Nice! Three lies in one post.

1) The wind blew Val's plume continuously. Her photo "accords" no such thing

2) It doesn't. Ever. Diffusion alone will keep it expanding.

3) Yes, we have. See my survey post on Page 26. We gave you two independent mathematical analyses that both answer this.
1) Get some glasses.

2) I said "dramatically". Get some glasses.

3) No, your numbers didn't explain the size of what the fireball had to be.
 
1) But you haven't conclusively demonstrated it. Calling me an idiot over and over doesn't help prove it.

2) I have. "see my blog".
I have never once called you an idiot.

Your blog proves zilch. You start with the assumption that the cloud is the wrong size and go on to show that the plume must be somewhere other than the crash site. (You've even got a spot marked "possible burn mark.")

I could pull a number out of my ass and use your logic to "prove" that the cloud was at a point mid-way between your burn mark and the crash site. That wouldn't make it true.
 

REALLY ?

Let's look at your own image.

Now, tell me these don't look like guesstimate lines. How did you precisely calculate the angle ? Do you have the actual coordinates of the crash ? Do you know precisely where the camera was pointing, assuming the cloud had moved since the explosion ? It seems to me like you're just throwing lines in an attempt at approximating the direction of the cloud, without actually knowing where it is. The fact that your lines "seem" to correspond to the angle of the camera just means your guesstimate wasn't completely off. But there's no way to know, because it's a damn 2D photograph.

Two more insults and another lie.

Your picture and all subsequent analyses are based on the size of the smoke plume, not the fireball, are they not??

I answered your question about the smoke plume. The fireball, which is not even a well-defined event, is not in question here.

To answer your question anyway, our analysis is almost completely insensitive to the size of the fireball. In case that was too complex, it means "it doesn't matter." Fireball size would have been dominated by how the fuel splattered at impact, which is almost impossible to reconstruct. I already explained this, too.
 
1) But you haven't conclusively demonstrated it. Calling me an idiot over and over doesn't help prove it.
It is the default assumption, the "null hypothesis" if you have any background in statistics or research methods. If you are challenging it, it is incumbent on you to demonstrate, to an appropriate level of probability, that it could not have happened.

For the record, I did not call you an idiot; I called you ignorant. That is clearly true.
2) I have. "see my blog".
We have. Couldn't have missed the all-purpose link. If you think it contains evidence for your ideas, you are mistaken.
 
Your blog basically says "it looks wrong". How is that evidence ? You've also drawn lines, apparently at random, ostensibly in an attempt to determine the thing's size, while apparently having already decided what that size should be. How is that evidence ?

Not to disappoint you, but the lines are not at random. They are merely of questionable accuracy due to the scale of the map and the size of the features being dealt with.

You are correct in the rest, however. Killtown says "It looks wrong." then pulls a number out of his ass for the cloud size. Then he drew his lines to relate his cloud size to the rest of the layout.
 
That's the plumes column that wasn't thick enough.

No, that's not what you said.

From your own blog:

"Her photo, which she has called "End of Serenity," has been cheered by a lot of 9/11 researchers, including myself, who have argued that her photo proves that the crash of Flight 93 is fake because the smoke plume in her photo looks more like the plume coming from an ordnance blast because of its grey color rather than from a plane crash since smoke from jet fuel fires are almost black in color."

Nothing about the column itself.

If (I stress, if) you were convinced to your own satisfaction that your analysis was wrong, would you feel compelled to apologize to Val?
 
I feel like I have to say this..

YOU CAN'T (RULE8)ING TELL ANYTHING FROM THAT (RULE8)ING PIC!

I have no expertise in fire science or anything else remotely connected to this topic, so I'll have to defer to the experts. And the experts UNANIMOUSLY say that the plume is at least plausible.

Thank you. The mods can close the thread now.

And Killtown should apologize to Val, the more abjectly the better.
 
Ok, since this is going nowhere, you guys estimate the min/max diameter that the explosion at impact had to be before we continue. Otherwise we're running around in circles.
