So funny, the Warren decode is wonderful, working perfectly, good enough for P4T to send out a press release, mass emailing, troll the web, all in support of the hijacking not happening cause the door was closed. But evidence that it was closed for all 12 flights by the same software.....and suddenly it can't be trusted....what a hoot.

Well, it's morning. A new day. Has anyone come up with a definitive reason for why the alleged FDR recorded the door being CLOSED?

Neither of those are irrelevant. Both are REQUIRED in order for the data showing the door closed for all 12 flights to be accurate.

Adam, if you think it is relevant, you will need to prove that a pilot got up to take a leak. You will need to prove that they ordered coffee or food from the attendants.
If that is your claim, then the burden of proof is upon you to prove it. You can not just state that a pilot got up for a leak and expect to be believed because you said it.

My claim is this: IF the data stating that the flight deck door was never opened is true, then none of those things could have happened during any flight recorded in the fdr. Do you agree?

Your statement is not technically correct.
The alleged FDR data does not show that the door was never opened. It shows that the door was always recorded CLOSED. There is a difference - think about it.
IF the alleged FDR data is correct and all of the door systems were correctly wired to a correctly working recording system, then it can be concluded that the alleged FDR data showed the door was always CLOSED.

You need to think about it, Adam.
The door was sampled at 0.25 Hz. It only registers a value once every four seconds.
Ok folks,
I think we may have squashed the GL arguments once and for all without even using the American Airline MX Manual.
Attached are 3 csv files. You can open them with Excel or Open Office (free on the net). They were copy/pasted from the RO2 decode we performed which you can find here.
Reserved.csv are all the reserved parameters for future use on that aircraft if the Airline wants to hook them up to be recorded at a later date.
Reserved_Spares.csv are all the Reserved Spares.
Some of the above are being recorded as you can see the digits are changing. But some I'm sure are not. Therefore you see a 0. Being that it is under Reserved, clearly some were hooked up as a "nice-to-know" parameter and the heading was never changed in the DFDAU. Those where you see a 0 may be hooked up, or may be grounded which show a zero. But it doesnt matter as they are listed as Reserved.
The last file is the most important.
Comparator.csv shows the recording for the Capt and FO Comparator.
The comparator compares Capt instruments to FO instruments to make sure they are both reading equally, if they arent within a certain tolerance, you get an alert. This is a MASTER WARN. RED with high pitched Bells/Dings!
Note that the Comparator_Fail_FO have empty cells yet the others are recording a digit. The empty cells are due to perhaps a broken line between the sensor and the FDAU.
Conclusion - (Capt Comparator showing a fail notwithstanding as that looks like it may be another smoking gun)
1. If FLT_DECK_DOOR was reserved for future use and not hooked up to record any sensors, you would see it listed with the other reserved parameters as RSVD_FLT_DECK_DOOR
2. If the data was labeled RSVD_FLT_DECK_DOOR, our article would not exist as we would know its a Reserved parameter perhaps for future use and may not be a valid recording.
3. If the FLT_DECK_DOOR was not recording but intended to record sensors. You would see blank cells as you see in the above COMPARATOR_FAIL_FO.
The FLT_DECK_DOOR was recording to the FDR and it was closed. The NTSB/FBI need to explain how a closed door indication provided by their data enabled a hijack to take place on AA77.
Copy/paste this post everywhere a duhbunker is spinning, and then watch him twist in the wind.

So if the data is correct then you agree that the door was not opened for more than 4 seconds during ANY of the flights recorded on the FDR. Is that correct?

If everything can be verifiably cheked to show that it was all hooked up, working properly and recording properly, then the alleged FDR data shows that the door was always sensed CLOSED.
