42. I grew up in earth quake country (Santa Cruz, CA) and I saw
buildings collapse from the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, but while a whole lot of building were damaged or destroyed, not one fell into it's own footprint. They fell over, they partially collapsed, they leaned, but none fell into it's foot print.

Building #7 was a block away from the towers.

And even if there was a big wind force, it should have pushed #7 away from it, not dropped it in it's own foot print.

There is no evidence besides the photo/video evidence, the recorded sound, and the anecdotal evidence because all the material at the site was quickly carted off without anyone having the opportunity to inspect it.

Personally, it looks to me to be consistent with a controlled demolition. Whether that's actually the case or not, I'm not in a position know.

I guess it comes down to believing the powers that be or believing my own lying eyes :) given the track record for honesty of the powers that be, I know better than to put a whole lot of trust in what they say about anything.
