		<description>There is an excellent DVD from NOVA called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/wtc/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Why The Towers Fell&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. I showed it to my Material Science class this past spring. It presents the WTC collapse from an engineering point of view, but is written at a not-too-technical level.

The result was clear - the towers fell because of the two airliners piloted by terrorists hitting the tower and not some &quot;conspiracy&quot;. I was surprised to learn that the collapse mechanism was different for each tower. The fact that the design critera used when the WTC was designed and built may not have been sufficient hardly seems the stuff upon which to base a conspiracy theory.</description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t know that you could use kerosene to replace jet fuel.  Someone should alert the airline industry.  =)) Jet fuel&#039;s octane level is what 180 percent???  Regular airplane fuel is 140 percent octane.  Jet fuel burns with much more intensity than kerosene.  More dumbassedness from the extremist hate Bush crowd.  When will these 8 year olds just quit.  How many more election cycles are these guys going to lose because of idiots like this before they learn???  - Lorica</description>

		<description>Still funny! Seems the Democrats now believe that 33% is a majority and requires a change of course in policy.

Is Lamont a ninny, a fool, or an idjit?</description>

		<description>- I don&#039;t recall the details, or the names of the Engineering firms/Individuals involved, but the History channel did an entire special on the WTC collapse. The process of failure was completely explained, and revolved around the &quot;cross supported box frame structure&quot; the towers used, which distributes the weight evenly and allows &quot;non-stepped&quot; building forms of the type used in the WTC construction, rather than the usual shapes you see in older sky scrapers. 

- The steel I-Beams did not have sufficient fire insulation to withstand the high temperatures of burning jet fuel, softened, and that in turn led to the collapse. It was covered in great detail, there is not a shred of &quot;mystery&quot;. But since it was not something that can be &quot;blamed&quot; on anyone, the morons in the fevor swamps of the left are forced to come up with idiotic conspiracy theories, and of course it just has to be Bush at the bottom of it, just like he controls hurricanes, and close enecounters with Asteroids. A lot of the crazies in thw Liberal camp are simply lunitics.

		<description>Engineering News Record has comprehensive coverage of the mechanisms of the collapse. While there have been some demonstrated deaths from asbestos, primarily the type used in ships and not buildings, there is little question that failure of fireproofing allowed the steel to heat above the weakening point. The original structural engineer wrote of the failure and possible corrections. Engineers LEARN from their failures. If only politicians did.</description>

Nice to have you join us. This experiment, and the tin foil hats at the Kos convention, and the Fahrenheit Movie, once again proves that the left wing is really out there.</description>

		<description>JAH - I am a scientist, and seeing this experiment is making my sides split with laughter. To put it in prospective, the dimbulb that contrived this &quot;experiment&quot; is on the level, scientifically, with a Wendy&#039;s night cook. 

- The best way I can describe the non-validity of this fever swamp Liberal nonsense, is to equate the whole foolish, clown-car prank, as akin to proving Einsteins theory of relativity with a kitchen match and a turkey baster. The more the Left talks the more they indicate a need for some serious mental health attention. They are as children, not to be taken seriously.

		<description>JAH: Thanks for becoming a teacher! And you are right about these moonbat claims. It is all fury and rage and no real science or engineering.

After Reagan won the 1980 presidential election there was a wacko conspiracy theory floating around that then Vice-Presidential candidate George H.W. Bush secretly negotiated with Iranian militants to delay the release of the hostages held in Iran until after the election. Eventually a Democratic Congress decided to &quot;investigate&quot; these claims in an effort simply to embarrass Republicans - all at taxpayer expense.

If Democrats take over Congress in 2006, I predict that there will be an effort to impeach the current President Bush. This claim about the WTC will be thrown in to create an aura of malfeasance necessary to gloss over the fact that no grounds for impeachment exist. Democrats normally try to make up for in bluster what they lack in facts.</description>

		<description>In my former life, before I became a high school physics teacher, I was an aerospace engineer. In addition to teaching at the high school level I am also an adjunct instructor in the engineering department at a major university. Now let me caveat what I am about to say with the fact that most of my experience in engineering was with aerodynamics but early in my career I did work in structures for about 2 years. So while I am not an highly experienced structural engineer I can say with certainty one thing,

That may be the stupidest thing I have ever seen!!!!!
=))

Now there is a place for simple experiments, for a real example of how to do one see Richard Feynman&#039;s experiment with the o-ring material in the Challenger hearings, but obviously this man is no Richard Feynman. You actually have to know something about science or engineering to do a good simple experiment with results that actually mean something.</description>

		<description>Once again, confirmation that the left are basically immature little children. Mommy he was mean to me! Make him stop! All while at the same time they go around constantly kicking the ankles of their elders and whining and insulting everyone they don&#039;t agree with, spewing the most vile and obnoxious insults. 

The left:

Are we there yet? He&#039;s looking at me! He&#039;s hitting me! That&#039;s not faaaiiir!

Children who think they should be given the reins of power, God help us if they get them.</description>
