Garcia’s analysis of the WTC thermodynamics then begins with the removal of all of the fireproofing from all the steel, an unsupported assumption at best. In any case, to consider temperature increases, an honest scientist would take the materials and the energy sources involved, and perform some straightforward calculations to evaluate the available energies. In the case of the WTC towers, we know from FEMA and NIST that about 4,500 gallons of jet fuel were available to feed the fires on the impact and failure floors, giving an energy value of approximately 600 GJ, considering moderate combustion. And we know the buildings had a fire load of 20 Kg/m^2, which would provide an energy value of about 500 GJ for the furnishings on several floors in the vicinity of the failure zones.(3) These realistic values give a total energy of about 1,100 GJ that would be available to heat one building, but Garcia uses 8,000 GJ and 3,000 GJ, values NIST created through their deceptive, pretzel-logic manipulations.
Maybe this incredible energy yield means that Garcia and NIST have solved the energy crisis, and we can end the 9/11 Wars and bring our troops home. If not, maybe Garcia can help us understand where all that additional energy came from, instead of just spouting off with so much arrogance. We really would appreciate it.
In the absence of this explanation, Garcia proceeds to apply this tremendous amount of mysterious energy to the heating of the materials involved. But instead of taking the quantities of steel, concrete, and other materials into account (don’t forget the aircraft itself) Garcia helps us to “expand our range of rationality” by dumbing-down the scenario using a “fictitious homogenized” substance called “ironcrete”. Garcia muddies the water with his ironcrete because, although he doesn’t give the calculations, this allows him to use a sleight of hand, giving a value for specific heat that is less than that of any of the starting materials. Few would notice, but this means that, in support of Garcia’s purposes, it takes less heat to increase the temperature of each kilogram of ironcrete than it would to increase the temperature of the steel and concrete used in the WTC towers. Since he’s using eight times more energy than could have been available anyway, this minor scam doesn’t seem worth the effort.
But note that Garcia also suggests all the available heat became trapped in his ironcrete, thereby assuming that no hot gases left the impact zone, that no heat escaped by conduction, and that the steel and concrete had an unlimited amount of time to absorb all the heat. He also conveniently ignores all the other materials in the aircraft and the buildings, including the Aluminum, all the office furnishings, and the vast amount of air and water vapor, all of which would be heated too, absorbing energy. Considering his quantum mechanical collapse dynamics and magical fireproofing loss, these distributions of heat energy may not seem so strange, that is until Garcia needs that energy back to support his later claims of melting Aluminum, plastic “cracking” to create dense pockets of hydrocarbon vapors that mimic high-explosives, and even a replay of the beginnings of life on earth (no kidding).

This guy sounds like a joker.
Reminds me of that guy, Greening was it..? who liked to collect atoms from the environment so they could end up where he needed them to explain excess sulpher?
This guy Garcia just moves the heat around where he needs it, according to the article. Very scientific, if you believe in magic.
What Garcia's study really suggests it that their was excess heat. That would account for where Garcia sees heat acting to take down the building. His magic doesn't explain the excess heat, though.
Which is why some super thermite substance has been proposed as a possible source of that heat. Because since early on, one readily observable fact is that there was some excess heat in the absence of a good explainable source.
Because it better explains the heat surplus, it's a better theory than plane, kerosine, and fire.
Even if it's wrong.
But there does seem to be a lot of evidence of surplus heat.
I mean either the kerosine burned down the elavator shaft 80 stories and got burned up there or it stayed up on the floor where it was hit and almost all of it disappated in the initial fire ball.
You can't be moving all that heat around and try to have it all end up back being used to weaken steel cores.
You can't have your cake and eat it too. There was excess heat from some unknown source and it showed up in the ariel photography as well as in the eyewitness reports of molton metal; It was evidenced in the massive amounts of water pumped and the pulverization. There was too much unexplained energy released considering the fire floors and duration of the fire events, and Garcia makes that clear. Just ignor his magical heat transfer when and where it's needed and one can see how much heat there had to be to get anywhere near where Garcia needs it to be.
