huh?? I stated that if the intent of the gov't was to make a building collapse w/ controlled demolition while having it look like the result of a terrorist attack, wouldn't they talk to those experts and find out how the building should fall? So then they could plant their explosives or whatever appropriately.

but no according to you and others whom I'm sure have no solid background in the area think they left that part of the plan out and just blew it up. since you're saying (with your all your expertise) that the building should've fallen another way.

now that i think about it when there's a controlled demolition w/ explosives, the building doesn't fall the exact INSTANT the explosives are set off which is what you're saying must have happened or else it'd be pretty damn obvious. furthermore when I listened to the 911 recordings I didn't hear any explosives going off just the rumble of a building begining to collapse and the screaming voices of those about to die.

You've obviously never heard the numerous 911 calls and firefighter radio tapes where several people report hearing secondary explosions just before the buildings came down. And believe me...firefighters are not the type to mistake the sound of an explosion.

no I heard the damn building going down myself.

but just ignore the other stuff I said.

Well...as for the rest of it, the government goes out of it's way to try and recruit some of the smartest people it can find for anything but upper level positions. Upper level positions go to morons or a friend-of-a-friend kinda thing. Is it really so hard to imagine that the government could have gotten it done without going outside for help? I mean...really?

You keep saying you have "common sense" (which apparently does away with the need for logic), but how could anything be more common sense than saying that two given structures struck in different manners will fall in different ways? Or to say that such a collapse will look significantly different than a controlled demolition?
