41. it's possible?
Nah! WTC were designed and built in an era when the US was thumbing it's nose at the world ... sticking it where it didn't belong ..... thumping it's chest ... fearless ... proclaiming itself the best ... racing to the moon ... building super highways, massive bridges, incredible stadiums ... airports, sea terminals ... super-blocks of public housing projects, and huge office complexes .... WTC is just one example ... a symbol ... of that era ... of that fearlessness ... of that arrogance. Those towers symbolized greatness ... represented overcoming all odds ... showed everyone .... EVERYONE where the real center of the world was.

You suggest the WTC construction process included explosives ... If you're right ... then the biggest ... the best ... the symbol of greatness ... fearlessness ... the center of the world ... was built with expectations of failure. You're not right.
