333. The good news is that after 300+ posts, we are finally communicating somewhat more directly--
the bad news is that now *you* are making assertions without any supporting evidence.

How do you know a drop of a few inches leads to no collapse but six feet does?

Also, what is so fuzzy about saying the floor trusses were an obvious weak link?

"Yet you are, to put it charitably, struggling to come up with an argument that the towers might not have collapsed without controlled demolition, never mind that they obviously could not have."

The only reason I seem to be struggling with this is because you have been exceedingly grudging about conceding even fairly obvious points-- such as the floor supports being a weak link, or a 12 foot free fall drop of the complete upper block favors global collapse more than a 6 foot drop from a tilted upper block where one side is still attached.
