Bio on Paul Laffoley

http://www.laffoleyarchive.com/laffoley_writings/bio_laffoley.html

LAFFOLEY ARCHIVE: Paul Laffoley Biographical Info CONDENSED BIOGRAPHY:

Laffoley attended Brown University, graduating in 1962 with honors in Classics, Philosophy, and Art History.

In 1963, he attended the Harvard Graduate School of Design, and apprenticed with the sculptor Mirko Basaldella before being dismissed from the institution. He was dismissed for "conceptual deviance", after the majority of his designs were given a grade that designates the project not as good or bad, but as 'currently technologically or physically impossible'.

Thereafter, he moved to New York to apprentice with the visionary architect Friedrich Kiesler. He was also hired for the design team of the World Trade Center, but was soon after fired by the chief architect, Minoru Yamasaki, for his unconventional ideas. He had apparently always been quite an 'unconventional' person. By Laffoley's account, he spoke his first word ("Constantinople") at the age of six months, and then lapsed into 4 years of silence, having been diagnosed with slight Autism. Laffoley has written that, in his senior year at Brown, he was given eight electric-shock treatments. As a child he attended the progressive Mary Lee Burbank School in Belmont, Massachusetts, where his draftsman's talent was ridiculed by his Abstract Expressionist teachers. Subscribe to *9-11*

Sounds like a distracting piece of disinformation to me.

The building was perfect for controlled demolition, but that doesn't imply daddy or junior bin Laden. The dancing art students were Mossad.

(BAC is quiet on this one; take note.)

disinformation

to all of you...paul laffoley is sincere...i'm the guy who interviewed him and he is my friend...

he is an extremely accomplished and visionary architect and artist who used to hang out with guys like buckminster fuller and WAS ON THE ORIGINAL WTC DESIGN TEAM UNDER MINORU YAMASAKI...he is considered an absolute polymath and genius by any who encounter him...i had no idea he had worked on the original wtc design team in the early 1960's until i interviewed him in february...i also had no intention of talking about 911 or anything like that...the program was focused on art, imagination and creativity...hah...but this little gem came out when we were talking about his background...

but i'll tell you this...he is for real and knows a great deal about the construction on the wtc comlpex...and we will be talking more about it in the near future...

I'm going to take all of this with a large grain of salt.

Laffoley said that buildings in the early 1960s and 1970s in New York were built to be brought down by controlled demolition.

you don't think this is plausible?

Try to imagine an engineer involved in a great work - designed to be destroyed. That just doesn't pass the smell test.

The core columns, by coincidence, were a demolition expert's dream come true; but I can't believe that was the intent of the design.

Of course, we bring the bin Ladens into it, for authenticity!

If that had been the case, the towers would have come down in '93.

I smell Red Herring PSYOPS.

Any rational person would know that one day in the future the Towers would have to come down. No skyscaper has ever been built that will last forever.

A design taking into the consideration the absolute fact that one day the building will be coming down sounds plausible to me.

I am not suggesting and Paul Laffoley was not suggesting explosives were included in the design. Laffoley is making the claim that considerations were included in the design for the day that the building would come down.

Consider a scenario where due to an earthquake,hurricane or a design flaw a building the size of the Towers in downtown Manhattan was in imminent danger of toppling.

Time would be critical.

You can make the case that a design which included the ability to rapidly prepare the building for demolition would be the responsible thing to do.

Sounds reasonable, but I wouldn't want to base my case on the word of a guy with an extra-terrestrial metalic implant in his brain. hehehe

People that were actually part of the design process and are willing to talk candidly are rare.

Just one more piece of a complex story.

Paul Laffoley provides directions for inquiry.

Was the WTC designed with considerations for demolition in the event of imminent uncontrolled collapse?

Was the bin Laden Company in anyway connected to the construction of the WTC?

If either of these claims are true,there should be ways to independently verify the claims.

Hmmmmm, that is an interesting question.

From post #21 - The collapse of the WTC towers looked like a classic controlled demolition, said Mike Taylor of the National Association of Demolition Contractors in Doylestown, Pennsylvania.

Just so your readers don't get the wrong idea, neither Mike Taylor or the National Demolition Association thinks bombs brought down the towers. Nor has even ONE of the roughly 1000 firms and 20000 workers in the industry said they did. A great conspiracy?

From post #25 - Jeff King, another important 9-11 cover-up researcher.

According to Jeff (http://www.plaguepuppy.net/public_html/letters/), he spent his first 2 years at MIT as a math major then work for small electronics manufacturer before going back to complete a dual major in Electrical Engineering and Biology. After graduating from MIT in 1974, he went to med school at UVM in Vermont, then spent a year at the Harvard School of Public Health in the Pulmonary Physiology lab doing electrical and mechanical engineering work before deciding to do an internship and practice clinical medicine. For the past 25 years he has been employed as a family physician ... NOT an engineer ... of any sort. In fact, at the above source (which is, by the way, his own very K**KY conspiracy website), you can see him state that "the "MIT Engineer" caption on the video was not my doing". Now he (and you) may think that what he learned 30 years ago about electrons qualifies him as an expert on analyses and behavior that REAL structural engineers and demolition experts spend years and years to acquire, but he's only fooling himself.

From post #28 - Paul Laffoley provides directions for inquiry.

ROTFLOL!
