Gold's site, 911blogger.com, has a new thread entitled "Ghosts of the Firemen." Spectral images of firefighters haunting Bush ignore the reality that the heroes of 9/11 despise the conspiracy liars. Here is an exchange with a loon who uses REAL SCIENCE to batter poor lil' me:
Ronald Weick needs to answer these 6 points 1. evaporated steel was reported in the new york times by Thomas Barnett, its in jones paper. 2. Wille rodriguiez and at least 20 others heard a big explosion in the basement BEFORE the plane impact. 3. Molten dripping steel, i love the way you dodged that. FIRE DOESNT MELT STEEL. Please explain. Jones paper was peer reviewed. 4. Since NIST in there recently released FAQ says its basically a pile driver theory , how does the alleged pile driver turn to dust in midair, how can it crush the building if it turns into dust in midair? i love the way you ignored that. 5. Since no fire has ever caused a building to collapse, why did building 7 collapse? How did all the core and perimeter columns fail at the same time? Its going to be a tough one to answer BC even nist cant answer it. DR. Sunder from NIST in mar 2006. NIST did have "some preliminary hypotheses" on 7 WTC, Dr. Sunder said. "We are studying the horizontal movement east to west, internal to the structure, on the fifth to seventh floors." Then Dr. Sunder paused. "But truthfully, I don't really know. We've had trouble getting a handle on Building No. 7." 6. Plenty of experts agree with the CD theory. Two swiss structural engineers and an explosives expert jowenko say building 7 was a CD. Charles Pegelow a structural engineer agrees with the CD theory. Stephen jones a phd in Physics.............many more do, read the comment on Jones paper, structural engineers, civil engineers and a professor of Physics from MIT AGREE with him. THEY DO SO AND LEAVE ONLY THEIR FIRST NAMES BC OF PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF WHO RIDICULE AN OPEN AND HONEST DEBATE. THERE WAS ONLY ONE GALILEO, LUCKILY MORE AND MORE EXPERTS ARE WAKING UP DESPITE THE RISKS TO THEIR CAREERS AND LIVES. Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Fri, 01/05/2007 - 11:43pm. » edit | reply | 0 points New Evidentiary Reasoning. Great job, anonymous! You are the first conspiracy liar to present actual evidence. There are, however, a few minor problems. 1) Nobody has the slightest idea of what "evaporated steel" is supposed mean. Possibly you meant, evaporated milk. 2) There were no explosions in the basement , or anywhere else, before the plane impact. The seismic data gathered by the Lamont-Doherty laboratories are very clear on this point. 3) Fire melts steel if it's hot enough. The fires at the WTC were not hot enough. Nobody thinks that the steel melted. When the fireproofing was dislodged, pockets of heat were trapped, and the core beams were weakened (not melted). No, Steven Jones has submitted nothing for peer-review. He publishes in journals run by like-minded cranks. Try to understand that this assertion is not a matter of opinion. An article is either peer-reviewed or it is not. Jones's nonsense is not. 4) This question is a classic. If you're six years old, you're precocious. If you're over twelve, you have a problem. NIST explained the collapse thusly: The impact of the planes severed external columns and core columns. The impact dislodged fireproofing--had the fireproofing remained intact, the buildings would not have fallen. Uneven heating weakened the core columns, causing them to exert an inward pull on the floor trusses, which, in turn, tugged the external columns inward. Many photos of the Twin Towers clearly show this inward bowing, demonstrating the correctness of the NIST's conclusions. Eventually, the trusses gave way and a global collapse ensued. You have the fantastic notion that the mass of the falling debris somehow vanished. No steel turned to dust. 5) Fires have caused steel buildings to collapse, but what's the difference? You will reject the NIST report on building 7 when it appears. The analysis will be inconvenient to your politics. 6) No structural engineers or demolition experts think that the collapses of the Twin Towers look anything like controlled demolition. Pegelow works on oil rigs. The three Europeans who were taken in by fantasist propaganda photos showing an undamaged WTC 7 have clammed up since receiving accurate information. What will they say when NIST releases its report? We'll have to wait and see. No experts are "waking up" to the nonsensical, baseless fabrications of the conspiracy liars, except to refute them in the name of science.

No plane impacts on WTC 7. I don't care how bad the damage was, it couldn't have been worse than what the plane impacts did to the WTCs, especially since I haven't seen one straight on clear shot of any major damage to WTC 7 - you'd think that with the world's media recording every square inch of that scene, that we'd be able to find lots of great photographs and/or video footage of this massive 10 story hole. Also... it doesn't matter how big the fires were in WTC 7, cus all of the fireproofing couldn't have been dislodged from falling debris on the outside of the building. Which means... that NIST is screwed on this one. They're (NIST) gonna say explosives were used... and then yer minds will proceed to implode on themselves. P.S. I was listening to Alex Jones' radio show the other day and he says that NIST is now saying they think bombs may have been used. He wouldn't say that without a source. I mean, it would be really easy to prove him wrong, since his claim is pretty direct and unambiguous. You guys/gals might want to check around and see if anyone from NIST said something like this recently. |

Controlled demolition charges cause the inward bowing? Explain that one to me 28th, you seem such a connaisseur in the matter.

how could the damage to #7 be not as bad when debris from the towers fell through it? which is heavier? aluminum plane fuselage or steel and concrete? Also theres a study I believe from the UK that says that even with fireproofing collapse was a strong probability. Do you even have a clue what a fire rating is? if an assembly has a two hour fire rating what does that mean? |

