Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe We have discovered distinctive red/gray chips in all the samples we have studied of the dust produced by the destruction of the World Trade Center. Examination of four of these samples, collected from separate sites, is reported in this paper. These red/gray chips show marked similarities in all four samples. One sample was collected by a Manhattan resident about ten minutes after the collapse of the second WTC Tower, two the next day, and a fourth about a week later. The properties of these chips were analyzed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The red material contains grains approximately 100 nm across which are largely iron oxide, while aluminum is contained in tiny plate-like structures. Separation of components using methyl ethyl ketone demonstrated that elemental aluminum is present. The iron oxide and aluminum are intimately mixed in the red material. When ignited in a DSC device the chips exhibit large but narrow exotherms occurring at approximately 430 °C, far below the normal ignition temperature for conventional thermite. Numerous iron-rich spheres are clearly observed in the residue following the ignition of these peculiar red/gray chips. The red portion of these chips is found to be an unreacted thermitic material and highly energetic. Webmaster's Commentary: Folks, this is a major story and will be totally ignored by ABCNNBBCBS. This is a peer-reviewed report in a science journal which confirms the presence of a manufactured material consisting of tiny flakes of aluminum metal coated with iron oxide discovered at four different locations in the wreckage of the World Trade Center. Aluminum and iron oxide, mixed equally by weight, is the classic recipe for thermite. This material is very fine, increasing its burn speed, and apparently has some additional components (besides the very fine granular size) which lower the ignition temperature. This report directly contradicts the official government claim that there was no trace of internal explosives in the ruins of the World Trade Center.

