Why use thermite at all?

OK :)

I'd like to say "nice work" but, really, you put far too much effort into it. Maybe a few posts per day would have been enough. But you wasted quite a chunk of your life in a futile attept at "having fun".

Although - I seriously wonder, sometimes, whether "new troll" posters here are actually undergrad psy students testing out the tolerance of unkown internet dudes in the face of relentless irrationality. It could make for a worthwhile experiment.

Anyhoo ... see ya!

One of the problems with the use of thermite for demolition is the amount of thermite required. A truther called Jerry Lobdill wrote a paper and did some heat balance equations to determine a theoretical maximum for how many grams of steel are melted per gram of thermite depending on the final temperature of the reaction products. His calculations are sound although some other parts of this work are not.

So even the if the thermite raised the temperature just enough to melt steel then you'd get a theoretical maximum of 1.96g of iron melted per gram of thermite.

The trouble is that thermite will burn hotter than this and truthers claim silly temperatures so a figure using the 2000°C mark of 1.24g per gram of thermite is more realistic.

Then there are thermal losses to the surroundings and other considerations so a 1g of steel melted to 1g of thermite is probably quite generous.

No truther, to my knowledge, has ever performed any calculation to say exactly which columns or parts of the structure are actually needed to be cut for a collapse.

It's relatively easy to work out how much thermite is needed if you work out how much of each column needs to be melted if you have the drawings of column dimensions or are so bored you've got nothing better to do.

911 truth repeaters of lies can't do math, doubt they understand the graph.

911 truth followers don't think, they repeat what they hear. If they were able to the math, or understand chemistry, they would see how they have been fooled. 911 truth is failure.

Has any 911 truth supporter calculated how much thermite it takes to equal the heat of the office fires? No. Why? Are they unable to do the math and research to do anything more than google lies and post them at a skeptics forum?

How can anyone fall for 911 truth claims?

Is there a crazier thermite claim than this one?

Maybe LHC just likes the acid?

A couple of weeks back when I posted the lyrics I explained a little bit about the song "Spring Hall Convert" and how it was inspired by an acid trip when I was 16, during which I saw my best friends bathed in light in the hallway of my highschool. I don't know if I mentioned it but I actually took a photograph of that moment when it happened. So here is the visual side to the song.

"Because it's stupid" isn't a sufficient answer.

Other than "because its quiet", which as I said makes most truthers positions contradictory, can you think any reason why you'd use thermite? We keep asking why no answer? if you think because its stupid is wrong, then give us a suggestion.

Thermite is only because one retard decided to use it as the mystery explosive, because he had to explain the lack of explosions. Then all the little sheep retards had to keep it up.

This hits the nail on the head. :D
 
On a 1-10 scale of 9/11 ridiculousness...

Thermite in WTC towers : 4.5
Missile at Pentagon: 5.5
Believing without question an FBI investigation into 9/11: 7.5
Believing without question the politicians WRT 9/11: 9.0
Government truther confidence in the "official propaganda story": 9.5
Caveman mastermind: 10.0

SHC is a reference to a ****** wannabe shoegaze band called Deerhunter? Listen to My Bloody Valentine, I think they have a song called "911 wasn't an inside job so go and do something productive with your life"...kind of preachy.

Or listen to Deerhoof.

Where did this happen?
 
I think you all are missing the point. Obviously Mythbusters were bought in to demolish the towers and the failure to cut the car in half was simply a misinformation campaign to hide the fact that it would really work. Never thought of that did you?

I even heard that witnesses saw somebody with a beret and moustache running from the building cackling fiendishly holding a blowtorch

That was Tory in disguise. False flag operation to get Jamie's job.
