Congress rolled over for the White House(again), and did not preform it's Constitutional Duty. 11 years ago we were hoodwinked by the NeoCons and the Controlled Media. You can't cover up the fact that Explosives were used on all 3 buildings that collapsed on September 11. Many people still do not Realize Building 7 dropped in a free fall demolition at 5 thirty in the Afternoon in a classic Controlled Fashion. It is way past time to reconcile the Lies. The Tide will turn our way now as the Financial and Political Systems implode like building 7. This is what

No, if they don't test for explosives it is a cover up and they won't be able to remove the doubt. And there is much more evidence for the conspiracy than there is against it.

So then you also believe they should check for Godzilla concrete, correct? Do you believe that is also a cover up?

The problem with the logic of the paper you provided earlier was that the calculation of the kinetic energy assumed the top of the building was one huge mass. Even if this were true such a huge amount of kinetic energy would have destroyed the section immediately below it thereby dissipating the energy and stopping there. Otherwise would violate Newtons third.

Now I know you never studied physics even in grade school. So the only two possibilities that exist are total destruction of each floor or no destruction at all? Why is that? So show me the calculations that make it impossible for some pulverizing to occur and the bulk of the mass continuing to fall.

I don't even understand what you are saying. What huge mass? That doesn't make sense. The calculations are based on the actual building mass. Each floor added to the mass one at a time. So you are saying that the first x floors fell creating such a huge mass so that the y floors below were totally pulverized which should dissipated the energy and stopped the x floor mass from falling. Huh? Stopped where, in mid air? You call that logic?

Wow you guys make up some really funny shit.

Nope. Newton's Third.

Aren't you leaving out a little math, there?

I can't tell if you're serious or if you're trolling now. That's about the second most ridiculous thing I've ever heard anyone say. If I make a house of cards and drop a bowling ball on it, it doesn't arrest the fall of the bowling ball. Obviously there are calculations you need to make about the mass and energy involved, which you just completely blew off.

What you say is pretty close to true, The mass would have stopped if the supporting columns were still there.

Aha, I can see the problem, you don't have a clue how the wtc was constructed. The floors didn't sit on top of the columns like a traditional high rise. The columns only held up the ends of the top bar of the floor trusses. Break or bend the last couple inches of the trusses the floors are in free fall. Not all that much mass is required to do that. Once the columns lose the lateral support of the floor trusses they collapse also. I thought you said you read the NIST report. It's well detailed in there.

"With a value of 1200 MJ for Ed we are finally in a position to evaluate the energy balance
equation:
½ Mn vi ^2 = ½ [Mn + M1] vf^ 2 + Ed
Thus, setting Mn to 5.8 ? 107 kg, M1 to 0.39 ? 107 kg and with vi equal to 8.52 m/s, we readily determine that the first impacted floor of WTC 1 moved off with a velocity vf equal to 5.4 m/s; that is 3.1 m/s or 36 % slower than the impact velocity. Nevertheless, this reduced velocity was more than sufficient to guarantee a self-sustaining global collapse of WTC 1."

Like I said before, the actual facts violate Newton's third.

Your own source shows that the collapse should have slowed down a little upon encountering each new floor. In the actual event the tower collapse speed increased as if there were NO floors below.

No it doesn't say that at all. Read more carefully, this only deals with the first floor to collapse, it doesn't say anything at all about subsequent floors. Even so, why would it slow each floor rather than accelerate? The least mass and energy is the first floor to fall, after that the mass increases and increases knocking each subsequent floor away more easily. Your statement makes no sense.

I still haven't seen your explanation of exactly how this violates newton's third law. If an object falls, knocks a second object loose and they both continue to fall it's not a violation or even all that relevant to newtons' third law.

If you were doing experiments on newtons laws in a college level physics course I would ask for my tuition back.

Wouldn't King Kong be more likely?

I think we can eliminate King Kong and Godzilla as the perpetrators of this dastardly deed as there would have been video.

There is no video of explosive charges, so that can be ruled out as well. You have only pointed out a couple puffs of smoke and a low rumbling sound heard when the audio is enhanced; the deafening sounds of explosions and numerous quick, bright flashes that are seen in videos of actual controlled demolitions are not present in any video.

By your own words, controlled demolition is ruled out. Thanks for proving my point.

Bowling ball? House of cards?

Are you trying to say that if you had a house of cards 110 storys high and lifted the top 15 stories and then dropped them the whole thing would drop in a burning pile?

The absurdity of your example makes me think you are not seriously looking at the evidence.

No, why would the house of cards burn? The WTC burned because a plane full of fuel flew into it. It didn't START burning after it fell. But yeah, if I doused a card house with kerosene and lit a match to it, it would burn.

I'm starting to think you don't even have the slightest clue what happened that day.

The process of knocking the second object (floor) loose would slow it down somewhat. The process of knocking each of the subsequent floors loose would slow the collapse below free fall speed.

How long did you say you have been defending the truth of 9/11?

So then this video violates the laws of physics? How did the model fall down, then?

Trust me, this does not have massive bolts in it. Therefore, and only therefore, does it not defy the laws of physics.

This is a joke, but it is a sad one, homeboy.

