19. Ok, ok, ok! Fact-checking is the way to go with this topic. I'm wrong. You're right.
I'm attempting to find the Chicago Tribune page for this excerpt, but here it is for now:

Dr. Gene Corley also investigated the Waco disaster for the U.S. government, as the Chicago Tribune reported:

"Many of his fellow structural engineers were stunned when the twin towers of the World Trade Center crashed to the ground on Sept. 11. But not W. Gene Corley, the suburban Chicago structural engineer who is heading the federal investigation into the collapse.

"Corley, senior vice president at Construction Technology Laboratories in north suburban Skokie, is an old hand when it comes to figuring out why buildings fall down. His roster of past investigations includes the fatal 1993 fire that occurred during the FBI's raid of the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas; the 1995 bombing and collapse of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City; and the 1999 collapse of a construction crane at Milwaukee's Miller Park. You might even call him a master of disaster, though he's far too reserved to use such a jaunty, self-promoting term."

Here is a Chicago Tribune article from Dec 5, 2001, describing the other investigations (funny how the government always goes to the same people for every investigation) Dr. Gene Corley was involved in.

So farrrrr...I'm thinkin' your Dr. Gene Corley isn't as credible as you think he iiiissss....

But, I'll keep trying to find something about our Dr. Corley that proves me wrong and you right while you address what I've already given you.
