In what way does my question "mischaracterize" Dr. Judy Woods' claim?

Are you implying that she hasn't used the terms "dustified" and "wafted to the heavens"?

Let me see if I can help:

Judy Woods claims seismic data supports a bat guano crazy idea that the WTC complex was reduced to dust almost instantaneously.

Seismic data would not record that.

Please explain.

What brand was it?

LSSBB, enough of the quibble, already. Dr. Wood has falsified the common storyline of 9/11.

Deal with it
One big difference Jammy: Radar guns are real and they do need calibration to insure accuracy.. Brand name isn't a big deal.

Deal with how misguided you are.

There are a few drive-ins around in the area where I am. Maybe I should look for an enormous holographic projection unit..

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.

Great post Axxman..Welcome to the forum! (Tracy will ignore this one)

Yeah, really. The WTC was a very, very strong steel cage. It might or might not have been 95% air, it was still a steel cage.

Drop a steel cage, and it doesn't turn into dust. I find it hard to believe that so many people accept the gravity collapse model.

Thank you for your post.

Firstly, your post is yet another quibble. You have not sought to challenge the main issue; namely, that Dr. Wood's seismic analysis falsifiesthe common storyline of 9/11. Your first quoted statement confirms you are merely offering your interpretation, containing obvious unsupported assumptions about a tangent, not the real issue.

You start by saying:



Come on AW, you should be able to spot the woefully insufficient, assumption riddled claim you are wanting to make. Use of language like "massive concrete roof" is an incomplete unsupported claim. Domes are designed to have lightweight roofs. Some are supported by nothing more than air. Your use of the word "massive" serves no purpose other than that of misleading yourself, not others.

The same is true of the next element of statement "...roof of the Kingdome collided with NOTHING before it hit the earth..."

There is no analysis on your part of either distance or effect this would have on seismic readings. Further, you do not analyze that claim in conjunction with your later mention of "95 percent air."

Your inconsistency and your incompleteness of analysis does nothing whatever to counter any analytic proof, or rather disproof of common storyline contained in Ch. 6 of WDTTG?



Your above statement is quite a hodge-podge. Are you still, at this late date, a supporter of the discarded "pancake collapse" theory? If so, why have you clung to that one? In the first place, the visual data of the <10 second annihilation of the Twin Towers shows there was no pancaking. The towers were seen to do otherwise; that is, they were seen to disintegrate in midair and to leave next to nothing on the ground.

Science depends on observation, AW. Not on obfuscation.

There is one (partially) positive element of your post; namely: Your partial acknowledgment the subbasements were intact. In point of fact, as proven by Dr. Wood, the subbasements and the bathtub were by and large intact, not partially so. That factor is consistent with a dearth of material from two 500,000 ton buildings hitting the ground.

By the way, AW, it is misleading to say that the towers were "95 percent air" as you imply they were lightweight. Contrast that dodge with your attempt to make the Kingdom roof "massive" by comparison. That is not the proper way to post up meaningfully, let alone scientifically.

The Twin Towers, the tallest buildings in the world, when built, are the structures to which the word "massive" properly applies. That there are some who claim they were "95 percent air" tells us nothing at all about the towers; and, instead, only tells us that those who use phrases like that are seeking to make excuses for the falsification of the common storyline of collapse.


Blessings

If you come from the perspective of wanting to find out what destroyed the WTC, really, Dr. Wood is the best.

(Unless you believe the official hijack conspiracy theory, which I don't.)

Why are you asking him for this? Dr. Wood doesn't specifically support a projected image theory. If she does, it's a recent development.

You're worried about how to power the machine, when it could have been located anywhere. You wouldn't necessarily see it next door to the WTC with a big sign on it "3D image projector).

The hologram theory doesn't pass the basic conspiracy theory motive test element: Greed. They could have made hundreds of billions above board by now, and they'd be free to spend it. To use holographic planes in a mass murder and flush all of that money down the toilet makes zero sense.

I'm not talking about a conspiracy. I have no idea why those people destroyed the WTC, but I suspect that profit could have been a motive.

So you have this huge money maker sitting in an warehouse somewhere that you can never use again because it made the crime of the century. Who signs onto a dumb idea like this?

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.

Your best bet would be to quote something Dr. Wood has published either in her book or website. Really, Compus, do you actually need me to tell you how to be accurate and correct in the posing of queries?

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

Just a point of order - words in quotation marks are quotations. So the "quotes" you seek are hiding in plain sight, so to speak.

With all the crazy being bantered about, it's sometimes difficult to attribute it to the correct source.

However, there's more than enough to go around.

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.

I'll wait.
We are limited to deduction as the actual technology is only being acknowledged piecemeal. Its use on 9/11 remains cloaked in secrecy.

I'll not only wait, I'll watch, look and search. I'm on it.

But such objections seem misplaced when one considers that space is by far the most logical place for such a device

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

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.
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.

There are several pilots on this forum, none of which will agree with you. Where in hell did you get this ridiculous idea from? Getting high is not necessarily flying.

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 Tupac holgram is state of the art. It ran about $400,000 to pull off. It was done at night under controled conditions. A hologram which can be visible from all angles in bright sunlight would require a bunch of laser tech which doesn't exist yet, plus a reliable power source. Then there would be the years of testing, the remote facility large enough to simulate the scale of lower Manhattan, and the large technical crew required to make this happen.

There are such things as trade secrets and confidential information, right?
Trade secrets yes. Game changing scientific/technology developments - no.

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.


Quote:
You're worried about how to power the machine, when it could have been located anywhere. You wouldn't necessarily see it next door to the WTC with a big sign on it "3D image projector).
It would have been close. It would have been large. It would have required multiple mirror repeaters on roof-tops surrounding the WTC AND the approach to the island (requiring a could of cargo-type ships). In the thousands of pictures taken on 9/11 there is nothing to suggest the presence of a holographic projection system of any kind let alone a system large enough for your theory.

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.

I have no idea why those people destroyed the WTC, but I suspect that profit could have been a motive.
Profit which would forever be at risk because someone would eventually discover the plot.

Meanwhile, as I said before, they used a fantastic technology which they could have used in the open to make themselves wealthy(er), with money they wouldn't have to hide, and the prestige of every scientific award up to and including the Nobel Prize.
