"A 47-story modern steel frame building does not fall in the fashion that Building 7 did on account of a few small, scattered fires in a few scattered locations on some of its lower floors."

I take it you somehow missed the lengthy explanation by various fire officials and building designers that it was MUCH more than that...along with pictures from different angles showing very BIG fires....and detailed examination of some ususual construction in the atrium of WTC7 where the failure of a specific type of truss caused failure of support structures. (A similar situation to what happened in the Towers)

You want to go read those, or do I have to find them again?


(Why, thank you, pdq...isn't it fortunate that my trances are more lucid than some folks are when awake!)
