There were 3 buildings, the times are slightly different. They all fell close to free fall.

That is untrue. WTC 1 and WTC 2 did NOT collapse at *close* to free fall velocity. In fact, at free fall velocities, towers more than twice as high could have collapsed in the same amount of time as the observed collapse.

Let's dissect this right quick...

The claim was made that 3 buildings fell, all at close to free fall velocity. YOU claim this is a lie, citing 1 and 2 did NOT collapse at close to free fall velocity - BUT apparently do not dispute that building 7 did. If in fact 7 fell at close to free fall velocity - at a little less than half the height of the other 2, and at a time of roughly 7 seconds, that would put the free fall time of the other 2 at roughly 14 seconds (and by your own admissions elsewhere the time was about 15 seconds).

You then go on to claim that towers in pure free fall more than twice as tall could have collapsed in the same amount of time...

Apparently you didn't do so good in high school math did you?

You are right he is wrong, but not by much. It would take approx. 16.31 seconds for a building as twice as tall as the WTC to freefall with no resistance to its fall.

I have told you several times the qualifications I have that allow me to speak with some reasonable sense concerning the topic.

I don't find that very convincing given the number of times I have had to correct you about basic engineering principles and the facts in this case.

I have designed and built buildings which have proven to be far superior to elements in the area compared to ones designed by "structural engineers"...

Suuuuurrre, you have.

I have qualifications in metalwork, including structural steel.

Yet you appear to have thought the strength of steel structural elements in compression is higher than in tension. Go figure...

WTC7 is exactly like a controlled demolition.

Then why is only one demolition expert on record saying that ... and only after being led by the nose by a dishonest conspiracist as we saw in that video?

The demolitions WTC1 and WTC2 had enormous explosions with recorded seismic spikes.

No they didn't. And the folks with the education and experience to interpret seismic records categorically state that the records don't show a controlled demolition.

Weeks aferward there was hot molten steel, and evidence of thermite involved.

I guess you haven't yet looked at this:

Let's take a look at his credentials, AGAIN:

David L. Griscom, PhD – Research physicist, retired in 2001 from Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington, DC, after 33 years service.

During which time he studied silicon.

And worked on waste management and fiber optics problems.

Not structures, impact, steel, fire, demolition, buckling, concrete, etc.

He studied the MICRO BEHAVIOR of materials, Diana ... not the macro-behavior of structural materials.

But if you want to tie your own credibility to him, be my guest.

No wonder he recounted.

New Mexico Tech Vice President Romero Named a Top Lobbyist

by George Zamora

SOCORRO, N.M., Dec. 18, 2003 – New Mexico Tech Vice President Van Romero has been tapped as one of “six lobbyists who made an impact in 2003” in an article featured in this month’s issue of Influence magazine.

Romero, who is in charge of research and economic development at the research university in Socorro, was profiled in “The Players,” a special year-end feature in the national magazine which identifies a handful of prominent Washington, D.C. lobbyists who made a mark in 2003.

“From his perch 2,000 miles outside of the Beltway, this physics Ph.D. understands exactly how Washington works,” the article states. “A major chunk of his job involves lobbying for federal government funding, and if the 2003 fiscal year was any indication, Romero is a superstar.”

Romero is credited in the article with being instrumental in procuring about $56 million worth of appropriations for New Mexico Tech for the current fiscal year. This notable achievement also recently caught the eye of editors at The Chronicle of Higher Education as they ranked the university first in the nation among institutions of higher education that receive federal earmarks.

In the article, Stephen Traver, a legislative aide for U.S. Senator Pete Domenici (R-N.M.), credits Romero’s success in Washington with his having adopted a lobbying approach where “he starts with a problem that the federal government has as a priority, and then looks for solutions to that problem.”

The article in Influence also points out that “Van Romero is proof that the client can be the best lobbyist.”

"First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. Then they fight you. Then you win." --Mahatma K. Gandhi

http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/gopm/index.html

PM quotes Romero denying that his retraction was bought: "Conspiracy theorists came out saying that the government got to me. That is the farthest thing from the truth. This has been an albatross around my neck for three years."

PM fails to mention that Van Romero was named chairman of the Domestic Preparedness Consortium in January 2001, that his Institute received $15 million for an anti-terrorism program in 2002, or that Influence Magazine tapped him as one of six top lobbyists in 2003, having secured $56 million for New Mexico Tech.

The semi-vacuum was created by the explosives clearing the way for the building to fall in the time it did. Both of the towers exploded from top down. There must of been tons of explosives in it. Not a normal controlled demolition at all. The show factor for the cameras they knew would be there was apparent.
