Hi!

Whatever happened to Steven "Thermite" Jones? Last time I heard about him he had just had that fight with Jim "Laser" Fetzer, at the same time (about) as he was retired from the University (If you dont count him not wanting to be in the BBC documentary). Has he made any more claims about thermite etc?

Cheers,

Last thing I heard he was correcting his miss statements about Dr. Greening in his paper, and the fact that lead acid batteries were near the spot where the glowing molten material was seen pretty much destroyed his thermite evidence. That and the fact that a falling building on fire naturally produces metal oxide reactions kinda put the lid on Dr. Steven Jones Ideas.
I am sure others will enlighten you further I simply do not have the time.
 
Possibly he was burned beyond recognition in a battery-acid/thermite reconstruction accident.
 
Perhaps he's busy tryingto figure out how thermite managed to burn sideways of dozens of beams at the same time.

I'm still trying to figure out how one would go about doing that. :confused:
 
Dunno...

Maybe he got traded to LC for a couple of internet psychophants and a player to be named later.

What was funny about 911?

It does make you wonder, especially when you take into account all the indignant retorts of, "You think 9/11 is funny?!" when any one of us makes fun of a truther's latest asinine theory.
 
Mr. Jones unfortunately passed away on February 22, 2002.
Charles Martin "Chuck" Jones (September 21, 1912 – February 22, 2002) was an American animator, cartoon artist, screenwriter, producer, and director of animated films, most memorably of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies shorts for the Warner Bros. cartoon studio. He directed many of the classic short animated cartoons starring Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, the Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote, Pepé Le Pew and the other Warners characters, including the memorable What's Opera, Doc? (1957), Duck Amuck (1952) (both later inducted into the National Film Registry) and Jones' famous "Hunter's Trilogy" of Rabbit Fire, Rabbit Seasoning, and Duck! Rabbit! Duck! (1951–1953), establishing himself as an important innovator and storyteller.

Well, that aint "911 humour" its "911 truther humour". The difference is huge.

Mike Williams posted a link at www.911myths.com on Saturday to Jones's latest letter to the Journal of 911 Studies debunking mini-nukes (last revision noted was January 16th). Apparently he's noticed that much of the WTC concrete was in quite fair-sized chunks, so in effect he's debunked a big part of the supposed evidence for CD (as well as the Newton's Third Law quasi-argument we saw on LCF a short while ago). I've read the letter, and although it's written in a far looser style than a scientific paper, in general it's not too woo-ish, and has an appendix on the nature of the scientific method that it would benefit all of the truth movement to read and understand; including, sadly, its own author, in my opinion.

Thanks to Mike for his continuing excellent work.

You can listen to the exchange by Jones, Fetzer and Barrett. I transcribed some of the more ridiculous parts.

Jones actually does a decent job rebutting Fetzer.

Didn't look like it, I think he was just shooting down a non-thermite related theory. There's a lot of that in that journal.

Perhaps we can hope that the more non-thermite theories he shoot down, the less space for thermite-theory, and one morning he'll just realise that...

A guy named Steven Jones was also Timothy McVey's lawyer - coincidence?

I think not.
