(Those colors are consistant with thermite explosives.) Wrong again, I have used thermite and it burns white hot and not for weeks. Thermite burns at too slow a rate to be used for demolition of tall buildings. There were fires from broken gas lines. Yellow hot steel is no where near "molten." Forgive me, I gave the wrong color. (Jones paper gives the right information though.) Perhaps you can explain where the energy came from to cause steel (or iron) to get that hot. I will say it again: there were fires from broken gas lines. Remember how NYFD had to put them out before major excavation could begin?

Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Oh, thank you for correcting my poor spelling.

Where did the force come to *evaporate* steel? Heat alone can do that. Metal DOES boil and become a gas at high enough temperatures. Desiel fuel burns no where near hot enough to melt steel.

Instead of childishly insulting me, how about admitting that burning jet fuel does not get hot enough to melt steel? I might have had it been true. Besides, I have seen jet fuel/oxygen burn through steel. It's all a mater of how it's burned. Let me try an analogy you might be able to understand: a Coleman™ stove. If you pour the fuel on the ground and light it you get a relatively cool flame. Now run it through your stove. The gas generator is heated by the burner. The gas generator turns the liquid fuel into a gas. The gas form burns much hotter than the liquid form. The same was true at WTC, initially the fire was relatively cool until it started sucking air in from outside at a high rate, imagine a chimney effect, giving the fire a higher oxygen burn rate. This is essentially a variation of how a jet engine works. The exhaust gas temperatures are much higher than simple burning liquid jet fuel. Now imagine another analogy: a kerosene lamp. When you light the wick you get a low, dim flame. Put the chimney back and the air around the flame heats up. This sucks in more air at a higher rate than before which makes the flame burn hotter and brighter. Now the same jet fuel that can burn hot enough to melt steel can also burn cool enough to use in a cigarette lighter. Now you know where I used to get free lighter fluid many moons ago when I smoked. Why was there moltel metal and yellow-hot metal under the Towers (AND BUILDING 7) weeks after 9/11? (Those colors are consistant with thermite explosives.)

Remember how NYFD had to put them out before major excavation could begin? Okay, if that case, show me some information proving that gas fires can get hot enough to melt steel. See above. Besides have you ever heard of oxygen/acetylene welding? It melts steel. Acetylene is a hydrocarbon fairly close to natural gas in energy. Know what the difference between an oxygen/acetylene welding torch and an oxygen/acetylene cutting torch is? Without going into detail the cutting torch burns more efficiently generating a higher temperature which cuts the steel by vapourising it. Also, explain how the gas fires got hot enough to cause 47 steel columns to simultaniously sever. I never said it did. You asked about the hot steel AFTER the collapse, remember? See above.

Know what the difference between an oxygen/acetylene welding torch and an oxygen/acetylene cutting torch is? Without going into detail the cutting torch burns more efficiently generating a higher temperature which cuts the steel by vapourising it. How exactly does all this apply to the WTC? I answered your question how jet fuel can burn hot enough to melt steel. Please try to stay focused. Also, explain how the gas fires got hot enough to cause 47 steel columns to simultaniously sever. I never said it did. You asked about the hot steel AFTER the collapse, remember? See above. I asked you numerous times how the 47 massive steel columns got severed. In addition, how they got severed simultaneuosly, in both towers. I am still waiting for that answer. OK, try this on for size: they didn't. They didn't need to to cause the collapse as it happened. Also, why did the government hall away and destroy the evidence before it could be properly analyzed? I assume you mean "haul," now prove they did. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Oh, thank you for correcting my poor spelling. Here's your proof: BILL MANNING EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, FIRE ENGINEERING MAGAZINE: "$elling Out The Investigation" article quotes: "Such destruction of evidence shows the astounding ignorance of government officials to the value of a thorough, scientific investigation of the largest fire-induced collapse in world history." "Based on the incident's magnitude alone, a full-throttle, fully resourced, forensic investigation is imperative" "The federal government must scrap the current setup and commission a fully resourced blue ribbon panel to conduct a clean and thorough investigation of the fire and collapse, leaving no stones unturned." full article: http://tinyurl.com/3h5mk The article you cite is flat out wrong as is your suggestion the salvage was deliberately destroyed before being properly analyzed. The salvage was taken to Fresh Kills where each piece was forensically examined before a decision was made to release or not. There is not enough space nor requirement to keep every piece so that which has no probative value was sold off. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Oh really. Show me just one article from a reputable source verifying that. Just as soon as you start citing reputable sources for your claims. If you don't consider Fire Engineering a reputable source, then your thinking is not clear and there's nothing more I can do for you. Sorry I never said it wasn't. I just said the article was wrong. You have yet to provide reputable sources for any of your other claims. NOTE: Fire Engineering is not a "newsstand" magazine. It is a professional trade journal, for fire houses. I could assure you, the article is 100% correct. Then your assurance would be wrong. You also assured us Jones' paper was peer reviewed so your assurances mean nothing to me. I used to be a gunsmith and I found errors in trade journals. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

