The yellow color implies a molten-metal temperature of approximately 1000 oC, Problem is structural steel has a melting point of around 1400 deg C so whatever it was it was NOT molten steel.

Please give your professional opinion on these excerpts from Jones' paper (be sure to watch the video links too): Those who wish to preserve fundamental physical laws as inviolate may wish to take a closer look. Consider the collapse of the South WTC Tower on 9- 11: http://www.911research.com/wtc/evide..._collapse.mpeg Top ~ 30 floors of South Tower topple over. What happens to the block and its angular momentum? We observe that approximately 30 upper floors begin to rotate as a block, to the south and east. They begin to topple over, as favored by the Law of Increasing Entropy. The torque due to gravity on this block is enormous, as is its angular momentum. But then – and this I’m still puzzling over – this block turned mostly to powder in mid-air! How can we understand this strange behavior, without explosives? Remarkable, amazing – and demanding scrutiny since the US government-funded reports failed to analyze this phenomenon. But, of course, the Final NIST 9-11 report “does not actually include the structural behavior of the tower after the conditions for collapse initiation were reached.” (NIST, 2005, p. 80, fn. 1; emphasis added.) Indeed, if we seek the truth of the matter, we must NOT ignore the data to be observed during the actual collapses of the towers, as the NIST team admits they did. But why did they do such a non-scientific procedure as to ignore highly-relevant data? The business smacks of political constraints on what was supposed to be an “open and thorough” investigation. (See Mooney, 2005.) So I with others call for an open and thorough investigation. I hope the international community will rise to the challenge. The field is wide open for considering the alternative hypothesis outlined here, due to its neglect by studies funded by the US government. ----------------------- Keith, each Tower had 47 massive steel beams. Please take a few minutes and search Jones' paper for the term "core" and read the information (as it pertains to the 47 massive steel columns): http://www.physics.byu.edu/research/energy/htm7.html Also look through this paper by a Mechanical Engineering Professor: http://www.911blogger.com/2006/03/me...ssor-from.html Finally, how does one explain the near free fall collapse of WTC 7, which was NOT hit by an airplane? http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/IM...demolition.mpg The following are ten quotes from the WTC Task Force Interviews "Oral Histories" as published in the New York Times. See here for many more quotes, and links to the Times website http://forums.bluelemur.com/viewtopic.php?t=4820 FDNY CAPTAIN: "Somewhere around the middle of the world trade center, there was this orange and red flash coming out. Initially it was just one flash. Then this flash just kept popping all the way around the building and that building had started to explode. The popping sound, and with each popping sound it was initially an orange and then a red flash came out of the building and then it would just go all around the building on both sides as far as I could see. These popping sounds and the explosions were getting bigger, going both up and down and then all around the building." FDNY BATTALION CHIEF: "It looked like it was a timed explosion" FDNY ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER: "I saw a flash flash flash and then it looked like the building came down." Q. "Was that on the lower level of the building or up where the fire was?" A. "No, the lower level of the building. You know like when they demolish a building, how when they blow up a building, when it falls down? That's what I thought I saw" FDNY DEPUTY COMMISSIONER: "We looked up at the building straight up, we were that close. All we saw was a puff of smoke coming from about 2 thirds of the way up. Some people thought it was an explosion. I don't think I remember that. I remember seeing, it looked like sparkling around one specific layer of the building. I assume now that that was either windows starting to collapse like tinsel or something. Then the building started to come down. My initial reaction was that this was exactly the way it looks when they show you those implosions on TV." FDNY FIRE MARSHAL: "I thought it was exploding, actually. That’s what I thought for hours afterwards, that it had exploded or the plane or there had been some device on the plane that had exploded, because the debris from the tower had shot out far over our heads" FDNY ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER: "I should say that people in the street and myself included thought that the roar was so loud that the explosive - bombs were going off inside the building." "As I said I thought the terrorists planted explosives somewhere in the building. That's how loud it was, crackling explosive" FDNY CHIEF: "You could see the windows pop out just like in the picture, looked like a movie. I saw one floor of windows pop out, like poof, poof. I saw one and a half floors pop out. It looked almost like an explosion. The whole top was teetering, and I really thought just the top of the building was falling off." FDNY FIREFIGHTER: "I was distracted by a large explosion from the south tower and it seemed like fire was shooting out a couple of hundred feet in each direction, then all of a sudden the top of the tower started coming down in a pancake." Q. "where was the fire? Like up at the upper levels where it started collapsing?" A. "It appeared somewhere below that. Maybe twenty floors below the impact area of the plane. I saw it as fire and when I looked at it on television afterwards, it doesn't appear to show the fire. It shows a rush of smoke coming out below the area of the plane impact. The reason why I think the cameras didn't get that image is because they were a far distance away and maybe I saw the bottom side where the plane was and the smoke was up above it." FDNY FIREFIGHTER: "I just remember there was just an explosion. It seemed like on television they blow up these buildings. It seemed like it was going all the way around like a belt, all these explosions" FDNY FIREFIGHTER: "There was an explosion at the top of the Trade Center and a piece of Trade Center flew across the West Side Highway and hit the Financial Center." ... "the south tower from our perspective exploded from about midway up the building." ... "At that point a debate began to rage because the perception was that the building looked like it had been taken out with charges" |

A qualified engineer would know that steel framed buildings do not completely collapse from fire. Never. Name one who agrees with your little claim, there. You see, the problem with that is that steel frame buildings generally aren't *allowed* to catch on fire and keep burning without some fire suppression going on. The WTC (1, 2 and 7) are nearly unique cases, in which two of them had their fireproofing stripped off through plane impacts and the other had a big tank of diesel fuel sitting in the middle of it, and had some damage from the tremors of the first two collapsing. That "near free fall speed" is what pretty much any tall building falls at once it starts to go. |

No 1: It was thermite or some other kind of cutter-explosives. It's the ones who believe the government's nonsense that say it was fire. No 2: your comment about "ample evidence on collapses of steel structures" has absolutely zero relevance on what I'm talking about. Steel Framed Skyscrapers Do NOT Completely Collapse From Fire Period! What is so hard for people to understand about that statement? It never happened before! NEVER!!! IT IS A FACT!!! According to you pilots it could happen on 9/11 THREE times? My God! WTC 7 was ***NOT*** hit by an airplane! Is that understood? WTC 7 collapsed near symetrically, near free fall speed! WTC 7 had smoke puffs going up the wall just as it started to collapse! The WTC 7 leaseholder said (on camera) that it was pulled! The leaseholder bought a 99 yr lease on the entire WTC complex just six weeks before 9/11! He wasn't in his North Tower office on 9/11 due to a "doctors appointment"! His lawyers successfully sued to get TWICE the payout claiming it was two separate attacks! The insurance company's structural engineer said (on camera) that the way the vertical columns in the Towers severed simultaneously was just like controlled demolitions! The WTC 7 fire alarm was put into test mode the morning of 9/11! Each Twin Tower was designed withstand the impact on a FULLY LOADED 707! The 767s on 9/11 were UNDERBOOKED! An executive in the WTC Construction Management Company said (on camera) in his opinion the Towers could withstand MULTIPLE 707 crashes! He said a plane crashing into the Towers is the same as a pencil puncturing a window screen -- it does NOTHING! It is time to Wake UP! and face the TRUTH |
