202. Which is precisely how you would do it in demolition.

Sun Apr 7, 2013, 11:46 PM

Apr 2013

You can watch dozens of them like that...the blow the center a second or so before the rest to keep it going strait down....unless they want it to fall to the side then they blow that side first, the building starts to lean that way then the blow the rest....it is also why you first cut a notch in a tree you want to fell.

And you can show me no more perfect free fall of a building in any demolition video you can see on you tube....it was as near a perfect free fall as can be had...(and there is your visual evedence for you...cause that can be measured and was measured to be in free fall)

And your personal incredulity is not evidence ether...and I am sure it is even harder for you to believe that it was all a big lie and you were the sucker that believed it...but you did and it is.
But don't feel bad, I believed it too at first...but then I started to notice things and once I noticed it was full of lies and disinformation I admitted it sucked me in and fooled me and I changed....but for some the ego will not permit such a thing...but I have no shame about being fooled...I know full well I can be fooled and have been fooled before...and I don't think I am a bad person for it...trusting what people say is not a foolish thing...but continuing to believe it after you see it is a lie is.

And no jet fueled fire has ever melted steel ether. zeemike Apr 2013 #19

No has ever claimed that the steel was melted hack89 Apr 2013 #21

Basic physics?....lets get real. zeemike Apr 2013 #23

It was not the jet fuel producing that black smoke hack89 Apr 2013 #24

Yep...not the truther charge comes out. zeemike Apr 2013 #29

Why do you think we have fire codes and sprinklers for high rise buildings? hack89 Apr 2013 #31

So do I. zeemike Apr 2013 #41

If you knew this issue inside & out.... wildbilln864 Apr 2013 #162

You have zero experience. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #47

They just ignore it. zeemike Apr 2013 #118

Yawn. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #120

Sorry. I'm not seeing what you described at 7'00" KansDem Apr 2013 #133

6:58 precisely. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #134

He can do a chemical analysis by looking at dust? TrogL Apr 2013 #142

The dust contained iron spheres and nanoparticles zeemike Apr 2013 #146

and there's the logical fallacy TrogL Apr 2013 #141

but no one is usng that exact simple logic to claim demolition NoMoreWarNow Apr 2013 #207

Here's one TrogL Apr 2013 #210

The key there is "virtually free-fall speed" NoMoreWarNow Apr 2013 #212

Yes, there WAS a lot of fuel in the building. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #46

And none of it that would burn hot enough to melt aluminum much less steel zeemike Apr 2013 #53

Wrong. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #56

Well I have to be wrong. zeemike Apr 2013 #57

One and two did not fall exactly, precicely straight down. Thegonagle Apr 2013 #64

Nothing that large can be done precicely strait down. zeemike Apr 2013 #66

Gravity goes down. What other direction would you like it to go? TrogL Apr 2013 #143

Take a box zeemike Apr 2013 #149

Perhaps you should actually try that experiment William Seger Apr 2013 #154

Don't need to do the experiment. zeemike Apr 2013 #160

So, steel isn't just impervious to fire, it's infinitely strong? Wow! William Seger Apr 2013 #171

It does not have to be infinitely strong to resist the force. zeemike Apr 2013 #172

If you weren't even aware of the lateral force of the rotation William Seger Apr 2013 #173

I was not aware of lateral forces?.... zeemike Apr 2013 #174

"How the fuck do you know that" ? William Seger Apr 2013 #175

You are making me dizzy with all that going round and round... zeemike Apr 2013 #176

"when I present someone equally qualified" William Seger Apr 2013 #177

The hell I haven't zeemike Apr 2013 #181

You have presented nothing of substance William Seger Apr 2013 #183

The response is always the same...You have NO evidence. zeemike Apr 2013 #184

False analogy TrogL Apr 2013 #168

It was not an analogy. zeemike Apr 2013 #169

"basics of it does not change with scale" cpwm17 Apr 2013 #178

And yet WTC7 behaved the same as the towers. zeemike Apr 2013 #179

An object's strength is approximately proportional to its cross-sectional area cpwm17 Apr 2013 #189

"WTC7 behaved very differently than the towers" zeemike Apr 2013 #191

"Except that they all fell strait down into their footprint" cpwm17 Apr 2013 #204

Apples and oranges. And the basics do change with scale TrogL Apr 2013 #185

And WTC7 was not built that way at all zeemike Apr 2013 #188

WTC7 fell asymmetrically cpwm17 Apr 2013 #190

And that is also how they demolish a building built like that. zeemike Apr 2013 #193

All the scenes show WTC7 collapsing in silence, unlike demolitions cpwm17 Apr 2013 #200

Which is precisely how you would do it in demolition. zeemike Apr 2013 #202

Multiple engineering teams, multiple universities, multiple insurance analysts. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #216

No you are going with the official story. zeemike Apr 2013 #219

None of that is true. Not a word you just said is true about me. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #220

Well want to know what I am angry about? zeemike Apr 2013 #221

I note you still have nothing technical to offer about the collapse. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #222

Seriously what good would that do? zeemike Apr 2013 #223

You keep saying I ignored this and that. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #224

Well I guarantee you that I can address anything you say zeemike Apr 2013 #225

I showed you one of multiple videos that shows it. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #227

