Why dose everyone who defends,that fire and the damage,brought down the tower, have the mentality that these very tall big,buildings where made out of
pikie stcks,?
Buildings of anykind dont implode and explode at the same time when they collapse,with just gravity.
Hell, the leaning tower of Pisa leans every day.

These things!where huge .(think about it for a min) !

They took about ( WTC 1, 2, & 7 ) 4 years each to build.
They had a combined 10,600,000 , square feet of floor space(every foot
ball field ,is about 1 acre in size) (think about that for a min)
Each floor, of the world trade center, was an acre in size.(think ABOUT that for a min).
It takes same amount of energy to destroy something as it dose to build something, nothing comes for free.(think about that for a min)
I have 2 acres of glass covered greenhouses,free span ,gutter connected (so you can stand at one corner and look out across 1 full acre of concrete
floor,) each acre is like that with a road in between each acre.
Most, that visit my greenhouses are impressed ,and say WOW, then, I tell them that village farms, tomato farm, has 200 of these all gutter
connected,which means, you can stand in one corner and look out across 200 acres of concrete floor( think about that for a min)
It takes lots and lots of energy to just keep my 2 acres heated and cooled, Imagine doing to 266 acres,which is what WTC 1,2,and 7 had
combined.Imagine cooling and heating ,to a regulated temperature,each floor, of those buildings.Imagine the energy need, and that is just to keep the
air conditioned!
So to put things in perspective.
It took a combined amount of energy of 12 years to just build the 3 buildings.
And it will take the same accumulative energy to destroy them,that is physics, no one can change that.
Whether that accumulative amount, of energy takes 10 secs, or it takes 12 years, to release ,the energy is the same.BUT the method to create that
energy can very greatly , from man made physical energy, or controlled demolition .Energy is Energy.
Its form is the only difference ( A water jet creating 5 million PSI is the same as a hydraulic press creating 5 million PSI. PSI is PSI.
ENERGY is ENERGY )
No amount jet fuel, in those planes, that day or combined with, free falling debris, had the potential stored energy, to bring WTC 7, strait down,
at just about free fall speed.The building itself had far greater energy to withstand that. Thats why it was only damaged after hit with debris, and
did not collapse after being hit by that debris.
The only thing that can release 4 years worth of stored energy in less time (just a few seconds ), is some form of external energy.
