They're your claims, your fool's errand...

The truth is: on 9/11, all of these operations were occurring in real time, obviously as a diversion to airport controllers to confuse the whereabouts of the 4 flights that "crashed".

Mind posting evidence that what you call "obvious" really is...and is true?

Article? {#Lol}  I went to a real live person who passed the series 7 exam.  You can do the same.

ORLY again. Explain how AA and UA are not publicly traded on the NYSE/NASDAQ/S&P.

OK, Orly, I can do that.  You see, "AA" as short for American Airlines and "UA" as short for United Airlines are airline codes used for ticketing and other airline stuff.  And "S&P" is not a stock market. {#Rolleyes}

Silverstein made a billion dollars (or thereabouts) on the insurance payout for the Towers. Hardly a "small profit".

If you already knew the guy's name, why did you ask who it was? {#Stupid}  Small problem here: stock traders don't use "insurance payout" to settle their debts.  And how does "the Towers" relate to the companies you listed?

Because that's the law.

Ah...you're aware that the CIA operates outside of the law of the countries it spies on, aren't you?

You're saying Deutsche Bank doesn't exist?

No.  But what precisely is "the investment firm of A. B. Brown-Deutche Bank."?  There's Deutsche Bank.  There's Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown.  But "the investment firm of A. B. Brown-Deutche Bank."?  No, I don't see it.

Again, it's the the law.

What law?  Where?

I'm getting tired of these pompous little non-answers.  Put up or shut up.

19. Why did President Bush agree to answer questions from the 9-11 Commission only if he was accompanied by Vice President Cheney?

Every dummy needs a ventriloquist? {#Stupid}

Perhaps if you showed me a more complete accounting of what you allege, I may be more able to answer your question.

Why did they stipulate that no audio or video recordings be allowed in this interview? Also, no notes or transcripts of this event were allowed and both the President and the Vice President refused to testify under oath.

Like I said above.

Now I'd like to ask a question.  What does any of that have to anything?  Was Halliburton involved in building any aircraft or edifice involved?  Can the jet fuel be traced back to a Bush-owned oil field?  Other than Executive Privilege, is there anything unusual about what they did?

18. It is odd that all three WTC buildings (1, 2 and 7) totally collapsed on that day. Never before or since in engineering history have steel structure high rise buildings completely collapsed due to fire.

They totally collapsed?  Please define "totally collapsed".  You see, I remember seeing pieces of building as high as 200 feet still standing.  While 200 feet might seem small compared to the original height, 200 feet is twice as tall as the first skyscraper, to put it into perspective.  200 feet isn't my idea of "total collapse".

I also distinctly recall another critical factor that you failed to mention: airplanes.

Yes, it is true that no 1700 foot tall steel and Shotcrete buildings have burned to the ground, it's equally true that no 1700 foot tall buildings were struck by fast-moving jumbo jets containing full loads of jet fuel.  Maybe there's a connection between those airplanes and the WTC buildings not burning down.

Oh, BTW, what is the question?

17. The official explanation is that the Twin Towers collapsed based on the so-called "pancake theory".

Define "official explanation".

The people who I heard using the word "pancake" ad nauseam were TV reporters who are only familiar with pancake makeup.

Call me crazy, but I have this sneaking suspicion that flying fully-loaded heavy aircraft into the Twin Towers was more than coincidental.

The towers could not have collapsed in the 8.4-10 seconds that they did (virtually free-fall speed)...

Define "free-fall speed".  How does your "free-fall speed" reconcile itself with the physical phenomenon known as "acceleration"?  Where do you get your numbers?  How can you reconcile them with the 15 minutes of time that passed between the first signs of motion inside building 2 were reported and when the NYPD helicopter saw motion outside?

since if one floor was striking another floor beneath it, each floor would encounter resistance and slow down the collapse.

Are you putting forth a theory here?  It sure looks like it.  But as a theory it's incomplete.  Please present me a completed theory, including a definition of this "resistance" that you mentioned.

There are ample amounts of video and audio that document the eyewitnesses (survivors, fire fighters, policemen etc.) who recall hearing explosions going off right before the towers fell.

I agree that there is ample audio and video evidence.  And that is why you should have no problem presenting audio and video of the actual "explosions" themselves.  It would be foolish to rely on the memories of traumatized people who might never have witnessed an explosion before, and therefore would not be able to say for sure that they heard an explosion, or something else.

16. Why was the debris from the collapsed Twin Towers immediately loaded on to trucks and put on freighter ships to Asia to be melted down?

Another loaded question.

You make it sound like a simple task—just drop it in a Baggie and chuck it on a boat.  It doesn't work that way.

There are more hours of video chronicling the rescue, recovery and cleanup at Ground Zero than any one person can possibly view in a lifetime.  The evidence is overwhelming.  There was nothing "immediate" about moving the wreckage.  It took months.

