It's not peer reviewed. So let's just assume it's not science, either,
until proven otherwise by the peer review. Which is exactly the purpose
of peer review.

Actually real engineers in Jones' own school have debunked it.

Yeah, where? Point out the specific URL?

begin excerpt
Not long after this spate of interviews, BYU’s College of Physical and
Mathematical Sciences posted a statement on its Web site stressing Jones’ right
to publish what he wished while distancing itself from Jones’ current research.

That statement has since been removed, but a similar one is still online at the
College of Engineering and Technology’s Web site.

“The University is aware that Professor Steven Jones’s hypotheses and
interpretations of evidence regarding the collapse of World Trade Center
buildings are being questioned by a number of scholars and practitioners,
including many of BYU’s own faculty members,” it reads in part.

“Professor Jones’s department and college administrators are not convinced that
his analyses and hypotheses have been submitted to relevant scientific venues
that would ensure rigorous technical peer review. The structural engineering
faculty in the Fulton College of Engineering and Technology do not support the
hypotheses of Professor Jones.”

Reached for comment, structural engineering professors Steven Benzley and Rick
Balling both said they supported the statement as written.

Balling said he and Benzley have made contact with Jones on more than one
occasion, engaging him in a dialogue about the more technical aspects of his
research.

That's pretty damn clear, even you should get the fact that real engineers in
his own school have debunked it. And before you go off on an irrelevant
tangent, the Ira A. Fulton College of Engineering and Technology is indeed part
of BYU. http://www.et.byu.edu/
