I just received a rather bizarre PM from Childlike Empress.
It includes these statements:

Can any of you fill me in on his/her technical background? Tom |

CE and bs and JJ are the extent of my 'ignore' list. Not much content there worth reading.

Had I only known I didn't need to spend all those years in school and on the job to qualify as an expert on engineering, I could have saved a lot of time and money. Alas, I took the long route (which appears to be the road less traveled, at least in the 9/11 conspiracy community).

The guy received an answer. I don't know if it is against the rules to post PMs, but it certainly is bad style. I return the bad style with the PM i sent back:

Hmmmm, you're invoking "bad style"? How quaint. Let's leave the personal stuff behind, and stick to the pertinent, 9/11 events. Why don't you give provide a meaningful, content laden synopsis on the collapse of the WTC7 walls. As you understand the event. Alternatively, you could attempt to answer the questions that I put to Tony in the original quote that prompted this little tete a tete. Or would that discussion be part of all that engineering you've forgotten... Let's see if you've got substance to back up your strut. Tom |

It's never " good style" to not tell the truth or threaten someone - PM or not. His "act" is to rationally and thoroughly demolish Truther deceptions and falsehoods. Your reply didn't enhance your factless posts. If you're not a licensed engineer you're the one that deserves to go away. Are you a licensed engineer. Are you? |

Talking about this I remember a true story. I kid you not.
Just after 9/11 the BBC ordered a general trawl of their electronic data to look for certain keywords like terrorist', 'bin laden' 'Twin Towers ' nd so on. Thre was some mementary excitement when the computers spat out stuff about ' bins laden with this or bins laden with that' lol |

I hope the mods will indulge me here in producing the entire llst.
If one integrated theory can pull all these things together it must be obvious that it needs looking into... Concrete reduced to talcum powder dimensions....explained 'Steel to China'. ruse ....explained Missing core columns....explained 'Meteorites'....explained huge volume of nanothermite needed ....explained How the nanothermite was planted unseen....explained Steel flow from 81st floor WTC2....explained Antenna falls first WTC1.....explained Why the pile stayed hot for 100 days...explained No thermite glare...explained missing 110 acres of floorpans....explained missing 220 acres steel floor reinforcing....explained 'Steel to China'. ruse ....explained Fireball from elevator.....explained Filipe David's injuries (skin hanging off).....explained. |

I thought about your stunt here, Tom. It's actually quite hilarious. First, he left out the first sentence of my PM: "I didn't question your degree, i questioned your authority." It was an answer to the initial PM he sent me. That PM contained his alleged degree, University and year, followed by the sentence "I'd appreciate it if you'd keep my personal info confidential." And then he turns around and publically posts parts of my PM. What a trustworthy guy. Did you try to trick me into publishing your alleged personal information, Tom? Epic fail. |

There is no "stunt", CE.
You are welcome to publish anything that you want. I requested (and still request) that you keep the personal info that I revealed to you confidential. For the specific reason that I've already endured my "twoofer stalker", complete with attempts to track me to my home town & threats to kill me with a sniper rifle. Because that person, who believes in the Illuminati/Jew run world, chemtrails, HAARP generated earthquakes, CIA developed AIDS, and end of the world in 2012, felt that I was evil for believing that heat can weaken steel. I'd rather not go thru that again. The first sentence of your post was not the "bizarre" part of your post. That sentence was reasonable. You'll note that in my post, I stated (with exactitude) that your post "included" the statements listed. I did NOT say that it was your complete post. Once again, you are welcome to review my posts. Easily done. Do a search on posts by me that contain the word "the". You'll get just about every one of them. You'll find that ~80% of them address some engineering or aviation point. (My two principle interests.) About 10% address some non-engineering issue. And the last 10% bash bill smith for being a clueless idiot & troll. (You'll find this last group to be old posts, before I achieved a blissful, BS-free existence thru the prophylactic application of the "Ignore" feature.) Now, please clarify something for me. You claim to have "forgotten more engineering than I'll ever know". This statement intentionally implies some level of engineering experience/expertise. I asked you to relate exactly what engineering experience you possess. I haven't heard a response as yet. Feel free to elaborate on your engineering background. Feel free to also elaborate on the engineering aspects of my original claim that sparked your reply to me. (My claim that "the fall of the unsupported WTC7 walls could be understood with 'sophomore level engineering'.") After I hear a cogent technical counter-claim from you, I'll be happy to keep my replies strictly related to the engineering aspects of that issue. Tom |
