NIST's Report states that its first objective was to "determine why and how WTC 1 and WTC 2 collapsed." The Report does not fulfill that objective.
Using your own words
So if you can acknowledge that their task was not to prove how and why the towers fell then why are you saying that the official hypothesis was proven??? That is a nasty lie and it needs to be retracted.
This "nasty lie" nonsense needs to stop right now. You are inventing a strawman argument. I
Never said that the task of the NIST was
not to prove how and why the towers fell, I said that the task of the NIST was not to prove
that the towers fell.
The "official hypothesis" has been proven- for a very long time. Your rejection of the facts will not change that.
Determining why and how the WTC1 and WTC2 collapsed and discovering the reasons behind the structural failure up to and not beyond the initial collapse are not the same thing. NIST stopped short in relation to its first stated objective.
No, it did not- for the reasons that have already been explained to you- the reasons you continue to avoid and have no rebuttal to.
Its not proving that gravity works – what a ridiculous statement - rather its proving that the TOTAL COLLAPSE ensued due to gravity.
Why would you need a computer model to confirm that?
You have yet to answer this question.
gravity and the collapsing upper section of WTC 1+2 are the proposed official reasons as to why and how we observed a total collapse. But this official hypothesis was never proven through the scientific method. although you admit yourself that
#1 jim hoffman’s progressive collapse challenge still remains. I am not here to defend his challlenge but the greatest objection to his challenge is that it does not respect the scaling laws and to build a tower to scale and experiment on that is not feasible.
Yeah- pesky
reality, always getting in the way of a good conspiracy theory...
#2 no computer model pertaining to the total collapse has been provided by NIST. You admit yourself that a computer model of the collapse itself is
. yet you say
. yes it ahs been done but not in relation to the total collapse.
Equivocation fallacy. I said that modeling of the building is possible- I did not say that modeling of the total collapse is possible (in fact, I said
quite the opposite, but you don't like to quote me in full). There is not a computer in the world that would be able to accurately perform this task, and even if there was there are way too many data points to enter- for
no reason at all.
You are trying to say that since the towers can be modeled- the simulation should be able to perform a catastrophic collapse. The ignorance required to reach that conclusion is incomprehensible. They're two completely different operations.
So the question is toto – when was the offiical hypothesis pertaining to the TOTAL PROGRESSIVE COLLAPSE proven through the scientific method of experimentation via scale models or computer models?????
There is no need to prove that gravity works. If you are questioning as to whether gravity can destroy a building or not, then I suggest you start providing some pretty serious evidence- and debunk the papers I have already mentioned in regards to this specific claim.
To argue that (a) its not their task to prove the total collapse is self defeating because you are essentially admitting that NIST has not yet proven the total collapse. Besides it was the stated goal of NIST to determine how and why WTC 1+2 collapsed.
No... not "essentially admitting" that at all- because
THEY WERE NOT TASKED WITH SUCH A RIDICULOUS JOB. Are you not understanding this?
The purpose of the NIST investigation was
not to prove that the buildings collapsed, it was to find the
mechanism of the collapse so that we could learn from the collapse and build better buildings and codes.
Read that again if you don't understand it. Continuing to move the goalpost is not helping your position, and neither is misstating the NIST position or objective.
To argue that (b) its not necessary is self contradicting because you admit that there is a need for experimentation and computer models and claim to support the scientific method.
You again are misquoting me. I said that there is obvious
a need for computer modeling- I never said that modeling a total collapse is necessary. In fact,
once again- I said the complete opposite.
You're so desperate to avoid the issue that all you're going to do is try and keep misquoting me to dodge the questions.
In closing experimentation of a hypothesis is necessary in order to prove that the hypothesis is true or not. NIST or anyone else for that matter has not PROVEN how the total collapsed ensued through experimentation.
Wrong. The collapse initiation has been well documented. This is what you continue to ignore- and obviously have no rebuttal for.
So when are you going to retract your nasty and ignorant lie?
As soon as you provide evidence that it's a "nasty ignorant lie". Obviously, you're in no position to do that since all you're doing is tossing out nonsense to avoid the issues.
So as for the retraction of you nasty lie i will be timing.
So you
read my post- you just have no response? I see.
