Reply #40: Obvously they are different things, I never said they were the same.

Don't get your knickers in a twist.

Ground zero workers got sick early on from what I say is radiation poisoning (e.g. one guy said his teeth fell out), and years later hundreds of them have gotten cancer.

As far as the sounds:
1) we don't know what it exactly sounded like because we don't have good audio
2) any sounds I say are an explosion, you are likely to say is just from the building collapsing
