I was going off of freefall times that someone else came up with. According to this video, freefall for flat steel beams would be 5.6 seconds over the distance of 100 meters.

So we divide 100 meters into the height of WTC 2 (415m) We get 4.15.

4.15 X 5.6 = 23.24 seconds.

é = alt 130

Seems to work in Word and Wordpad, not the Internet Explorer box you type the posts in, or in Notepad.
