No, it was more like a couple thousand fire fighters and iron workers clambering all over the pile looking for stuff or unpiling the pile and the hundreds of people who sorted through stuff at Fresh Kills and identifying stuff as large as a brief case or as small as a fingernail without ever finding a detonator casing or an oddly-melted column that didn't look like it had been in an acid bath.

You keep saying this, which only makes it more obvious that you just don't get it. We have a theory, we have backed it up with evidence. You are challenging our theory, that means that YOU have to prove to US how we're wrong and back YOUR theory up with evidence.

You figured wrong, reasoning, as you do, from a position of absolute ignorance of procedures.
I don't know whether I can dumb this down enough that you can, with your limited understanding of fire investigations, grasp the basic principles of forensics that come into play in this sort of situation. Investigators ask questions aimed at figuring out Who did What, When, Where, How and Why. Usually, there are not several million eyewitnesses to any given crime. In this case, there were. We know the time of the strikes of the two towers and on the Puzzle Palace and the crash at Shanksville. We know that it involved flying stolen airplanes into the targets that were hit and into the ground in the middle of Pennsylvania. We know the times that the airliners were hijacked. We know the airports from which the planes were hijacked. Right out of the box, we had the When, What and Where. How they got control of the aircraft could not be determined from anything that they could find at the target sites. That would have to be determined from communications with people elsewhere, surveilance tapes at the airports. The black boxes were only important to coroborate those findings. The chances that they would find the black boxes in a recognizeable condition the GZ were slim at best. Nothing in the world is utterly indestructible. Black boxes are tough, but not so tough that they would survive the collpases of the towers. Who did it would not be found in anything at GZ. Why they did it would have to be figured out from what evidence they could find at the airports. So, investigators knew that the buildings collapsed because a group of criminals drove airplanes into them and set them on fire and the fires weakened the steel until it did what steel generally does when kept hot enough long enough. It bends and drops its load. No fire fighter with an IQ north of 100 doubts that. There was no sign that anything else had happened. NIST and FEMA were only interested in how the buildings fell because it was their responsibility to figure out whether anything could be done to make it less likely that this sort of thing would happen again if somebody went kamikaze with an airliner or there was a major fire that could not be fought. They did not have to look at the steel where it was to figure that out, and the rubble couldl not be left where it was for them to inspect because there was a fire under it that had to be put out as soon as possible. The investigators from NISTand FEMA were of no use on the pile. The cops, fire fighters and iron workers all had some training to tell them whether something looked wrong as they pulled it from the pile. They could tell the nerds at Fresh Kills that they needed to look at such unusual things. So, yes, a proper investigation, to the extent that it could be done there, was done at GZ. If dirtbags like Alex Jones, Dylan Avery, Chris Bollyn or Eric Huffschmid tell you it wasn't, screw them. They lie a lot. Especially that piece of crap Bollyn. He's a Nazi. Lying is what he does for a living. |

Agreed. But then it is a bit of a strain of the sentence to read "Typical" as qualifying "truther"....
![]() ...when it qualifies "truther arse about logic" in which phrase the noun/object is "logic". ![]() [/legalpedantryOFF] ![]() ...and I would be among the last to credit the troll as being a truther.

I'm still betting on performance art. We've just seen it in the General Skepticism section on another topic. People here are predictable and rise to the bait. If SHC really believes what he espouses, then he's a solipsist. Which is interesting in a dope-smoking dorm room kind of way, but not in real life.

I really don't understand it. In ergo's very first thread here, I spotted the trolling and since I have no longer responded. With SHC, I did the same. This guy adds zero value to the forum.
I guess that, as many will readily admit, these guys serve as the virtual equivalent of cat toys. I have been guilty of responding to posters like this in the past, so will reserve judgement, other than noting that it adds no educational value to respond. |

Haaaaa Right-O. Dope-smoking dorm room hey what if our universe is really small and we are just atoms orbiting some other dude's universe -woah.
It’s Performance Fart Selective Solipsism. For example in order to prove that thousands of people can keep a conspiracy without one saying no and spilling the beans and that tens of thousands of others not in the conspiracy did not notice something amiss and also didn’t say anything, he invented (earlier on some thread no I’m no looking for it) and we are to believe his bogus story of a dozen (not 11 not 13 but a pat coinkidink dozen) fellow employees that conspira-protested to more work by staging a slowdown to produce less than before. The boss cracked and reduced their work. Supposedly the boss didn’t notice the conspiracy (? yeah right) so why did he crack and not fire them? If 12 people I pay screw me I kick their ass to Iran. Totally bogus false anonymous unsubstantiated SHC claim. ! Ha hahahahahahafarthahahah Ha … ! |

You do not see any evidence because....
1. You are not an Engineer 2. You are not a Scientist 3. You are not a Forensic Investigator 4. You are not a Law Enforcement Professional 5. You did not read and understand the FEMA reports, the 9/11 Commission reports, and the NIST reports. Add to that the many peer reviewed journal articles and independent studies/papers done by various individuals and organizations around the world. The great thing about real life is that no one actually cares what the non expert amateurs think...so you saying that you have not seen any evidence doesn't really matter to anyone or change anything in the slightest. |

Jesus, what more exactly do you need from us SHC? The commonly-held narrative, the one we generally support, has been presented and is available for the entire world to review and critique. The prosecution rests. Your turn.
Present something that makes more sense boy. We know the "official story" isn't absolutely perfect, but it makes pretty good damn sense to me, and I don't see any theory or narrative out there that makes more sense. This is your chance! |
