But it is NOT clear exactly what Silverstein meant by his cryptic remark, and in 6 years, it has not been confirmed!!! The 'speculators' play the tape, then go on to make, ... ahem...'logical assumptions' about what that tape implies. An inordinate amount of weight is put on the word "pull". The theory is that **FIREFIGHTERS** wired and blew that building, while it was ON FIRE, in a VERY short time...while they had many other things to deal with. That would have taken LOTS of effort by many firefighters,(assuming they even HAD explosives), and yet I don't see any evidence that any of them have admitted to doing this.
Did Silverstein get money from insurance? Yeah...I guess so....does THAT prove he ordered demolition? Hardly...
(um...Dick Greenhaus...I heard it: expert...."ex" meaning 'has been" "spurt" meaning 'drip under pressure'.)
(yeah...I know...I said I wouldn't do any more of this....I'm TRYING...)
