Fourteen Points of Agreement with Official Government Reports on the World Trade Center Destruction

Finally! After submitting a half-dozen papers to established peer-reviewed technical journals over a period of nearly a year, we have two papers which have passed peer-review and have been accepted for publication. One of these was published TODAY! In science, we say that we have “published in the literature,” a major step in a nascent line of scientific inquiry. (911blogger.com)

Fourteen Points of Agreement with Official Government Reports on the World Trade Center Destruction

pp.35-40 (6) Authors: Steven E. Jones, Frank M. Legge, Kevin R. Ryan, Anthony F. Szamboti, James R. Gourley

doi: 10.2174/1874149500802010035

The 14 points are:

1. WTC 7 Collapse Issue - Apparently it is difficult to fully explain the complete and rapid collapse of WTC 7 with a fire-based hypothesis alone.

2. Withstanding Jet Impact

3. Pancake Theory Not Supported

4. Massive Core Columns - The hat-truss tied the core to the perimeter walls of the towers, and thus allowed the building to withstand the effects of the aircraft impact and subsequent fires for a much longer time—enabling large numbers of building occupants to evacuate safely

5. Essentially in Free Fall

6. Fire Endurance Tests, No Failure

7. Fires of Short Duration

8. WTC Fires Did Not Melt Steel

9. Destruction of WTC Steel Evidence

10. Unusual Bright Flame and Glowing Liquid (WTC 2)

11. High-Temperature Steel Attack, Sulfidation

12. Computer Modeling and Visualizations - We agree that NIST resorted to complex computer simulations and no doubt “adjusted the input” to account for the Towers’ destruction, after the fire-endurance physical tests did not support their preordained collapse theory.

13. Total Collapse Explanation Lacking

14. Search for Explosive or Thermite Residues
