Go to your local salvage yard.
Obtain a section of 20 inch steel beam.
Go home and pile some office furniture on it.
Soak it in kerosene.
Light it on fire.
Let us know when the steel beam melts or sags from softening.
Like this?
(Skip to 5 mins in)
If you had to wait 14 hours to soften steel, your furnace was broken. Either that or you were heating up monumental chunks of steel. At the height of the WTC towers and in WTC7, the affected members were not as considerable as you must be thinking.edit on 1/6/12 by exponent because: fixing youtube

They make it clear in the video that exposed steel bends and twists.
The WTC steels were covered in asbestos fiber cement behind plasterboard and asbestos panels. The floor profiled metal decks were encased in cement concrete.
Burning a large amounts of kerosene under an exposed RSJ beam has no relation to what happened on 9/11.
BTW, do you realise that most I-beams in the WTC 1 and 2 were enormous and encased?

Also, you still haven't answered why you and others have devoted years to defending the OS?
Silly Truther, I'm not defending the OS, I'm standing in the way of your stupid little witch hunt.
Do you have any idea how many innocent people your so called "Truth Movement" has harassed.
Right now you are defending the actions of a Truther who downloaded a photo of a truck off of ebay and photoshoped a mural on the side so he could blame the Joo's for 911.
Standing in the way of your Witch Hunt is the right thing to do. That's why I do it.
And besides that, Truthers are a lot of fun to laugh at.

I can't believe this is still going on. Look this guy ProdigalSon888 used this fake image in his youtube video. You can see in the comments, page 6, that he admits it was made on photoshop. He was obliged by complaints to add the caption " Artist's Rendition " :-
www.youtube.com...
But aside from that I am absolutely staggered that anyone could seriously think perps would drive around New York advertising the crime. The origin of the story apparently was a toy company delivery van with a "remote-controlled plane " on the side. Not a Boeing 767 but a toy.

And what happened to the substandard fireproofing as it got impacted by the aircraft? Some professionals believe that the true conspiracy was the crappy fireproofing on the WTC is what may have contributed to their demise. It has been posted before, but strangely ignored by Truthers.
Also, are you aware that the core columns were surrounded by sheetrock panels that were dislodged by the impact? In regards to the floor trusses, all it needs is a small dislocation of the fireproofing to affect the steel rapidly.
and the whole Silverstein got money deal is just ridiculous when you consider the money sink that the new constructions have created.

I'm aware of the column geometries in the WTC. I was making the point that steel in fact can heat rapidly in fire. The twisting is after all a result of softening due to heating.
In the WTC the truss elements were the most at risk, and they were very light weight thin steel rods. They were not massive, not particularly well encased, and certainly a significant risk in a fire.
You surely can't deny these facts?

You have joined the Witch Hunt Club fairly recently and may not be aware of the things members of your club have done in the past. Like beating up a girl in a wheelchair.
Did you know that anyone that pointed a camera at the planes on sept. 11 has been harassed by your club.
They have been called liars and murderers, told their videos and photos were fakes, and have received death threats. What makes you think you should have the right to do this ?