But don't take my word for it.  Go into a south Manhattan firehouse and ask for volunteers to sign an affidavit corroborating your claim.

The last time I checked, Staten Island has never been in Asia, and "melted down" is not an acceptable way to describe lying around, being examined and rusting.

It is a federal offense to remove material from a crime scene.

So every cop, evidence tech and medical examiner is wanted by the FBI? {#Rolleyes}

I doubt that.  And it's your claim to prove...or fail trying.

15. If Flight 93 was brought down in a crash in Shanksville, PA by a struggle between the hijackers and passengers on board, what explains a debris field of wreckage that covered an area of between a 5 to 8 mile radius?

Kinetic energy.  A very heavy object full moving at several hundred knots releases tremendous amounts of energy when it crashes into terra firma.  Loose or knocked-loose items can be propelled very far from the main crater by a level of energy that is equivalent to a very large bomb.  The burning fuel can create thermals that lift light objects like paper, and the prevailing winds can carry them far away.

Multi-ton aircraft engines don't bounce miles away from the site of the initial impact.

If you say so.  I haven't seen any experiments to see how well "multi-ton aircraft engines" bounce.  Why is this relevant?

Why was there no visible debris from the crashed airliner at the crash site, and no human remains of the passengers and crew?

Again, a loaded question.

I wasn't there as an eyewitness, but the photos I saw of the Shanksville site were consistent with other "auger in" crash photos.  I also believe the people who recovered the human remains from the site.  Again, their description of the body fragments is consistent with dozens of other "auger in" crashes.

13. In the PBS documentary entitled "America Rebuilds", WTC leaseholder Larry Silverstein admits on camera that they decided to "pull" (meaning "implode by controlled demolition") WTC building #7.

Do you have anything to substantiate this claim and your "special definition"?  Why would anybody attempt to commit such a crime while the entire world is fixated on that area?  Why would anybody cooperate in such a crime?  Why would anybody listen to a tenant instead of the landlord about something like that?  Why would FDNY allow it, regardless of who ordered it?  What do the people at Controlled Demolition have to say about it?

WTC #7 only had isolated pockets of fire on floors 7-12.

How do you know that?  Were you in there?

How can a 47 story building be set up to implode in a matter of a few hours?

By cutting corners and taking excessive risks, I suppose.  But since it's never been attempted, we may never know.

To perform a controlled demolition, this requires a complete structural analysis of the building and explosives must be placed at the lower support column infrastructure.

What credentials do you have to make this claim?  Why do you keep referring to the Loizeaux family business, Controlled Demolition Inc., in lower-case letters?

12. Why did the 9-11 Commission completely refuse to explain the destruction of WTC building #7? How could FEMA's investigation of the destruction of WTC #7 result in their issuing a statement saying that "The collapse of WTC #7 remains unknown at this time?"

That's news to me.  Do you have any documentation to substantiate any of that?

The last I heard, #7 was destroyed because big, heavy, burning chunks of debris from #1 and #2 and the planes that struck them rained down on the building, setting fire to the massive amounts of Diesel fuel in the building, and weakening the building's structure.

11. What happened to all of the flight recorders of the four hijacked planes that day?

As with TWA flight 800, they fell under the jurisdiction of the FBI.  Unlike TWA 800, which turned out to be an accident, the 9-11 planes' flight data recorders (and cockpit voice recorders as well) remain with the FBI.

Why has the information within been suppressed?

To maintain the integrity of the FBI investigation, and in the interest of national security, of course.

AFAIK the FDR data isn't made public because the average citizen doesn't have any means to interpret the data.  When public interest is high, the NTSB does do graphical simulations for TV.  If you look for 9-11 documentaries, you might find a few of these graphics.  But these are costly to produce, and the NTSB lacks the budget to do it all the time.

The CVR transcripts OTOH are released as plain text.  Anybody is able to read the 9-11 CVR transcripts.

10. How was Flight 77 allowed to continue on it's course towards Washington D.C. while Vice President Dick Cheney sat in the President's Emergency Operations Center (PEOC) and was informed of it's direction and given reports about the plane being 50 miles out, 30 miles out, 10 miles out?

The plane's engines produce thrust, which causes the plane to move.  As air moves above and beneath the plane's wings, lift is created, which holds the plain in the air.

The Pentagon is armed with anti-aircraft batteries surrounding the entire complex.

Oh, really?  Where?  What kind are they?  What is the protocol for using them?  (Obviously there are repercussions if someone shoots down a large aircraft over a crowded city.)  When were they added?  (Clearly no such thing existed on 2001-09-11!)

Why were no defensive measures taken?

Again, that's a loaded question.

In fact, the area of the Pentagon that was hit had just been retrofitted with structural reinforcements and blast-resistant windows.  This retrofit was a direct response to the Oklahoma City bombing.  No doubt, the ongoing retrofit will include even more reinforcements.
