No the swiss cheese metal was caused by the drywall.
The people handling that material (under apparent secrecy) came up with the idea of thermite. Thermite best explained the damage to them. So we have a bunch of people who swear it was thermite, because of the Swiss cheese metal. They are wrong but very persistent. The FBI may have believed the worst about their boss, and thought it was some secret weapon. Because nobody is talking to nobody, it doesn't get disproved. |

Name calling will earn you no friends. This ain't that kinda forum. Tone it down and bring a fact or two with you for the conversation and maybe people will engage with you in a constructive manner.
As for "no real fire" and "not hit by a plane" perhaps your conversation requires a new thread. At the Icke forum. Making bold but unsupported assertions may feel good but it's not intellectual discourse. |

I'm not sure how to tell you this nicely. You're not important enough for anyone to plotting your death over 9/11. The former Bush administration doesn't even know you exist and if they did they wouldn't care. All your talk of bringing them to justice really just shows you don't have an accurate view of your own ability. Even if they were guilty of crimes related to 9/11, you're just no good enough to be the one to bring them in. Sorry but you probably need to come to terms with this.

That's nice. Do you have some explosive residue to show us? How about someone who can place people planting explosives in the building prior to the attack? May we see a copy or even some excerpts from this master plan thing you talk about? Who planted the explosives? Who was in on your master plan?

After the collapse, but this was a rare situation. Most fires with gypsum involved, do not create a lot of sulfuric acid because the fires are usually very short. This was different, it my have only took a few days for some of the steel to look pretty bad. Now the people removing the steel are under some sort of secrecy or legal muzzling. They see the Swiss cheese steel and they also see that the people controlling the site don't like seeing it either. So the people collecting the steel get the impression that what ever caused the steel to look this way, is a secret. With no actual information being given to them, they begin to think that someone is hiding something. The people controlling the site (the FBI) aren't real sure if they are hiding something. This is like the Lucille Balls I Love Lucy at the Nuclear Reactor Site episode. Someone comes up with the idea it was some form of experimental thermite. The idea is wrong but it kind of explains what they are seeing. Neither the FBI or the people removing the steel is 100% sure what is going on, and they are not sure if they want to know. |

Gypsum degrading to release sulfur in long duration reduction atmosphere fires has been known about for years. The conditions under which it happens are rare, but it's not some kinda state secret or something. I'm sure you can provide references for me to read backing your assertion that "people controlling the site" clamped down on the information . . . so could you please? For me? Pretty please? |

Its a guess and you are free to pick it apart.
The basic premise is that Brush never shares information unless he has to. The steel is starting to look bad in days, the more heat and gases, the more acid, the more hydrogen, the more heat. When the original fire material is used up And the temperature under the pile goes down then the reaction stops. Each chemical reaction uses up some of the original energy from the fuel fire as heat. Gypsum is converting energy to Sulfuric Acid. The Sulfuric Acid creates hydrogen when it contacts the steel. After the collapse I would guess that the hydrogen would increase temperatures locally. The heating creates more acid, the acid eats metal and the temperature in small areas goes to the maximum temperature of a hydrogen flame burning in air. Because Brush hates to give out information the FBI is operating in the dark, they really don't know what to think about the steel so they cover their ass. Rule No 1. I don't know if they discuss it or send the information upwards. They do know with 100% certainty that a wrong or embarrassing question can end their careers. This is J. Edgar Hoover's FBI, just the way he wanted it, as a tool for political control. Can you tell that I hate the FBI? So the FBI themselves, are not sure if they are hiding something. An information vacuum is created, the thermite does explain some of it and it fills the information vacuum. It is NOT correct but it does correlate with what they have seen, and why it is being kept a secret. It is a feedback loop of noise. |

Most FBI agents do not have a technical background. This phenomena is rare. If you are an agent without a technical background what would you think when you saw the Swiss Cheese metal?
As far as giving, the people doing the removal an impression of clamping down, it could have been as simple as a nondisclosure agreement. Even simple nondisclosure agreements attempt to unconstitutionally prevent the agreement contents from being disclosed. If anything more intimidating happened at the site, you would have to ask the people who did the removal. FBI agents also like the sunglasses and silence look. (Most of the FBI are cross-eyed) |

In the days after 9/11 before I took the rabbit ears off my tv to prevent exposing my small children to inappropriate visual stimuli I watched quite a bit of the news coverage of the ground zero cleanup. I don't remember there being much FBI presence. Could you point me to your sources indicating a high level of FBI presence in a heavy construction/demolition cleanup environment?

