37. Which wouldn't be an example of woo

The modeling data was but one aspect of perhaps one of the most thorough and detailed civil engineering investigations in history. Trying to impeach the entire investigation based on but one aspect of a larger body of evidence that all points to the same direction, is woo. Anyone who doubts the NIST model is perfectly free to use the exact same commercially available software, plug in their own data, and produce their own model for review. In fact, other outside entities have also produced their own models which produced the same conclusions. The University of Edinburgh produced a model which concluded that even without the damage from the planes and Jet-A fuel, a sustained uncontrolled fire would have brought down the buildings.
