10 story hole in WTC 7

You know, one of the things that CTers seem to overlook is the unorthoday structural arrangement of the building, which is explained at some length in the preliminary report, and incorporated some weird and wonderful things such as reuse of pre-existing foundations even though locations weren't optimum.

They're so damn paranoid. Like it would kill them to allow people to freely express dissent. We let the CTists have the run of this place, until they start making threats of legal action or ignoring the rules.

I guess in the CTist world, it is the content of your ideas that get you censored, rather than your conduct.

Well, I gotta admit that I engaged in some mild name-calling, but it wasn't even directed at anyone in particular. I've seen the word used on this forum, and I dunno if it even violates rule 8 here.

But then the doofus who must've reported me called me GayLeroy after my suspension was announced.

I think they put me off for a month in the hopes that I just won't come back.

Fat chance at that.
 
HA! Off-topic, but I've just been suspended for a month at the LC forum. Does that earn me a badge, or do I need to be banned?
All the best wishes during your suspension, Leroy, it is very inspiring to the rest of us. Your bravery, your courage. We're with you all the way, just hang in there. The time will pass quickly.

Can I bring you anything during your incarceration / suspension? MREs? The 2007 WooWoo Pet Of The Year Calendar? Gravy's avatar?
 
Why the hell are the twoofers still arguing about WTC7?

- WTC7 suffered extensive damage from falling debris
- it was leaning over before it fell
- fires burned for six hours
- the FDNY feared it would collapse 2 hours before it did
- no demolition charges were heard
- no seismographs picked up explosions
- there STILL is no logical reason for a) blowing it up, and b) waiting until 5:20 pm to do it

What exactly is there still to debate on this one? "Pull it"???
 
Suddenly, everything is becoming clear.

From the Oxford Dictionary:-
story
noun ([SIZE=-1]pl.[/SIZE] stories) 1 an account of imaginary or real people and events told for entertainment. 2 an account of past events, experiences, etc. 3 an item of news. 4 a storyline. 5 [SIZE=-1]informal[/SIZE] a lie.

storey
([SIZE=-1]N. Amer.[/SIZE] also story)
noun ([SIZE=-1]pl.[/SIZE] storeys or stories) a part of a building comprising all the rooms that are on the same level. [SIZE=-1]— ORIGIN[/SIZE] from Latin historia ‘history’: perhaps originally referring to a tier of painted windows or sculptures on a building, representing a historical subject.

Yes, there are holes in whole stories about the WTC.

You think you're a smarty-pants, but what you fail to realize is that WTC 7 is their strongest evidence, which negates your points.

That sure does make it all the more sad, doesn't it?

Their best evidence is completely inconsistent with a demolition and they don't so much as have a logical explanation as to WHY the bad guys would blow it up anyway.

Destroying documents - when a paper-shredder would have worked just fine? An insurance scam where the guy takes the money and rebuilds, LOSING money on whole venture?

Good grief!

By the way, I'm Jan from Toronto. I met up with Abby, Chad and yourself at GZ the week after 9/11/06. My girlfriend says hi as well :)

Oh and that was an impressive destruction of Jason and Dylan. I laughed out loud whenever the camera caught Jason with that look of his that screams "oh crap, now what?"

Actually C7 wishes to have us say that we all believe that there was a 10 storey or larger hole in the south face of WTC 7. What he is not stating are the particulars of the hole he is talking about, one that most probably did not exist but that one firefighter did report.

NIST included that report along with several others which report similar but less extensive damage to the south face of WTC 7.

What Chris 7 wants us to state is whether or not a 10 storey gouge in the south central face of WTC 7, that extended from the wall to the core, existed.

Thing is that NIST always puts qualifiers on any statement or graphic concerning the possible extent of damage done there. It is likely that this worst reported case is not the reality that day and anyone who actually has read the report should easily see that.

C7 wishes to suggest then that NIST deliberatly included the statements and graphics to mislead people into believeing that this massive gouge did exist. In this he hopes to cast doubt and disrepute on the authors of the report.

Sorry but anyone who does not see the report's use of this statement for what it is, simply another eyewitness report that demonstrates that there was damage to the central area of the south face but that it does not claim or mean that the worst extent of damage that was reported was a fact, is not reading carefully and is only skiming or looking just at the diagrams and pictures.

I think the size of the hole is a non-issue anyway.

The building was leaning over! Hear that, twoofers? It was leaning over!

Now I'm no demolition expert, but I'm pretty sure explosive charges
don't make a building lean over hours before knocking it down. I also believe those charges make a slight bang.

Oh wait....thermite. How could I not see it?

Wrong: should be no 10 story hole*

Right

Right

Right

Right [except for always. They left out the 'possible' on pg 31, 32 and statement 1) in the Summary]

Yes. Many people believe that the massive damage as described in this report definitely occured

Sorry but anyone who does not see the report's use of this statement for what it is, simply another eyewitness report that demonstrates that there was damage to the central area of the south face but that it does not claim or mean that the worst extent of damage that was reported was a fact, is not reading carefully and is only skiming or looking just at the diagrams and pictures.
I respectfully disagree. The report is very misleading IMO
 
I think LC is having a cull.


Me, and someone else I know were both banned on the same day this week....and now that guy up above.
Who else?
 
Wrong: should be no 10 story hole*

No, you have stated that you believe that most OT's will state that a 10 storey and deep gouge existed. Perhaps the semantic problems that arise in a text only conversation rear there ugly head here....

Please do not re-write my comments. If you wish to correct me then show my statement and explain your stance separately.

You indeed would be calling into disrepute the authors of this report if you believe that they deliberatly strove to mislead readers on this or any issue. If it is a simple credibility problem then you would have to believe that it was an inadvertant error on their part. Seems to me that you have stated on other occasions that you believe it was deliberate and you have never objected to my saying you believe it was deliberate before. Have you changed your mind and now believe that it may be an inadvertant error (I don't believe it was an error at all) rather than a deliberate attempt to mislead the public?
 
Thermite goggles are standard issue CT gear...

Yes it seems Rizzo, in supply pawned off a few C-130's full of the surplus 1940's x-ray specs, on some moron. The same one's we sold kids, in the back of comics, frome the 50's onward.
They seem to trace back, to a one A.Jones of Austin, TX. The CT'ers think they work quite well, everything kinda glows. Fashionable too. I think our bonus this year, came from the sale.Shhh...

It was the "wishes to have us say" [should have been] "believe they will say"

No. I'm slaming the SOB who coerced them into publishing that insipid piece of misleading dribble.:D...........[Rember what happened to Kevin Ryan]

He made false statements and attempted to do so from a position of authority as an employee as the UL, not as an individual and was subsequently fired. Or was there something else?
We have differing opinions on why he was fired. Enough said.


About WTC 7:
Do you believe that the middle 1/4 to 1/3 width of the south face was gouged out from floor 10 to the ground ?
[as stated in the NIST report]
