Even I couldn't plow through all of the comment so far, so please forgive if this was covered.
The first thing I think of every time I hear about 9/11 or see pre-2001 movies or TV shows where the Twin Towers are still intact is a single question I've yet to see an answer to. ANY answer. When stripped of its context, it honestly comes down to a chemistry and p-chem issue:
apparently jet fuel does not burn hot enough to melt the girders of the towers, but thermite does burn hot enough, and thermite does have a signature burn, which was shown in video on TV, so the question is: what produced enough heat to melt the girders?
Never seen a satisfactory answer--or any answer, really--to that simple question.
Anyone got anything on that?
