convincingly to whom? You? Or somebody who actually matters?
Just little old me and the rest of the world.

That could have been more than difficult.True. and you could fill selected columns right up to the 88th floor if you wanted. Even if you thinned out the core columns by entirely melting say one third of the entire core column structure the building would still stand. (The core had a factor of safety of 3 or more) And if you sequenced the melt fom bottom to top the melted steel would all drain down into the basement where it would remain bubbling for say ....Oh....three or four months.

Sounds fair to me.given that this thread is largely to give tips to members of the jref team in the matter of the coast-to-coast debate I think I should be allowed to pass on potential ideas to members of the other side who may well be monitoring this thread.
The only answer I can come up with is; you have to be kidding... right?Remember the famous Dr. Astaneh-Asl who examined some of the WTC fireproofing and appeared to be quite surprised at it's glassy texture ? Nice tubes for the melted steel to flow through down into the basements no doubt.
If they could stop laughing long enough, yes, it would be interesting.It would be interesting to watch the debunkers answer convincingly.
I think you should ask Harrit if the core columns ( which were all hollow) could have had the nanothermite pumped inside them. Ask him if the many tons he posits could have been hidden in this way until ignition.
The difficulty is in getting him to acknowledge it.
If anyone wants to prove waterboarding actually works, using it to get a truther to acknowledge evidence they've been shown would be the ultimate test. They've resisted everything else.

So the poor jref team doesn't seem to be getting a lot of tips right now. They will have to go out there and be made fools of by Richard Gage's Truth Team at this rate
Come on guys....lend a hand or watch your colleagues crash and burn on the coast-to-coast debate...

the only way richard gage could make someone else look like a fool is for that person to find something more ridiculous than cardboard boxes to simulate the WTC. and i pretty sure heiwa covered all of those already.
Is this debate going to happen? When?
Any thoughts on the photograph Fess provided, Bill?
How is your magic thermite going to flow through columns that have ben sealed and riveted at both ends?
No problem. Each section is individually filled. When that nenothermite ignites the steel nelts instantly plates and all.
In WTC2 I think there was a problem where there was a blackage around the 82nd floor when the melted steel coming from above was impeded ,broke the fireproofing sheath and some of it flowed accross the floor and out the window as we all saw.

So Bill - how do you know this was melted steel, and not melted aluminum from the airplane fuselage? (I'm presuming you might know that aluminum melts at much lower temperatures than steel...)
Just curious ...
Dave
I doubt it. The plane would have beeen in a million widely dispersed pieces and this looked like a large spreading pool that eventually pushed some molten steel out the window.
But you are free to believe it was the aluminium if you want.
Likewise, you are free to answer the question I asked, and provide even one scrap of evidence that this was flowing steel.
If you want.
Just so we're clear, "I doubt it" is not considered Evidence, but rather Opinion.
Dave
I don't do those pointless arguments about whether it was steel or aluminium any more. I just go on the likelihood,
