137. The vast majority of buildings
that we get to see demolished are not that tall. This was a 47 story building. Its foundations had just been hammered by the Twin Towers crumbling into the ground. 5 other buildings were destroyed. There is no need for charges to bring this one down. Your increduality is based on your lack of experience with demolition. This does not constitute evidence. It simply constitutes your's and my horror at the monstrousity committed on that day. Our minds real and seek something to latch it upon. Something to make it all make sense even if it is horrible. We seek to set things in such a way that someone must have had control of the situation. Control is not always present. Life is uncertain. We only have each other to lean upon.