Alex Jones. You are quoting Alex Jones? Have you seen some of the things he claims?
Like Jacques Cousteau wanted to eliminate 80 percent of the worlds population. The NIST says they are investigating all possibilities regarding WTC 7 including explosives. Now AJ reads explosives and jumps to the conclusion that the NIST is saying there were bombs. Do you see how AJ reasons? You are quite right he is direct and unambiguous. He's also wrong and you suck it up. Don't you want to be the first to post a source that shows the NIST says it was bombs? Get to it. |

Yea, the same Alex Jones who forecasted the events of 9/11:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...53307321536024 And, the same Alex Jones who predicted the anthrax outbreak, on his 9/11 broadcast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBHryBQ4K-Y I certainly don't take everything he says as gospel, but I do think he's pretty well informed when it comes to things like geopolitics. |

Common sense would say that having parts of a skyscraper falling on it had something to do with WTC7's collapse, but I tend to leave such analysis to the structural engineers.
Did you just say that the planes brought down WT1 and WTC2? I think that you did!

Alex Jones did not predict 9/11
Point of order!
Alex Jones did not predict 9/11. This claim is as false as Alex's other weird statements. (If you're unfamiliar with Alex Jones, take a gander at some of his astonishing beliefs. It's a real mind-blower.) The truth is, Jones makes no prediction of anything whatsoever on his July 25, 2001 show. He says, "Call the White House and tell them that, if there's any terrorism, we'll know it was you." Note the conditional phrase "IF there's any terrorism." Jones is not making a prediction of anything, nor does he do so anywhere on the tape. When Perry says "if I could have a date with J-Lo," he is not predicting that he will have a date with J-Lo. He's just daydreaming. A conditional phrase makes no statement about reality. Alex makes lots of predictions, but he has never successfully predicted anything. He said Saddam Hussein had been taken to Cuba. He said the Administration was going to "roll [Osama] bin Laden out on ice" before the 2004 election. He said we were all going to be implanted with microchips, herded into "compact cities," force-vaccinated, and killed. He said there would be martial law. He said there would be a draft. He said money was being phased out. He said there would be foreign troops in the streets, etc., etc., etc. Alex has been predicting more big domestic terror attacks ever since 9/11. That's six straight years of wrong predictions! Here are more of Alex's incorrect prognostications: http://perrylogan.org/Bogus%20Predictions.html Alex's belief that he can predict the future is a common CT delusion. As you've probably noticed, conspiracy folks make predictions all the time--and never notice that they're wrong. |

There's a reference of "dripping steel" in a newspaper interview with a firefighter called Joe "Toolie" O'Toole. The interview was published in the Philadelphia Enquirer in May 2002. There's a reliable (ie from a non-CT site) copy of the article here.
I think it is this that the Truthers are citing as proof that there was molten steel and so there had to be thermite. I see plenty of problems with this, however, this is what I posted in another thread about this: |

Quoted because I want to remind 28th Kingdom of his cowardice both in refusing to respond to this point and in putting so many people on his ignore list. 28th - the world doesn't believe your story, how are you going to convince it when you are such a coward? |

Ah, but the sheer, unprecedented depths of his cowardice are sure to inspire awe in all who read his work!
Never before has such a coward been quite so craven! Not only to ignore posts the old fashioned way, but to employ the latest in technology to ignore posters! And not only does he ignore posts and posters, he ignore entire lines of argument, regardless of the source! And he does it all over an anonymous channel of communication! Truly his poltroonery has never before been matched. Such commitment to pusillanimity must surely convince a few other faint-hearted yellow-bellies! |

Just musing on how anyone (even a CT'er) could believe Alex Jones when he claims the NIST says there were bombs in WTC 7.
If it were true: GAME OVER. CNN, FOX, BBC would have it on their front pages. Bush would be hounded by reporters. I would be in shock, same as when I saw the planes hit. Shows how utterly clueless AJ's target audience is. |

Well, I know that Mike Newman of NIST says flatly that bombs DIDN'T cause the collapse. But, then, Newman is merely a scientist; Jones is a genuine liar. We have to go with Jonesy, right 28IQ?

I think that the vile picture appearing on 911blogger.com, "Ghosts of the Firemen," should be shown to some firemen and their reactions preserved on video. Would anyone care to help with this project? Gravy?
Jon Gold is attempting to ingratiate his band of cretins with first responders. His efforts need to be exposed. |

Didn't I say Alex said NIST thinks bombs may have been used? It is in reference to WTC 7... and the fact that NIST is now considering explosives into their investigation. YES, that MEANS they think bombs may have been used.
YES THAT IS WHAT IT MEANS... if they didn't think bombs may have been used THAN THEY WOULDN'T investigate it. It doesn't mean they believe bombs were used... THEY ARE SAYING they think it's possible that bombs may have been used. Side Note: Maccy, yer on ignore... I don't put up with tyranny... isn't that obvious by now? |

I was thinking of trying to find an appropriate way of posting a link to that entry here:
http://www.fallenbrothers.com/community/index.php and encouraging the posters of that community to make their feelings known on 911blogger.com The "artist" that created this has a website here: http://deesillustration.com/ and a large gallery of what he calls satire here: http://www.dees2.com/sat1.html although you will only laugh at its stupidity, unless you are too busy feeling ill. |

Hooray! I'm on ignore! More cowardice from 28th!
If he could read this, he could respond to me pointing out that NIST only considering hypothetical blast scenarios for WTC7 to demonstrate what would have happened to the building in these hypothetical cases. By showing that the building did not behave in the way indicated by the blast hypotheses they will provide evidence that controlled demolition did not occur. In other words, they're doing it in an effort it get idiots like Alex Jones and 28th Kingdom to shut up. Even if he could read this, I'm sure 28th wouldn't respond on this point - it's too challenging. |
