You're welcome.

Rumors of fires so intense they could melt steel were started by the FDNY, NYPD, FEMA, etc. and were continued by the Truth Movement. I'm still waiting for someone to tell me why they would all be singing the same song.
They weren't. 9/11 truthers, apparently too stupid to understand the concepts of hyperbole, simile and metaphor, took first responder quotes literally.

Great video with many examples of my point above, thanks Steve.

Well there's also the teensy detail of severe structural damage along with fire, but that's quibbling, right?

No?

I'll give you this Steve - I've worked in commercial real estate for coming up on 24 years and I've never had any building at 100% capacity. Ever. My current account has over 70,000 square feet available and another 52,000 coming up by the end of Q3 this year. That translates to 5 floors. So no, no building is ever fully leased and I expect the WTC was no exception.

I stand corrected on Dun and Bradstreet. Where are the floors?


You're looking into a smoke filled gash created by a 767. What stood there before was obliterated. Do you really expect to see intact structure there?
