I just had one ask me this
and why didn't the engine safety-releases cause them to fall off?
He's a no planer and I guess he thinks the engines release on impact, somewhat like an airbag deploys.

Too many to list,although this has to be among the top;
"I don't understand why the CIT guys have to insist on there being a plane of any kind when all the witnesses testimony support a missile. Apart from the fact that they say it was a plane."
It won a stundie earlier this year.

"Roosevelt Roberts did not witness any ´impact´
´when the explosion hit´ he was in South Parking and had no view. On top of that he was INSIDE the building. So no, he was not an ´impact witness´"
Hmm, indoor parking at the Pentagon!

No planers that say something other than a plane caused the damage at the Pentagon. (even if they agree that one did fly at the building they are still "no planers" since there is supposedly no plane in the building)
No planers that say there was no plane in Shanksville.

So hard to choose. Perhaps that "the people on the streets of New York who saw Flight 175 hit the South Tower didn't REALLY see a plane, they were just so shocked and confused about what they saw that when they went home later that day, and saw on TV that the media claimed it was a plane, they were immediately brainwashed into believing so."

I am constantly amazed that basically no one in the group of persons who do not believe the commonly accepted history of events of Sept. 11/01 even considers the so-called LIHOP senario in which Islamic militants do plan the attacks exactly as in that history but that their plans were known and simply allowed to occur.
It requires no manipulation of the laws of physics, no magical weaponry, it does not require that masses of people be tricked into seeing, or thinking they saw, something that did not occur.
Why is it then that the conspiracy theorists seem to require that the event be an insanely large Rube-Goldberg machination?

Thank you. Googling that phrase brought me here (http://wtc7lies.googlepages.com/thestundieawards:stupidesttrutherquotes), where there are many, many, potential contributions to this topic. Also there is a link to here (http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=71358). My favorite so far is a truther speaking on "Truth Jihad Radio" to the execrable Kevin Barrett.
Regardless, I tell people, these buildings fell in 10 seconds, they’re 110 stories. Now let’s just use our mouth to demonstrate this. If a pancake collapse can be described as “clunkity clunk” How many times can you say that in 10 seconds? And if one floor is “clunkity clunk clunkity clunk” you cannot say that 110 times in 10 seconds. So let’s even give it the benefit of the doubt, let’s just take off the “clunk”. Let’s just say “clunkity”. You can’t say that in 10 seconds, 110 times.

In the 1970's I and my physics and engineering friends laughed our collective butts of at a letter to the editor in which the author railed against the 'unnatural' metric system. Among other equally inane proclamations he offered that the speed of light was "almost exactly" 186,000 miles per second whereas in metric it was an unweildy 299,792.458 Kilometers per second.
I wish I had clipped it out and kept it.
That illogic is, to me, so very similar to that of the clunkity clunk nonsense.

And this other stundie from Craig:-
It's circular logic to suggest that strong evidence proving there was a serious deception that took place during this operation of deception is null and void because of the physical evidence which the evidence that contradicts it proves is the deception the first place.

Woooo!
But its not circular logic to say that it was deception because it was deception!

Maybe. For sure, the FDR wasn't part of the plane. It was "added on later" or something like that. Just like a car stereo isn't part of the ... never mind.

I nominate this one, posted by you know who today.
This was an interesting lecture. He says that almost all the concrete was pulverised which we all know anyway. But he also says that there were many particles as small as a hundred microns that could only have come from the compter chips. A hundred microns ? That's prettty small and the computers were maybe three feet above the floors.

Clunkety-clunk still stands the test of time, although Brian Good (aka PetGoat) came close with a couple of his greatest hits:
If your co-workers have any questions, intelligent or otherwise, please forward them. That you were unable to intuit the obvious implications of rakeonrake suggests that, if they're anything like you, they won't have any at all.
And:
What is proposed is that the giant core structure of the WTC, built to carry 10X the weight of the entire tower above, should have captured the disorganized wreckage of the WTC wreckage that was disintegrated core above it, rather than collapsing under this relatively small amount of wreckage.
Meatball on a fork is a metaphor.
Uncle Fetzer, on the Alan Colmes show:
You think those hijackers were just going to let passengers make cell phones, or those.... those.... plane phones? You need a credit card to do that!
Judy Wood:
And recently I gave a talk at an engineering conference where I showed some diagrams of the buildings being built and I showed, “If this were a tree and the Keebler elves cut out this big chunk out of the side here, for their little house, where their dwelling is. Would that affect the towers?” And everyone in the room could see, that no, the way the structure is designed, it can’t bring it down.
The Zither guy at Ground Zero:
But whether it's LIHOP,
Or whether it's MIHOP,
We need to know the truth,
And make this war stop.
28th Kingdom, a former forum member:
At the sake of sounding like a genius...you could hammer an asteroid from outer space straight down on one of the (undamaged) twin towers...and it would not cause a chain reaction of floor failures from top to bottom. If anything, it would drill the vertical columns into the ground like a nail.
Korey Rowe explains how to make a documentary:
"We know there are errors in the documentary, and we’ve actually left them in there so that people discredit us and do the research for themselves."
Morgan Reynolds, explaining the "One-Plane" Theory:
"Here is more food for thought: the same chameleon plane could have appeared at all three events: 9:03a at WTC 2, 9:32-9:37a at the Pentagon, and 10:06a at Shanksville, PA. In truth, the perps only needed the disappearing plane trick at WTC 2 but it is a promising possibility for Shanksville too. The Pentagon event did not really need an airliner but the single plane theory proposed this month as a parody of the JFK single-bullet theory actually might make sense! The same disappearing act by the same secret plane could have been used at all three locations! We shall see if future work bears any of this out."
