office buldings are 24x7 operations with several unrelated layers of security, especially after Feb 26, 1993 at the WTC. Just getting access to the elevators to carry tools and material requires paperwork. There is no eyewitness or audio/video record of explosions of size, placement, and timing consistent with the collapse of any of the towers on 9/11. In 1993, a 1000 pound bomb in the basement of a tower was loud enough to be heard for blocks around and by everyone inside the complex and powerful enough to destroy several floors of reinforced concrete yet it was nowhere close to weakening the tower's structure. In 2001, any bomb would have to be as bigger and louder to have any effect. For 9/11, each and every beam was examined by at least one civil engineer before it was shipped to China. A couple thousands were kept for analysis. 1,300 are in storage here. More links to stories about that process on request. http://www.amny.com/entertainment/ne...2006,0,6613706.... http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...656282270164-- a d y k e s @ p a n i x . c o m Don't blame me. I voted for Gore. A Proud signature since 2001- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - ESK is right about the fact that you can't compare a 1000lb crude bomb placed in the parking garage in 93 to the use of shaped charge explosives that are positioned precisely on the structural support that you want to cut. And that is pretty much what they do. The charges almost cut the steel, rather than blowing it every which way. You could do far more structural damage to a building with 1000lb of charges made for the purpose and put exactly where they belong. However, none of that really has squat to do with WTC. Because there is no credible evidence that anything other than the planes were involved. Another thing to explain for the kooks is if the building were rigged with explosives, then how could you be sure that when the planes crashed, they didn't cut the various detonating cables, rip off the necessary charges, etc? Who could know exactly where the planes would even hit? Well fool they sure wouldn't have hit at ground level now would they? No the planes couldn't have hit a ground level. Thanks for that astute observation. Now, what does that have to do with anything? The point is that for a controlled demo collapse of a building, the demo charges are placed througout the structure and detonated in sequence. How are you going to ensure that planes crashing into the building, intense fires on many floors for hours, etc are not going to screw up either charges, detonation cord, etc so that it still works? BTW, if someone was going to use demo charges to bring them down. why did they need the planes? Just to make things 1000X more complicated? Kook! Anyone could have known where they were about to hit and just about how high or low that point might have been. No one saw the any explosives being planted so it could not have happened. Wahahahah.... Please tell us more. Who exactly was doing the precision flying to bring these planes into a precise floor location? By visual, ATC and blackbox data the planes were flying farily erratic. Now if the alleged explosives did indeed go off from the bottom, then precisely where the planes hit would not have interfered with the alleged demo charges. But the collapse started from the top, not far from where the planes impacted, ie close enough that it's crazy to think charges left there would not have been screwed up by the planes and fires. It's not up to others to prove a negative. Anyone can take a tiny shred of evidence and try to use it to make wild claims. Only when you look at the complete picture can you determine the truth. The official explanation fits together extremely well. As we've asked many times, what exactly is your COMPLETE EXPLANATION of how everything occured, start to finish? You guys are the kooks.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - |

(That building is about one twentieth the size of either WTC1, 2, or 7. That means that each WTC tower is about 8,000 times as massive and that the largest beams are that much stonger.) Ummm...OK. So what? There is no audio/video record or eyewitness report of explosions of size and timing and placement consistant with the collapses of any of the buildings at WTC. Yes, but what does that have to do with your point?

In 2001, any bombs would have to be as bigger and louder to have any effect. Naw, you could use many small charges, accurately placed. But that would require a lot of work, which ISTM would be impossible to do undetected. Small charges ? laugh out loud The 1000 pound bomb in 1993 destroyed several levels of reinforced concrete yet didn't come close to damaging the structure. It was hear for blocks around. There is nothing on the audio/video record that shows explosives consistant in loudness, placement and timing with the inages of the collapse. Why doesn't the "truth movement" pay a demolition expert to design a plan that he thinks that would be consistant with the audio/video record of the collapse of one of the towers and the laws of physics. There isn't a single demolition expert in the world that says that WTC1, 2, or 7 were brought down by man-made explosives or thermate/thermite. All that have commented, and there are many, are on record as saying that no man-made explosives/therm*te were needed. Name one and prove me wrong. (I know what Jowenko has said and will cite his statements if you mention him as someone that says WTC was a CD). You are a buffoon. Name one and prove me wrong. Man you are lame. You are more obsessed with being right to see beyond that red rubber nose on your clown face. |

Make up all the BS you want but this does not show anyone a single thing. No. The sound of the impact was not like that of a large cutting charge. In the hour after the impact fires raged in towers 1 and 2 right up to the instant of the collaspe. Video shows the building failing at the location of the fire, nowhere else. No demolition explosions were heard immediatly preceeding the collapse. There were explosions heard whether you like it or not fool. People that were there have stated this over and over again. Man you are a dumb one aren't you? There have been videos made to show this but you refuse to believe anything but what you want. You have no credibility and none of your YouTube BS means squat. Get back to your video games and dream on little broomstick cowboy. |

