Reply #137: But isn't the bottom line still the same - NO DEMO!

I am willing to accept imperfection in the NIST report because I don't believe perfection is possible with the present state of the art. You are mistaking the normal give and take in the scientific process as somehow undermining the entire NIST report and that is simply not true. And there is also the point that we won't know who is right until all the experiments are completed - it might take years to come to a final answer as each experiment builds on another and as technology improve.


Did you look at the public comments page for the NIST report? There are comments from many professional organizations representing hundreds if not thousands of professionals. Many point out deficiencies or possible improvements in the NIST report but not a single one questions the basic premise that fires caused the WTC collapse. Can you produce a similiar list supporting demolition?

I will concede that the NIST report is not perfect in every detail - I have never said it was. But the Arup report only confirms in my mind that NIST got the important things right, namely that fires caused the collapsed of the WTC. What do you intend to do when there are two reports that show no demolition was required? Will your conspiracy theories stretch far enough to encompass an independent report from a foreign country?