They do not have to be convincing, Then forgive us for not being convinced. since scientific laws cannot be changed, such as the Law of Increasing Entropy. Entropy applies here how? Are you an engineer or physicist? No. Are you? Evasion noted. How do explain THREE collapses at near free fall speed? First time in history from fire! There weren't any collapses at near free fall speed. They were considerably slower. Wrong. Towers collapsed in 10 seconds maximum. Building 7 was about 7 seconds. Do the math, the formula is D = 16T^2 Where did the energy come from to pulvarize concrete and office furniture into particles of fine powder? The mass of the floors above. The formula is F = MA. Look it up. Absurd and illogical. You cannot simply take a formula and plug the information in and expect an accurate answer. That's precisely what formulae are for. I assume you took some math and science in school. What do you think they were trying to teach you? Actually using simple formulae is exactly how it's done. It's done repeatedly or plugged into another formula or both. Calculus simplifies this, computers make it even easier. No matter how big the equation is it is made up of smaller parts that can be worked into or out of the picture. You have repeatedly told us you have no science background so don't tell us who do how it is done. What is "absurd and illogical" is your insisting you know better when you also say you don't. Actually, no it's not. When there are unknowns, they must also be taken into acount. In you believe otherwise, then your education is faulty. What do you think equations are for? Of course they are to solve for unknowns. I never said otherwise. Apparently you are as weak on communication as you are on science and math. You call me weak? You're the one using not looking at all the data Stop being so sensitive, lots of people are poor communicators and don't understand logic, math or science. Stop projecting how you feel about yourself onto me. Did you know Ke (kinetic energy)= 1/2mv^2 is an application of F = ma? Buildings NEVER collapsed in that manner before, EXCEPT from controlled demolitions. The 21 story Mexico City building did. No matter how many times you try to ignore it it did collapse that way. I haven't looked at every single building collapse in history, neither have you, so I can't say there are other examples or not. That building was no more than 3 stories tall. It was 21 stories before collapse. Anyone with eyes can see that. That tiny building did NOT pulvarise to dust. Neither did WTC. NO STEEL FRAMED HI RISE BUILDING HAS EVER COLLAPES FROM FIRE PERIOD! Prove it. When I find the link, I will provide it. (Despite the fact that you haven't provided ANY evidence of your own, other than the Mexico Ciy collapse that was not caused by fire.) YOU are the one ignoring the evidence. So stop projecting it onto me. No, you are altering the test here. You never specified collapse due to fire until now. Take a look at the "FACTS" post that I posted a number of times. Fire has NEVER caused a steel framed building to completely collapse. And definitely not straight down, at near free fall speed, with accompanying squibs and all! Where did the force come to *evaporate* steel? Heat alone can do that. Metal DOES boil and become a gas at high enough temperatures. Desiel fuel burns no where near hot enough to melt steel. So, I repeat: Where did the force come to *evaporate* steel? Jet fuel is NOT diesel. It is closer to kerosene. What keeps jet engines from melting is selection of materials and bypass air. Jet fuel CAN burn steel given enough oxygen and that's what happened. It is more than apparent you don't know what "force" means since you don't use it correctly here. Instead of childishly insulting me, how about admitting that burning jet fuel does not get hot enough to melt steel? I might have had it been true. Besides, I have seen jet fuel/oxygen burn through steel. It's all a mater of how it's burned. Let me try an analogy you might be able to understand: a Coleman™ stove. If you pour the fuel on the ground and light it you get a relatively cool flame. Now run it through your stove. The gas generator is heated by the burner. The gas generator turns the liquid fuel into a gas. The gas form burns much hotter