I agree. I've been taken to task in this thread for initially referring to the DEW as a space beam, since Dr. Wood apparently hasn't positively defined where the DEW might be located (or if she did, it was only once, or she wasn't given time to think about it, or...something). But such objections seem misplaced when one considers that space is by far the most logical place for such a device. After all, a ground-based DEW that fried cars at Ground Zero would have equally vaporized all matter between it and those cars. But where were all the reports of what could only be described as the strangest and most unprecedented explosion in the history of Earth, a long streak of unimaginable violence that not only annihilated everything in its path, but also immediately identified the location of the DEW itself?
No matter where you put the DEW it doesn't work. So instead, I guess it's best not to identify where the DEW could be, and leave it as some undefined "out there" that can never be precisely pinned down. Thus no matter how many places you prove the DEW cannot possibly be, Dr. Wood can claim "but I never said it was in any of those places," thereby rendering (in her mind anyway) the DEW unfalsifiable. It's all nonsense of course. That's why I'm surprised someone in all seriousness hasn't proposed an idea I made in jest: The DEW exists in hyperspace. Sure it's ludicrous, but no more so than some of the other DEW-related ideas I've seen put forth without irony. |

If YOU have a claim you want to make about the Kingdome evidence I have brought up, either that you agree with it, disagree with it, challenge it, or whatever it, then make your claim LSBB. You are not the teacher, I am not the student and if I were, I'd take another class as I do not like your teaching style.
Meanwhile, is there something you'd like to claim about the seismic signal of the Kingdome demolition as it compares to the seismic (or lack thereof) of same concerning the annihilation of the Twin Towers and WTC 7? If so make your claim. As to your quibble concerning where the seismic data originated from, I will make one other comment: The location of the observatories is the same as that used to measure other NYC area seismic events, including the January 2001 earthquake and the January 1983 Bayonne explosion, each of which were discussed in this thread; and the earthquake also having been discussed in WDTTG? As the observatory serves the NYC area, it can reasonably be inferred that the data are reliable. NIST relied on them to make some of its findings. Generally, it is not necessary to reinvent the wheel. Your challenge to the data collection points is weak and really is more akin to the shopworn speeding ticket defense I mentioned; a defense that may have worked once or twice, but hardly ever anymore. I'm not sure what you mean when you say "moral equivalance?" Can you clarify. As you may recall, were it not for the dedicated efforts of some 9/11 victims' family members, there might not have ever even been so much as a sham investigation. They had to work long and hard just to get a hamstrung, underfunded, politically neutered 9/11 Commission. An effort that is, on its face, a complete and utter failure of explanation of anything. No, there is no equivalence. The work done by Dr. Wood is in many respects the single most important, most respectful of victims work ever done on the events of 9/11. It is highly misguided to claim going along with the unproven, untenable common storyline has anything at all to do with victims, other than continuing to cover up what happened. You keep asking about DEW here. This is not a DEW thread as I see it. I have posted up an abundance of DEW material in other threads, including some that I provided the OP for. Look them up. |

It's not my field, so can anyone tell me how many seismologists agree with Dr Wood's interpretation?

Jam,
Why would the National Transportation SAFETY Board have an investigation into something that clearly wasn't an accident. This is a law enforcement matter. |

It's a bit more complicated than that. I've heard and read JW postulating/claiming more than a few times that the DEW was situated in space. I can dig out the sources if anyone needs confirmation. It was only after she was widely ridiculed (by all of a rational mind and nearly all truthers) summarily kicked/laughed out of Scholars for 9-11 Truth and into the arms of Jim Fetzer that she seems to have backed away from that particular idiotic claim. Just my 2c Compus |

Man, you sure can say a lot. Judy Wood says there was a DEW and her supporters demand respect. I say she merits no respect because neither she nor any of her supporters have evidence of a DEW.
All hat and no cattle. You have no proof for your case. No proof of seismic relevance, no proof of holographic projectors, no proof of media manipulation. And no proof of the existence of DEW weapons capable of Doostifyin' buildings. You can talk all you want, but you got nuthin' to show. Understood, story over, welcome to ignore. Begone, yon troll. |

I'd like a specific post, please, or an immediate retraction.
I have never agreed with that. I did suggest that there might be some wake turbulence caused by form and parasite drag, but that they'd be trivial in comparison with the wake turbulence caused by the lift generated by the wings. Further, I don't recall my saying that either would be dragged alnog with the aircraft. In fact, my description of wake turbulence is that it would be "laid down, something like paint off of a roller." |

Why? It's no different than me saying you don't know much about pharmaceuticals even though I have no pharmaceutical degree.
What you are doing is telling an expert they are wrong! Beachnut is an experienced pilot who has tremendous knowledge of airplane wakes and how they react. He is way more qualified in this field than you are. |

The Theory of Evolution, the aeroplane, the combustion engine, the light bulb, AC & DC current generation, the PC, the Atomic Bomb, and even the Stealth Fighter were all things which were being developed independently in labs around the world. Often without the knowledge of each other. The technology required to pull off the jetliner strikes on 9/11/2001 would have required multiple breakthroughs in technology. We have not seen those breakthroughs occur independently anywhere since 9/11/2001. So it's safe to say it never existed.

There were no reports of flash-blindness on 9/11 (to my knowledge) which would suggest accidental laser exposure either. Remember there were witnesses in the neighboring buildings and inside each tower. A hologram visible from the ground should have blinded a few people in higher elevations just from the sheer number of people. Finally, when you talk about a holographic projection on the scale of 9/11 you can't ignore the power required. You can't depend on the NY power grid, and a drain of the wattage required would have been noticed by too many people who monitor the grid system. This means your evil cabal would have had their own generators, big ones, flat-bed-truck big. They would have require long, massive cables extending to the projection systems. Someone would have seen them or they would be obvious in photographs.