We were done long before this. zeemike Apr 2013 #228

More evasions. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #229

I will never retreat from the truth. zeemike Apr 2013 #230

But you haven't. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #231

You made the claim that the center columns did not fall not me. zeemike Apr 2013 #232

I provided you the evidence. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #233

Just curious but. zeemike Apr 2013 #237

The inner core only holds up a certain percentage of the building's mass. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #239

Causing 2 BILLION in damage to surrounding structures is a "Big Success" AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #234

Exactly correct. Stick one end of a bent coat hanger into a camp fire sometime. Thegonagle Apr 2013 #65

The FDNY reported a 20 story gouge in the side of WTC 7 hack89 Apr 2013 #158

early on after 9/11, the standard claim was that the jet fuel melted the steel columns NoMoreWarNow Apr 2013 #180

There were many false claims early on - that is why we have investigations hack89 Apr 2013 #182

you wrote no one ever claimed the steel was melted, which was false NoMoreWarNow Apr 2013 #206

It is complicated hack89 Apr 2013 #208

I don't think it is clear that there was no demolition at all. NoMoreWarNow Apr 2013 #211

BAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #22

Yep...stage two...make out like it is so crazy you just have to laugh it off. zeemike Apr 2013 #25

molten metal was aluminum or copper, not steel kiri Apr 2013 #37

Have you ever seen molten aluminum or copper? zeemike Apr 2013 #40

Yes, I have seen molten aluminum. Heat it another 100 degrees. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #44

Raise that aluminium another 100 degrees, and tell me what color it is. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #73

Well that is true enough. zeemike Apr 2013 #77

Sure. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #87

Your efforts to persist with pertinent facts is admirable psychopomp Apr 2013 #131

Prove it was molten steel and not copper, aluminium or any other number of things that do melt at AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #42

Well don't wait cause I can't prove shit to you. zeemike Apr 2013 #54

So every time someone like you says 'it was molten steel' AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #55

And you can prove it was molten aluminum then? zeemike Apr 2013 #59

There had to be melted aluminum in the rubble pile hack89 Apr 2013 #68

what made it hot enough to melt it? zeemike Apr 2013 #69

Not true. Plenty of aircraft have burned in open air down to the steel members AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #71

And those aircraft melted the aluminum into a pool of red hot metal? zeemike Apr 2013 #81

I have seen pooled aluminium from such fires. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #88

All the burning consumables in the rubble pile melted the aluminum hack89 Apr 2013 #80

The core columns were 4 inches thick steel. zeemike Apr 2013 #83

The thermite would be gone in seconds hack89 Apr 2013 #84

Termite is not an explosive. zeemike Apr 2013 #86

You're describing tens of thousands of tons of thermite in special containers to direct cutting flow AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #90

Do you know how silly that sounds? zeemike Apr 2013 #94

You did. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #99

So you reject the nano-thermite argument? hack89 Apr 2013 #93

Now where did you get that idea? zeemike Apr 2013 #95

Nano-thermite is a popular truther argument hack89 Apr 2013 #97

And it is also a common item used in demolision... zeemike Apr 2013 #101

No it is not. hack89 Apr 2013 #102

With thermite? A LOT, because you'd have to do it around the entire beam. And in some cases AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #91

A good point. We would see burning thermite during the collapse AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #92

... zeemike Apr 2013 #96

And? AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #100

Most of the supports for that building were in the center. zeemike Apr 2013 #104

WRONG. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #105

Holy fuck... zeemike Apr 2013 #108

It's at about 1:30 in this video. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #110

That is not the center columns you see zeemike Apr 2013 #117

Wrong tower. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #121

that doesn't even look like metal TrogL Apr 2013 #144

That is what termite looks like burning. zeemike Apr 2013 #148

Awesome! DelusionDestroyer Apr 2013 #156

My feelings exactly....n/t zeemike Apr 2013 #159

Same logic fallacy TrogL Apr 2013 #167

It is not a logical fallacy it is a piece of evidence. zeemike Apr 2013 #170

I don't need to. I'm attacking the logical flaws in your argument. TrogL Apr 2013 #186

Your evidence is that stuff falls strait down zeemike Apr 2013 #187

That's why there's so many false convictions TrogL Apr 2013 #192

Here's how to run a properly constructed conspiracy theory TrogL Apr 2013 #194

Here's a video the Truthers might like TrogL Apr 2013 #196

How often is a critical piece of evidence is what it looks like? zeemike Apr 2013 #195

The problem is, there are exceptions TrogL Apr 2013 #197

Well I will try again to make you understand me. zeemike Apr 2013 #198

Ok that's more like it TrogL Apr 2013 #201

Well the fact is... zeemike Apr 2013 #203

I've already told you I don't give a shit for the official story TrogL Apr 2013 #205

I don't need to prove it was aluminium. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #70

Well the evidence is all gone now. zeemike Apr 2013 #75

Your linked video uses the term 'molten metal' and 'molten steel' interchangeably. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #89

So? zeemike Apr 2013 #98

There are lots of ways to test it. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #103

Well I don't have to be a weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing. zeemike Apr 2013 #106

I am a welder as well. AtheistCrusader Apr 2013 #107

A single support collapse - after fires burned for seven hours hack89 Apr 2013 #128

Because it never before in the history of steel buildings happened? zeemike Apr 2013 #135
