then why did the leaseholder say....


"I remember getting a call from the, er, fire department commander, telling
me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the fire, and
I said, 'We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to
do is pull it.' And they made that decision to pull and we watched the
building collapse


Because he had decide to abandon any attempt to preserve the
building and was willing to pull any efforts to do so.

WTC 7, a 47 story steel framed building built in 1987, collapsed
completely, near freefall speed.


That's how they tend to collapse.

WTC 7 housed the Secret Service's LARGEST field office

Would the SS have an office in a building that could collapse like that?


Yes. They aren't civil engineers ya know. I'd bet several dollars
that
none of the occupants knew of the Rubegoldberg foundation structure
that building sat upon.