than the liquid form. The same was true at WTC, initially the fire was relatively cool until it started sucking air in from outside at a high rate, imagine a chimney effect, giving the fire a higher oxygen burn rate. This is essentially a variation of how a jet engine works. The exhaust gas temperatures are much higher than simple burning liquid jet fuel. Now imagine another analogy: a kerosene lamp. When you light the wick you get a low, dim flame. Put the chimney back and the air around the flame heats up. This sucks in more air at a higher rate than before which makes the flame burn hotter and brighter. Now the same jet fuel that can burn hot enough to melt steel can also burn cool enough to use in a cigarette lighter. Now you know where I used to get free lighter fluid many moons ago when I smoked. Please provide a link where all that information can be verified by a physicist, or similar expert. You might know about NORAD, but your USAF background does not cover steel melting fires. Sorry. Why was there moltel metal and yellow-hot metal under the Towers (AND BUILDING 7) weeks after 9/11? (Those colors are consistant with thermite explosives.) Wrong again, I have used thermite and it burns white hot and not for weeks. Thermite burns at too slow a rate to be used for demolition of tall buildings. There were fires from broken gas lines. Yellow hot steel is no where near "molten." Forgive me, I gave the wrong color. (Jones paper gives the right information though.) Perhaps you can explain where the energy came from to cause steel (or iron) to get that hot. I will say it again: there were fires from broken gas lines. Remember how NYFD had to put them out before major excavation could begin? Okay, if that case, show me some information proving that gas fires can get hot enough to melt steel. See above. Besides have you ever heard of oxygen/acetylene welding? It melts steel. Acetylene is a hydrocarbon fairly close to natural gas in energy. Know what the difference between an oxygen/acetylene welding torch and an oxygen/acetylene cutting torch is? Without going into detail the cutting torch burns more efficiently generating a higher temperature which cuts the steel by vapourising it. How exactly does all this apply to the WTC? I answered your question how jet fuel can burn hot enough to melt steel. Please try to stay focused. Sorry, but you are delusional. Am I supposed to believe a retired USAF pilot over every scientist on the planet? Also, explain how the gas fires got hot enough to cause 47 steel columns to simultaniously sever. I never said it did. You asked about the hot steel AFTER the collapse, remember? See above. I asked you numerous times how the 47 massive steel columns got severed. In addition, how they got severed simultaneuosly, in both towers. I am still waiting for that answer. OK, try this on for size: they didn't. They didn't need to to cause the collapse as it happened. This structural engineer proves you wrong: Matthys Levy, Structural Engineer and Co Author of “Why Buildings Fall Down” Levy has stated in the past that fire brought down the WTC buildings on 9/11. But it is interesting that he also made a public statement saying the WTC collapses resembled controlled demolition. (Matthys Levy was/is a representative for Weidlinger Associates; a company hired by WTC leaseholder Larry Silverstein to help prove to his insurers that the failures of the Towers were the result of two separate terrorist attacks, and therefore allow Silverstein to double his insurance payout.) “It was the fire ... causing the failure of the steel columns and that caused the collapse” http://wcbs880.com/topstories/topsto...113150328.html "If you've seen many of the managed demolitions where they implode a building and they cause it to essentially to fall vertically because they cause all of the vertical columns to fail simultaneously, that's exactly what it looked like and that's what happened." Video: www.freepressinternational.com/discovery.html Now, stay focused and answer my question. Also, why did the government hall away and destroy the evidence before it could be properly analyzed? I assume you mean "haul," now prove they did. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Oh, thank you for correcting my poor spelling.
