Yeah I have read the popular mechanics article before and still don 't buy it. There are other articles written by other engineers and scientist who state otherwise.

Funny, if I have doubts about the church some people will say that I am an anti-Mormon hater. If I have doubts about 911 I am a conspiracy theory nutcase.

How do you explain the british media reporting the collapse of building 7 before it actually happened?



The emergency services on the ground had been worried about the potential collapse of building 7 for most of the day and became so concerned of its imminent downfall (the building started bulging) that the site was evacuated of all personnel from (If I recall correctly) around 2pm.

It's not a massive leap to speculate that a BBC source at the scene reported "an imminent collapse", yet the studio heard "collapsed". Given the chaos of that particular day I think that may be the most reasonable explanation.

But let's not turn this into a 9/11 thread - Prickky, why not start another thread in "off topic" so we can play around with it for a bit?

Good Idea, but I seem to be gagged and bound at the moment?

TMI :lol:
"Any over-ritualized religion since the dawn of time can make its priests say yes, we know, it is rotten, and hard luck, but just do as we say, keep at the ritual, stick it out, give us your money and you'll end up with the angels in heaven for evermore."
