When you don't know what you're talking about, it's hard to know when you're finished.

Thanks for the constructive criticism... I don't know what it means, but thanks anyway.

"Free fall speed. Do you have a chronometer? Measure it, and the time WTC7 took to reach the ground was 6.5 seconds."

are you aware of the east penthouse? most truther sites do not show it. it was part of the building. from the time it started to go down until the rest of the building started to go down is over 7 seconds alone. the collapse was not even close to free fall speed. again, truther sites ignore the east penthouse. but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. it does. no free fall.

Hmmm... In essence, you are stating that the building fell FASTER than free fall??? Are you serious??? Wow, So an apple would take 7 seconds and the building only took 6.5 seconds??? Again... Are you serious??? The quickest part of the building to fall took 8 seconds (this is the part of the building that had the first 20 floors removed) and the rest of the building an additional 7 seconds.

6.5 SECONDS????? That BREAKS the laws of physics!!!! Very stupid assertion you are making.

It's CLOSE to free-fall-- i.e. within one second or so-- and therefore fools LAYMEN who have NO QUALIFICATIONS TO ANALYZE BUILDING-DAMAGE.

And since Truthers HAVE no such qualifications, then they are easily fooled by the speed of the collapse.

And the fires didn't reach 900 kelvin, they reached 900 CELSIUS-- which is 1173 degrees Kelvin!

The problem is that truth is stranger than fiction, but Truthers are drama-queens who THRIVE on fiction.

[unclesamsnephew666]

when you say minor damage and fire in some floors, where do you get that info from? were you aware there are over 35 quotes from firemen on the scene who ALL say the damage was severe and the fires were anything but small?

who do you think knows better? the source of your info (likely not on the scene) or firemen and other first responders who were on the scene?

"Weeks later substance of Thermate was found there"

not true.

2.25 sec of freefall, not the entire collapse. not even close.

[gadget133]

1) Yes, it collapsed.

2) No, not in free fall. Very silly to say that.

3) It's own footprint??? No, it did not. The site was a mess.

Minor Damage??? Are you serious??? Wow...

Small fires??? The fires reached over 900 degrees Kelvin... Small???

I know it's hard to accept real information, but the shit you have been told is mostly bullshit or exaggeration.
