CB <He'd rather pitch a tantrum and put me on Ignore than admit he was wrong about the asbestos. Tsk. Oh, well, one more down. >

Actually, I read the asbestos stuff and it seems that there was no asbestos in the building. 23 of 24 samples were at acceptable levels. One contained 3% or so, which could have been one little spot where a bit of asbestos was missed in the original removal of it.

The use of asbestos might have delayed the collapse or even prevented it though I suppose the replacement products were made thick enough to give a similar protection time. However, asbestos is so effective that I would not be surprised if the use of asbestos all the way up would have saved the buildings from collapse. Once the fire goes out, the building is safe [more or less though an earthquake wouldn't be all that much fun]. Having a very rapid fire with accelerant [jet fuel] is better than a slow fire because the heat doesn't have time to penetrate the insulation and get the steel to its yield point.

CB take a few days off, breath through your nose. Stop making things up about people, which is a constant habit of yours. You now say I have anti-USA sentiment. As well as making up that other stuff about me. You do realize that if you make things up about people to defame them that that's illegal and you can be sued, so be careful about the lies you propound.

Do you really respect all religions? Including those Aztecs [maybe it was Incas - religions all look the same to me] with their live human sacrifices, witch burning, inquistions and other entertainment? How about David Koresh's? Tell us more about your mystical line around Islam. Are these haloes they wear over their heads or paint lines you put around their mosques?

Carranza didn't pitch a tantrum or shriek a tirade from what I saw.

Breathe deeply and slowly. Through your nose. It's the orbits, the asbestos, the mystical line we are talking about. You don't need to try to pretend you are the smartest person on the planet with Papal Infallibility, having to personally extirpate anyone who you deem heretical. But I do appreciate the links you provide and the information and the Hubble photos are beautiful if somewhat imposing.

Mq, the Perfect and Infallible [if I can just get my modesty right, I believe I will rate as the Second Coming - and YOU are one of the first to talk to me, you lucky thing ... so far I'm uncertain about your path to heaven because there is only one true me and you seem to be some sort of countervailing force...oh, I guess the Devil incarnate].
