Steven Jones dust analysis proves box of cheerios destroyed WTC

According to Professor Jones's analysis of World Trade Center steel and dust samples, high traces of sulfur and iron were found. Also found were traces of zinc, manganese, and titanium. Finally the proof: Cheerios used to destroy the WTC!



That's right. Iron and zinc are both chemical fingerprints of Cheerios and Cheerios alone. Sulfur is used in its cardboard box. Manganese and titanium are also used in both the box's paint and in the plastic bag. Therefore, Cheerios were used to destroy the WTC.

Or maybe not. The point is, the elements Steven Jones believes are fingerprints of thermate are used in practically everything. Boxes of Cheerios are just as likely a culprit for their presence in the WTC dust as thermate. It's really sad that he can call these "uncommon chemical elements" and have his followers be so gullible as to believe it.

I would pay good money to see a box of Cheerios bring down a skyscraper.

Of course, it's just as likely that the sun raining down "two scoops of raisins" is what caused the collapse of WTC 7. "Scoop it!"

Interesting. Now did the Cheerios have any involvement in the pentagon as well?

Quite true.

In order of abundance in the Earth's crust:

iron - 4th
titanium - 9th
manganese - 12th
sulphur - 14th
zinc - 24nd

Other than zinc, they are all in the top 15 most common elements on the planet!

Good one!

Oh, and doesn't the complete conspiracy also require 4 (or 6?) ounces of milk per serving, as well?

Thus, the JMOOOOOS were also in on it.

This is a little late, but isn't it strange that Professor Jones titled his thermate paper "Finally the proof: Thermate used to destroy WTC"? Finally the proof: Steven Jones (and other "scholars" for 9/11 truth) start out with their own belief of what destroyed the WTC, and then go out looking for evidence trying to prove it. And then never find it.

You're all nuts and milking this joke far too much.
Just a great big bowl of wrong.

Wow, I think I might be onto something here. I must've missed this before, but Cheerios also contains 115mg of POTASSIUM!!! Potassium was found in abundance in the WTC dust. Jones claims that Potassium is a fingerprint of thermate, but nope. I say it's a fingerprint of Cheerios.

How does Jones respond when confronted with the mounds of facts that highlight how ridiculous his "theories" are?

How did he get his PhD in a scientific field without so much as a basic understand of ethics and the scienitifc method?

I really want to know the answers to these questions.

No, but the twoof movement is certainly chock full of bovine excrement. (I know, I know, that goes without saying, but what the hell, might as well say it )

That box is just asking for a make over with "9/11 Fruit Loops" replacing the cheerios and a sticker with "Contains Nuts" added.

And since Cheerios float in milk, they must be lighter than air, which also conveniently explains the so-called "pyroclastic flows".
