Hi!

I have just discovered a bombshell regarding the WTC and I really don't think it belongs in the "conspiracy" category because it is a well annotated and supported enquiry made by a reputable member the scientific community. Where should a discussion of this paper be posted?:

www.physics.byu.edu...

I tried to post this on the Free Republic site, where I thought everyone would be interested, but it was pulled before the moderator even had time to read it! Talk about a knee jerk reaction to a hot button topic!

Here is the curriculum vitae of the author:

Thank you in advance for pointing me to the right forum. I thought it should be in News, and if so I can make a presentation following the ATS guidelines for posting there.

Love,

Os

There are already a couple of threads on this topic;

POLITICS: Physics Prof Says Explosives, Not Fires Brought Down WTC Towers

Physics Prof Says Bombs not Planes brought down wtc

Before posting you can always use the ATS Search Function to check if the topic is already up, if so you can add to the already existing thread.

Thank you both! I did use the search, but turned up nothing. I used the author's name. OY. How embarassing.

OY.

Hey, nothing ventured, nothing gained

The search function is limited by the search terms, so sometimes you won't get a hit. So, you could used different rems to be sure it's not a dup idea. Or, you could try the ATS google search, whihc is on the same ATS page, beneath the grey box.

This seems to be a settle matte, so this topic is closed
