82. I like how no one elses suggestions add up. But yours are concrete.

Interesting. I personally had a friend who worked for Cantor Fitzgerald on the 90th floor. He perished. I had dinner with him just two weeks before. We were there. You'd think I'd be jumping all over your white stockbroker meme. I'm not. You have convenient answers to everything, but none of them directly address the underlying issues any more than my questions do. Do they? So why are your answers the correct ones? Because you think so? You know full well that for any "evidence" you can produce (usually produced by some governmental agency, bureau, panel, committee or hired expert), I can produce an equal number of documents refuting them. Just because you say thousands of other peoples' recollections, observations, research don't match the thousands of recollections, observations, research you've accepted as truth doesn't mean you're correct. You just offered your opinion. And you know what they're like. We've all got one.

So because Harry Houdini wasn't really a spy that means Standard Oil wasn't really a conspiracy? Electric Monk Oct 2014 #21

Did Standard Oil establish a monopoly through a mind control machine? NuclearDem Oct 2014 #61

Your lack of understanding of physics doesn't mean it's a conspiracy. FLPanhandle Oct 2014 #12

No, they're not. Atman Oct 2014 #23

I like how no one elses suggestions add up. But yours are concrete. Atman Oct 2014 #82

To quote Dr. Tyson.... Oktober Oct 2014 #86

Because yours are based on a misunderstanding of how structures are built jeff47 Oct 2014 #122

There was no heat load on the lower floors. Atman Oct 2014 #124

Because cars aren't crushed when they hit things. jeff47 Oct 2014 #125

You don't have to explain anything to me. Atman Oct 2014 #126

You make way too many assumptions about what I know. Atman Oct 2014 #127

"You can't melt steel with jet fuel." zappaman Oct 2014 #128

Actually, there are photographs of molten steel pouring out of the towers. Atman Oct 2014 #129

No there aren't. zappaman Oct 2014 #130

really, come on you are killing us here- snooper2 Oct 2014 #142

so we have established that the cia did pull off a huge ct questionseverything Oct 2014 #99

No, it actually wasn't that huge. (nt) jeff47 Oct 2014 #121

Why did there have to "hundreds of thousands" involved? Atman Oct 2014 #55

"I don't think Bush could masturbate without assistance" zappaman Oct 2014 #56

Because that's what it would take for it to be "MIC forced" or "pulling other strings" jeff47 Oct 2014 #74

I live in New England. Don't give me that "build a house" shit. Atman Oct 2014 #78

A large building has a hell of a lot more inertia than a house cpwm17 Oct 2014 #112

Wrong. zappaman Oct 2014 #113

Physics fail! cpwm17 Oct 2014 #114

Oh man I somehow missed that one! Now I understand the reference to melting chicken wire. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #120

And a 2 story barn falling down from neglect is exactly like a skyscraper hit by a plane. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #119

PNAC had me at "a new Pearl Harbor." nt valerief Oct 2014 #29

Yeah, but we're supposed to pretend none of that ever happened. Atman Oct 2014 #32

And when we did launch some interceptors Cheap_Trick Oct 2014 #33

...because prior to 9/11, supersonic flights over the US were illegal. NuclearDem Oct 2014 #77

Gee, I think we could've bent the rules for an emergency such as this. Cheap_Trick Oct 2014 #90

Even if we did "bend the rules" just that one time... NuclearDem Oct 2014 #93

Uh, we have a new invention called "radar" Cheap_Trick Oct 2014 #98

Yes, I'm aware of radar. NuclearDem Oct 2014 #102

Did you see how long it took them to intercept Payne Stewart's plane? hack89 Oct 2014 #105

You might want to look up what after-burners do to fuel consumption.. EX500rider Oct 2014 #80

Maybe if we'd sent up interceptors as soon as the first plane's transponder was switched off Cheap_Trick Oct 2014 #91

And again, how exactly were they supposed to locate the aircraft? NuclearDem Oct 2014 #95

The DoD has no way of knowing if a transponder is turned off hack89 Oct 2014 #137

Do you understand what top speed does for fuel consumption? hack89 Oct 2014 #88

I'd start here: EX500rider Oct 2014 #73

Can't trust Popular Mechanics. NuclearDem Oct 2014 #76

One of the greatest lines ever. NCTraveler Oct 2014 #36

These guys are almost as humorous as the chem-trail guys FLPanhandle Oct 2014 #41

Jet engines didn't fall to the street. Fusilage didn't fall to the street. Atman Oct 2014 #42

Whoopsie! zappaman Oct 2014 #84

Inconvenient... at best. LanternWaste Oct 2014 #101

"Jet engines didn't fall to the street. Fusilage didn't fall to the street." NCTraveler Oct 2014 #94

Same argument is made about the Pentagon plane. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #108

Correct, that was a dumb thing to say. Atman Oct 2014 #97

Bullpuckey jberryhill Oct 2014 #100

"Jet fuel doesn't burn hot enough to melt steel" NuclearDem Oct 2014 #103

You obviously don't have much experience with large fires. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #107

And then giant structures conveniently fall perfectly into their own footprint. Atman Oct 2014 #110

Yeah, over 40 buildings were damaged by the WTC falling "perfectly into their own footprint." zappaman Oct 2014 #111

There you go again, using actual facts as evidence. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #116

Yeah you are "not a truther" you just use exactly the same (false) arguments. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #115

Also, nice Gish Gallop once your original statement was quickly proved false. yellowcanine Oct 2014 #109

I was going to mention that jberryhill Oct 2014 #132

It wasn't a "dumb thing to say", it was an absolutely untrue and false thing to say jberryhill Oct 2014 #134

"it won't matter that each of them is untrue and false - it's the volume of them which is yellowcanine Oct 2014 #135