Yes, but what does that have to do with your point? You'e said it 5 times already. Cutting charges go boom. Cutting charges for big beams go BOOM Nobody saw or heard BOOM immediatly preceeding the collapse of any tower. The core beams were boxes 36x12, and 2 inches thick. [1] That is 200 squuare inches of solid steel. Why to Truthers think that the cutting charges for these beams would be any less loud or visible than those of the Landmark Tower demolition, a building about 8,000 time less massive than a WTC tower. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79sJ1bMR6VQ There is no eyewitness or audio/video record of any explosions of size, placement, timing or brisance [2], that immediatly preceeds any tower collapse. Cutting charges have a characteristic sharp "crack", called brisance. That is the sound of the shock wave that makes a cutting charge work. Each and every beam was examined by at least one civil engineer before it was shipped to China.[4] A couple thousands were kept for analysis. 1,300 are in storage [3]. None show the characteristics of being cut with cutting charges or thermite except where the were cut up to fit on a truck.

Gene Corley and the rest of the FEMA/ASCE investigation team gained full access to the World Trade Center site, on September 29, 2001. The team also had access to the Fresh Kills Landfill on Staten Island, where they examined structural debris. The team also examined steel and debris at two recycling yards in New Jersey. They obtained samples of the structural steel, which were subjected to laboratory analysis. Numerous other professional engineers (members of SEAoNY) continued this work through Spring 2002, visiting recycling yards and landfills regularly to examine debris and obtain more samples. Additional samples were obtained and sent to NIST, for further study and analysis. While others have expressed some concern that the work of the team was hampered because debris was removed from the site and was subsequently processed for recycling, that was not the case. The team had full access to scrap yards and to the site, and was able to obtain numerous samples. There is no indication that having access to each piece of steel from the World Trade Center would make a significant difference to understanding the performance of the structures.[4] http://www.berkeley.edu/news/berkele...0/03_grou.html "Supported by funds from the National Science Foundation to investigate the collapse of the two 110-story towers, he spent his days and nights looking at twisted and burnt steel pulled from the wreckage, searching for clues to the cause and collecting perishable data.

Some fantasy that you guys like to engage in? Where is the security of such a building and who checks out each maintenance worker that enters and leaves? Do you know for sure that no one could have possibly entered at any time to do what needed to be done? There is always a possibility that anything could happen and just because there is no proof positive one way or the other than this means nothing. Who would have believed that 911 could have occurred in the first place? Reasonable suspicion is all that it needed to create doubt and many people have plenty of that. To think that everything is as it is told to you is the absolute truth is pretty lame and to try to argue that way is just a loony and someone that doubt what is fed to them. snip When you can come up with some way that hundreds of workers working for months on end, stripping walls, making one huge mess, hauling away tones of the debris that was made getting access to the columns, cutting notches in beams, stringing miles of det cord, without anyone noticing then the sane people here will listen. Until then your disbeif is flat kookery. The hundreds of men is probably too many but the crew would have been big. The 'months on end' is accurate. It would take that long to prepare a building the size of the WTCs for demo. Watch a show on controlled demolions some time, the History channel runs them occasionally. Here is a clue, just prior to detonation, you can look clear through the building - that is how much stuff has been removed. But of course you will still somehow believe that all that is possible without being noticed. Harry K Harry K You are the one that says that is what is needed to get the job done not me. Given enough time anything can be done and no explanation need be given. How much time was needed? Do you think this might have had to been planned over one weekend? Was every floor occupied and was anyone expecting something to happen and was everyone looking for something suspicious? How was it that 12 terrorists got by all the security needed to fly all the planes at the same time into the most crowded city in the country? How did all this come about without anyone even finding out? How was it that even when Bush was told about it he just sat there on his stupid ass and did nothing? This was the unbelievable part you fool. Not the part about placing charges in a tall building. Why are you loons so dumb to think otherwise? This whole 911 even happened and you obsess about some simple thing that could have easily have occurred. Man you are a stupid lot of asshats. If before 911 someone was asked what they thought more likely to occur. Some team of crack specialists blowing up a tower in NYC or flying huge jumbo jets into sky scrappers what do you think would have been the answer? Why are you so lame? |

I've managed the cnstruction and operation of full floors of 24x7 computer operations in large Manhattan buildings. After the 1993 bombing WTC was very secure. Planted bombs would be hundreds to thousands of pounds of material and a large crew. Nobody uses the loading docks without advance notice and paperwork, day or night. Nobody uses the elevators to move material at night without advance notice. freight Elevators are very busy. IME, you never have one by yourself, if only becuase they have a human operator. The night crews in a bulding know each other. They talk. They talk to strangers. Nobody tells them to "leave for a security check". On a lighter note, Anyone that hasn't seen Gound Zero and the kooks that hang out there should look at the first two videos. The others should be required viewing by anyone that has an opinion about 9/11 and WTC. You are the only kook here jack-in-the-box. You and your ignorant lamers that insist on posting YouTube BS as some sort of proof. |