#192. To: litus (#171)
200 knots...sorry...typo...much slower - by more than a half - than the planes that hit the mesh steel of WTC...
LOL. That explains a lot about NPR's financial coverage.
Let's face it...you never thought I had any even though I have answered each and every one of your Moonbat questions. Why won't you answer any of my questions.
WTC towers were cement and steel framed too. Try again stooge.
God is always good!
I answered all your questions. Looks like you have Alzheimers.
God is always good!
NPR isn't a financial network and it doesn't pretend to be. They do have a podcacst "Planet Money" that does a good job of reporting - mostly a result of Adam Davidson's abilities as a reporter.
Incorrectly when you bothered to...the resident spammer won't tho...why is that? What's he afraid of?
WRONG. And you've been shown to be wrong and I can only conclude now that you WANT to PROMOTE that lie So, continue to lie, as ForwmerLurker did and, from a cut and paste here continues to do, you will go on bozo.
I've seen no evidence to convince me otherwise. The thermite BS doesn't hold water for any number of reasons not the least of which is that the collapse started at the top and then mid building and then cascaded from there...
FL is a lying shill...the picture was posted in response to him claming that there were no fires raging out of control on 9/11. It was never intended to be limited to building 7. Ask him to buck up the post...he won't...
Did he "lose", MG?
FL isn;t being ignored...he's bozo'd because he's stupid...I told him FLAT OUT he was bozo'd and if he thinks I am simply ignoring him then he's underscoring that I was correct in re his stupidity,
Not according to the article I previously posted. It was going about 200 mph...not knots:
what time and what does ATC stand for?
Which is slower than 200 knots...around 170ishMPH... probably should have read your next post before responding...sorry...
All Things Considered...think it starts around 4...believe it or not, I rarely listen to it when I am on...I hate the sound of my voice...I'll find out what time the segment airs because my sister puts it on for my 88 year old Ma...
"Attack The Capitalists".
Geez...FASTER...where am I today...
Hilarious...their coverage of this last fall bears that out...I'll give them credit though...they've yet to incorrectly slant any story in which I've contributed and I get a tranbscript every time...
So you are a financial guru who thinks he knows something about physics? THINK is the key word, you have demonstrated on this site you don't know the first thing about physics. Did you short AA and UAL stock before 9/11? I bet you did, why else would you be so defensive of the obvious government lies concerning 9/11?
God is always good!
Wrong. But don't let that stop you from putting me on bozo, you can't handle the truth very well.
God is always good!
I'm not a guru. I observe and report. Making financial decisions is not a hard proposition...in times of uncertainly stay in cash. If you take risk, make suire that it is in something that is a) people need and b) is in short supply. Just remember that for every dollar that you bet there is a dollar being taken out that beleives you to be wrong. As for physics...I paid attention in class...
Hey warbot, is that your strategy, when all else fails accuse your accuser of doing that which you do best? You have not honestly answered one single question I've asked, and you have been caught in several blatent lies and have not responded when called upon to explain yourself. You posted an image of Building 5 engulfed in flames, claiming that it was Building 7, and used it as "proof" of how Building 7 was so engulfed in flames that it had no other choice but to collapse. Well, Building FIVE did NOT collapse, and that IS the building that you showed in that picture, NOT Building 7, which only suffered a relatively minor fire yet DID collapse. You've been asked to explain yourself and given a chance to retract that post MANY TIMES, yet have failed to do so, and have CONTINUED to LIE about the nature of the fire in Building 7. You are a LIAR.
Physics isn't the class where you played dodge ball you moron.
Physics isn't the class where you played dodge ball you moron. war put you on bozo.
His problem, not mine.
Oh REALLY? Ok dokie, let's go back to what you first posted in that regard... We were SPECIFICALLY talking about Building 7 in post 67, and here's that converstation from that post; FormerLurker: Bullshit. Even if true, WTC7 was internally reinforced. Do you think it was incapable of supporting itself without one of it's exterior walls? How do you think it kept from falling while they were building it? You have so many childish assumptions it's sort of humorous, as you have to used really fractured logic to arrive at your conclusions. Oh and BTW, there were no "raging fires", there was a bit of a diesel fire inside but nothing close to a "raging fire". You think that a structure such as WTC7 would simply collapse like a deck of cards due to a relatively small internal fire a bit of damage to an exterior wall? And here's what you posted in response to post 67; Mine had gravity in it. Where were the Enron SEC filings stored? In a computer database. Oh and BTW, there were no "raging fires", there was a bit of a diesel fire inside but nothing close to a "raging fire". You're out of your fucking mind. Do I need to post yet even more pictures showing how stupid you are? You then posted an image of Building 5, using it as "proof" of "how fucking stupid" I was. Building 5 is the last visible image in that post (the last picture doesn't show, it's just a X). The image file is named http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/attack/docs/wtc5_fire_floors.jpg, which is pretty clear that it's an image of wtc5, not wtc7. You also posted an image of one of the towers for effect I guess, but it's apparent that you were trying to get away with posting an image of Building 5 and having people believe it was actually Building 7. So you are shown to be a LIAR and a SHILL, and simply retort with those words against one who first identified you as such. I used to have to post things that BAC used to try to get away with back on LP, where a day or so after he posted something he'd deny it or misrepresent what he was posting in reference to, just like you.
It's akin to a little brat blocking his ears and yelling BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH when one of his elders speaks to him... It's apparent that he thinks he'll shut me up by doing that.
He underestimated you once again.
My segment will air around 5:05EDT...
Yamasaki and engineers John Skilling and Les Robertson worked closely, and the relationship between the towers' design and structure was clear. Faced with the difficulties of building to unprecedented heights, the engineers employed an innovative structural model: a rigid "hollow tube" of closely spaced steel columns with floor trusses extended across to a central core. The columns, finished with a silver-colored aluminum alloy, were 18 3/4" wide and set only 22" apart, making the towers appear from afar to have no windows at all. Also unique to the engineering design were its core and elevator system. The twin towers were the first supertall buildings designed without any masonry. Worried that the intense air pressure created by the buildingsâ high speed elevators might buckle conventional shafts, engineers designed a solution using a drywall system fixed to the reinforced steel core.
ROFLMAO...he STILL doesn't get it?
ok, thanks. i'll try to listen in.
I did but not only in estimating his stupidity...
Does NPR still stand for Neocon Propaganda Relay? You must enjoy undermining your own credibility.
I'll be interested in your take...I try to explain things so that anyone listening would be able to grasp them...Seigal is a good interviewer too...he prepares very well and avoids being the story...
You obviously don't listen.
ROFLMAO...he STILL doesn't get it? So you don't even have the ability to just ignore a poster when they disagree with you? My, my... such a fragile creature. I think until NewYawkers demand a thorough investigation I shall do everything in my ability to alert others.
BOYCOTT NEW YORK CITY!!!!!!!
Building 5 is the last visible image in that post (the last picture doesn't show, it's just a X).

The B-25 that hit the cement and steel framed Empire State was doing abot 100 knots... [sic: later you corrected to 200 knots]
The plane impacted at an estimated speed of 200 miles per hour (320 km/h) making the building shake under the force of the collision. The high-speed crash also caused the plane's fuel tanks to explode, sending a fireball 100 ft (30 m) high and releasing blazing gasoline down the facade of the building. Sheets of flame also raced through the maze of hallways and stairwells inside the building, reaching at least as far down as the 75th floor.

war: WTC 7 was no "realtively undamaged". Almost teh whole of the South Facade was gone and fires raged within it...
#175. To: FormerLurker (#67) Apparently we studied a different sort of physics.
So you wrote to me in response to my comments on Building 7, "You're out of your fucking mind. Do I need to post yet even more pictures showing how stupid you are? "
