And there are still morons who manage to doubt it...
true, but it takes more than two brain cells to read the NCSTAR report and find the numbers after being told where to look.psikeyhackr wrote:It should not be difficult to find the tons of steel and tons of concrete on each level in that case.

Oh sure, the empty claim that it is in the NCSTAR1 report. So print the quote and specify the page.

The Twin Towers Affair is a much bigger deal than the Twin Towers Event.
It very annoying to claim things that cannot be proven, but I woke up on 9/12/01 thinking the Twin Tower Collapses were not possible. I wondered why I was thinking that. I spent the next two weeks contemplating the physics of skyscrapers.
The Laws of Physics do not care about Americans or their freedoms. How do skyscrapers hold themselves up against gravity? Every level must support the weight of all of the levels above. How much steel was on level 95 compared to what was on level 5? Shouldn't that be easy to look up after 20 years?
Where is there a table with the tons of steel and tons of concrete on each and every level of the North Tower? And the height of each level. How does one compute the potential energy without that data? How could the smaller, lighter, weaker portion of the tower fall straight down, and totally destroy a mass six times its own size that had to get stronger and heavier all of the way down?
In 20 seconds?
But oh, we don't have that data. The NIST did not raise the issue in 10,000 pages. The NIST told us that "global collapse ensued" after analyzing the airliner impacts and fires to death. By 9/30/01 I assumed that the collapses of the towers would be analyzed and resolved in a few months. In a few months the steel had been shipped out of the country. I didn't know about that. I didn't, and still don't pay much attention to the news. Too much idiotic drivel.
I did not begin discussing 9/11 on the internet until 2005. So here we are 20 years after the Event and the Affair rolls on.
We need more STEM trained people to grow the economy and ignore physics. STEM people cannot figure out planned obsolescence either.
What is Demand Side Depreciation?
I spent more time on this before 2005:

Greg the Grouper wrote:I'm no master of physics, nor am I someone that's spent really any amount of time discussing this topic. Is that comment about 20 seconds meant to suggest that the time frame is shorter than one might expect? And if so, wouldn't a shorter time frame be indicative of a greater application of force, and therefore a greater potential to destroy the lower floors? Wouldn't you also expect a cascade effect, similar to dominos, where the top floor destroys the infrastructure of the floor below it, and then both those floors collapse on the next floor, and so on?
Go on, tell me about your middle school physics and how I'm not competent.

Then there is Newton's 2nd Law of 20 stories vs 90 stories supposedly crushing each other.

Why would I have to jump through any of your illiterate hoops? Noether's Theorem experienced no inconvenience whatsoever during the collapse of any buildings.
What this bollocks tells me is that you wouldn't even know what a cogent objection looked like, because this ain't it, not by a long chalk. You clearly know fuck all about physics at any level, and don't even possess the structural engineering competence to understand where the strength of rigid frames comes from, probably even now I just painted a big fucking sign on it.