He didn't say anything about bolts. He simply said that each floor would slow the fall and slow the collapse beyond freefall speed. The model tower in my video did not weigh half a million tons like the twin towers did. Obviously, having a structure in place does not necessarily prevent it from collapsing. So we can rule out this theory that simply because there were floors below the collapse, that they would automatically arrest the fall of the towers.

You obviously are incapable of envisioning in your mind the scale we are talking about. If you shrunk the WTC to the size of the model tower, the steel beams would be like toothpicks, and the "massive bolts" would be like the head of a pin. You are trying to apply your layman's "gut feeling" to matters of physics and engineering, in which you have no training or experience. Things may "seem" or "feel" a certain way to you, but that is only because you are unable to grasp the immense forces that were in play. 500,000 tons is just a number to you; you obviously don't understand how much force that is when it is in motion. A bolt is not going to stop hundreds of thousands of tons of weight falling on it. The WTC was designed to hold up the weight of the building, not to arrest the fall of that much weight when it's already in motion.

The joke here is your refusal to listen to reason.

Convince me by debating the evidence!

You have been shown evidence throughout this thread. You chose to ignore it in favour of posting up another Youtube video. You aren't looking for the truth. You've already decided what you believe and that is evidenced by your posts in this thread. Personally, I don't believe for a minute that you just stumbled across that website a couple of weeks ago. Your posts smack of leading. That is not the approach of someone interested in both sides of the story. You come across as extremely disingenuous - oh yes, i'm just interested in the facts, I just want to have a debate etc. etc., but all you do is post up incredibly predictable videos without analysis or any real consideration of their content - look at that 2 puffs of smoke video, or the one trying to show that the fire at WTC7 was small, etc. etc. They are simply wrong. There just isn't anything to debate with regard to the videos being posted up by you and your fellow conspirators.

I could say I'm a quantum physicist with 3 PhDs for all the difference it makes. After all, this is the internet. It doesn't matter where I live or what I do. It's irrelevant to the issue at hand. Perhaps I can ask you what your purpose was in trying to big yourself up.

The vast majority of engineers do not agree with the kooks on that website. Also, the "engineers" on the website are not necessarily structural engineers. Also, none of their credentials appear to have been checked by anyone. We have a known case of someone signing up his dog as an engineer on that site. So we have no idea how many of them, if any, even exist or are actual engineers at all.

So you are siding with a very dubious, very small minority of all the engineers in the world, whereas I am siding with the vast majority of engineers who believe what we saw in the videos - planes hitting buildings, the buildings burning, and the buildings failing AT THE SPOT WHERE THEY WERE DAMAGED BY THE PLANES, is what actually happened.

So, are YOU saying you understand more than the vast majority of structural engineers?

Everybody remembers 9/11, but does anyone remember what happened 9/10? Let me remind everybody. 9/10 was the day when, the then secretary of defense D Rumsfeld, on national TV reveiled that the pentagon couldn't account for $2.3 TRILLION!!!! Oddly, the following day the pentagon was hit by and "airplane". The accounting quaters were hit, several mostly civilians, were killed, and the records conveniently destroyed!

On the contrary from the "dubious" site:

"Most architects and engineers have never been presented with the scientific evidence of controlled demolition. In addition, most of those who take the time to examine this evidence acknowledge that the official story can’t be true. As of the date of this publication, there are almost 1,700 architects and engineers who openly support the findings of AE911Truth vs. only a few dozen who have openly supported the NIST WTC reports. Even so, in the end, the evidence stands on its own, regardless of how many professionals are aware of it. "

On the contrary of what? What exactly do you think a conspiracy website is going to post up? What do you think this demonstrates? I've read your posts. You aren't being honest about where you are coming from. You aren't new to this. And you aren't interested in debate. At least bgamall is straight up with his opinion.

This would be true in a pancake collapse but the videos make it obvious that the building was blown out from the top down. Most of the mass of the building was ejected outward and would not be available to destroy the intact building beneath.

Which video are you talking about now? And you are saying most of the mass was ejected outward? What makes you say that? Because there were dust clouds? Haven't you and bgamall been demanding an explanation for how a building can collapse into its own footprint? Now you're saying most of the debris was ejected away from the building. Which is it?

"Most architects and engineers have never been presented with the scientific evidence of controlled demolition. In addition, most of those who take the time to examine this evidence acknowledge that the official story can’t be true.

Obviously a lie. The site claims 7 million hits, and says 1700 A&Es plus 15,000 petition signers believe in the controlled demolition. So out of 7 million who "reviewed the evidence", only 16,700 believe that the official story isn't true. That's only 0.002%. That's quite a ways from "most".

With 7 million hits, for them to suggest that their message isn't getting out, is absurd. We've seen their evidence; it's just that we think it's bullshit.

Boy, you really are obtuse. The concrete godzilla was a rhetorical device I used to demonstrate the absurdity of your point of view, i.e. you wanted to test for thermite even though the elements that would be tested for are already present in the building materials. I was showing how ridiculous that is by suggesting we test for concrete, even though concrete is already present, to determine if a concrete godzilla attacked the building. It wasn't supposed to be a "good" story; it was supposed to show how ridiculous your point of view is.

But your scenario was not rhetorical at all. You genuinely stated that you would find that believable.
