CTBUH weighs in on NIST WTC7 and Truth Movement

[Travis]

The CTBUH, or Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitats, is conferring on the implications of the NIST WTC7 (see here) report but in a specific response to the proposed Conspiracy Theories:

I believe that the NIST report is a responsible attempt to find the cause of the failure, however there are many questions that are not answered in any detail and several of these questions are already on the discussion forum. I think that with a responsible dialog and debate that the NIST report can be much better and clearer than it is in the current form.

However, that being said, I would like to be clear that I see no credibilty whatsoever in the 911 truth movement and I believe, like the vast majority of tall building professionals, that all the failures at the WTC ( WTC 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7) were a direct or indirect result of the planes that were flown into the two towers. I have carefully looked at the evidence that the 911 truth movement presents and I cannot see any evidence of a controlled demolition. Unfortunately the 911truth movement web site does not allow any opinions contrary to their own, or I would have presented my views.

Must be irritating having all these experts be such shills for the big, bad, vast conspiracy.

To twoofers, this becomes:

"There are many questions that are not answered in any detail"

...and two months from now it will be in a youtube video as proof the "official version" doesn't make sense without any mention of the rest.

My exceedingly low expectations of the Truth Movement compel me to concur.

Who in this forum is in charge of NWO payroll? I am curious how much we paid The CTBUH for that response.

What is the 911truth movement web site? There is an official 911truth movement web site?

 

[Travis]

As expected, nitpicking an irrelevant point while ignoring the larger issue that an expert on tall buildings sees the conspiracy theories as having no merit.

Bravo.

I don't know if it's irritating to the twoofers, but I quite like seeing reasonable professionals actually raising reasonable questions about the NIST report, as in this post:

The difference between this post and the typical twoofer rant is .... well, I can't think of a sufficient adjective. Dr. A? A little help?

And this proves intentional demolition how?

The difference between this post and the typical twoofer rant is ....

... similar to the difference between this (functional, elegant, and well-crafted) and this (well, click the link and see for yourself).

Unless those questions are about evidence of explosives, and they are not, I fail to see how the existence of questions about the report validate the conspiracy theories.

Only takes 3 hours and 6 minutes here:

Good old RedIbis, you can always count on his intellectual dishonesty!

Do you even read the threads you respond to? It wasn't even two months, it was, like two and a half hours!







ETA: Damn slow fingers!

Were this an engineer forum, and you an engineer, that might be a larger issue. As it is, you are just quote mining for the delusional nutcases as had been predicted.

Could you pm his e-mail if you have it? His views would be very welcome at The 9/11 Forum where a fairly large number of both debunkers and truthers actually have civil and constructive discussions.

Good? You over-estimated by, like, 59 days, 21 1/2 hours! What do you do for a living, car repair?
