Hi Alfie,
There are quotes from several people about molton steel, there are also quotes from people who pulled out steel beams, the ends of which were
dripping.
[A report in the Johns Hopkins Public Health Magazine about recovery work in late October quotes Alison Geyh, Ph.D., as stating:
Fires are still actively burning and the smoke is very intense. In some pockets now being uncovered, they are finding molten steel.]
This one is interesting as it also mentions some kind of caulk,
[A publication by the National Environmental Health Association quotes Ron Burger, a public health advisor at the National Center for Environmental
Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, who arrived at Ground Zero on the evening of September 12th. Burger stated:
Feeling the heat, seeing the molten steel, the layers upon layers of ash, like lava, it reminded me of Mt. St. Helen’s and the thousands who fled
that disaster.]
[An article in The Newsletter of the Structural Engineers Association of Utah describing a speaking appearance by Leslie Robertson (structural
engineer responsible for the design of the World Trade Center) contains this passage: As of 21 days after the attack, the fires were still burning and
molten steel was still running.]
[ Peter Tully of Tully Construction of Flushing, N.Y., and Mark Loizeaux of Controlled Demolition, Inc. of Phoenix, Md.Tully told AFP that he had seen
pools of “literally molten steel” in the rubble.Loizeaux confirmed this: “Yes, hot spots of molten steel in the basements,” he said, “at the
bottom of the elevator shafts of the main towers, down seven levels.” The molten steel was found “three, four, and five weeks later, when the
rubble was being removed,” he said. He confirmed that molten steel was also found at WTC 7, which mysteriously collapsed in the late afternoon.]
You can make of the above what you will, but it is important that all the above are specific to describing what they saw as "Molten steel" something
that even Steven Jones himself first related to as "molten metal" most of the workers whos' quotes I haven't used here, all mention "molten
steel" and molten, or dripping steel girders.
