Gee. Thank you all for the well thought out responses. I realize the point made in the initial article is rather biased, and that's why I was seeking clarification. And you people sure cleared up the issue for me. Tell me, are you all philosophers or something? I'll have to take your responses to my department head and see what he has to say. Offhand, though, I can see that a larger issue has been brought to light here--does catspaw49 rotate AROUND the thumb in his ass, or is it the thumb that rotates?

I personally believe the 19 men with boxcutters survived the crashes, fell through the roof of WTC7 and hacked away at that building until it fell. They found one of the passports of the Al Qeada Islamo-fascists on top of the smoking rubble of the WTC, and the paper document was a bit scorced but it survived the fireball and pulverization, so that's proof that at least ONE of the hijackers leapt to safety from the plane.

Thanks again for all the help on that Newtonian crap. I'm so glad we don't have to study that anymore.