You realise that you,
1) make no sense, and 2) base everything you say on blind assumptions? Unless you can show that steel exhibiting the same characteristics as the "sulfidated"? samples was in fact removed and never to be seen again that your entire diatribe is nothing more than a series of disjointed words that lack any impact on real life. |

What is this sabotage you speak of? How is it weakening the steel?
To me it seems that you think the high temperature corrosion seen in some samples, caused by sulphidation and oxidation driven by solid state diffusion, is in some way a sabotage of the steel before collapse. I'll firstly pull you up on your use of the word "etched". Not sure why you are using that, it has a very specific meaning in metallurgy. http://metals.about.com/od/metallurg...ic-Etching.htm Yes we have a good basis for models based on the examination of recovered steel. The damage is not acid etching -see above. The mechanism for the corrosion observed is not the standard chemical one, but one based upon solid state diffusion. The problem you have is this type of high temperature corrosion will not erode the required thickness of steel in the timeframe that was seen, i.e. the time between the aircraft crashing into the towers and the collapse. Here is some information for you to understand. http://www.georgevandervoort.com/fa_...ade_Center.pdf The steel was examined at various sites. Some of it was marked to be saved so analysis could be performed. How do you think they got the samples for the above report if the steel went missing? |

HMS Sheffield had a steel superstructure contrary to popular belief
There's plenty of info out there.Aluminium in bulk form is very difficult to ignite. When used as fuel for rocket motors the aluminium is in a powder form which gives a far higher surface area making it easier to ignite and burn. Eg: take a 1Kg block of Aluminium and heat it with an oxyacetylene torch. It will take a little while to start melting not burning the block. Now do the same to 1Kg of powdered aluminium - but call the burn's unit first because you'll need them. |

I think he is claiming that when the steel was removed the workers saw huge numbers of steel beams with lots of holes in - "the swiss cheese" effect. The workers went WTF!?, never seen that before, that must have been caused by thermite. Everything was hushed up because of the odd looking steel, but the workers talked and the theory of thermite got out.
He then goes on to say that the swiss cheese effect isn't caused by thermite, but caused by the decomposition of drywall producing SO2 and the SO2 reacting with water to produce sulphuric acid which then attacked the steel. He's sort of right with this except that you don't need the additional step of producing the H2SO4. If he understood this report http://www.georgevandervoort.com/fa_...ade_Center.pdf he'd understand that sulphuric acid wasn't the culprit. |

Given the explanations for the destruction that are available
- the NIST/Bazant and others scenarios in which the very obvious aircraft impacts and jet fuel acellerated large area multifloor fires in the towers, the widespread large area fires in WTC 7 and the aircraft impact at the Pentagon caused the destruction and loss of life of Sept 11/01 - various and sundry hidden from view enormous conspiracies involving, in some cases, unknown technologies (appeal to magic), and/or legerdemain. I will accept the former. In short, no you do not have enough evidence to prove something other than 4 suicide hijacker controlled aircraft were the initiating cause of the death and destruction of Sept 11/01. |

The report if I understand it correctly suggests a complex environment.
It is attacked by acid, and the the hydrogen that is created burns very close to the sample. Temperature of 950C reached. The flame temperature of hydrogen burning in air is 2200C. Because of thermal conduction the steel sample moves heat to non-flame exposed areas. The FeS liquifies and enters the structure of the steel. I guess it was nnear the surface since it would have enough oxygen for the flame and to account for some of the chemical reactions. This in not inconsistent with exposure to a H2S at a high temperature. The environment seems too hot for Sulfuric Acid to form. It still reacts with the steel, and still produces hydrogen to produce a hot flame. The second sample has copper mixed in. Either a hot conventional material fire or a hydrogen fed fire may have melted the copper on to the steel. The molten copper would tend to indicate high temperatures though a low oxygen content. The copper may have melted purely from heat conduction and migrated as a liquid. Just a guess. It would indicate more H2S gas corrosion than a liquid sulfuric acid attack. The H2S is more mobile and moves as a gas rather than the liquid (and gravity driven) sulfuric acid. |

No, it was exposed. People, for what ever motives chose to protect it. The more that become aware of the conspiracies extents, the weaker it becomes.
The conspiracy became too large and too many members are having doubts. Few of the people aiding the conspiracy have actually committed crimes. They thought this was just politics in the gray areas of the law. They will be given one chance, a choice to come over to the Jedi, or remain affiliated with the Sith. When the choice is between acknowledging your mistakes or willingly choosing to be a traitor, it would seem to be an easy decision. The Conspiracy will succeed or fail by these choices. How will you choose? |

Oops!
the building turned to dust...no? where did all the energy come from to turn the concrete into dust (ya have any idea how hard it is to do that and the amount of energy that would be required to turn it all into dust) maybe you do.....I do...and there wasn't enough energy left (if you believe the official lie) why...because there is energy required to SEVER all the connection points...by the floors "crashing into each other" hey if you want to believe that fine.....but why wait 411 days to start an investigation???? why??? oh so the people who planned it could make sure all the evidence was cleaned up....(yeah maybe the police should wait 411 days to start an investigation into a murder than you would be sure to gather all the important evidence)
I don't know who some of you are....I could care less unless you speak the truth....and the Truth is Not that 19 Arabs led by a man in a cave 6000 miles away demolished 3 WTC buildings.....where is the plane from flight 93? where is the evidence that a place actually flew into the pentagon? give me a break.....oh I bet you and others get paid to keep the lie going....I bet you believe JFK was shot by oswald too huh? Google Operation Northwoods...read it well see what little sneaks our little secret black op's/cia was doing back then......please jet fuel melting WTC....COME ON WHERE ARE THE PICTUERS OF A RAGING FIRE....IF YOU BELIEVE FIRE BROUGHT WTC 7 DOWN YOU ARE HIGH ON CRACK MY FRIENDS.....CAN YOU SAY DEMOLITION...COME ON DEMO LITION....EASY SOUND IT OUT..... |
