JBC, although I have no intention of getting into a long drawn out debate on the subject, I will address just one of your points. There are strong feelings on both sides of the issue, people have to make up their own minds, but you stated the following:
"And oh, how about the primacord? There would have had to have been thousands of feet of it laid before hand, I think someone would have noticed in a fully occupied building? Don't you?"
The possible answer to your question can be found here.

WE RECEIVED THE FOLLOWING from someone who worked for Fiduciary Trust on the 90th, 94-97th floors of the South Tower:
"On the weekend of 9/8,9/9 there was a 'power down' condition in WTC tower 2, the south tower. This power down condition meant there was no electrical supply for approx 36 hrs from floor 50 up. I am aware of this situation since I work in IT and had to work with many others that weekend to ensure that all systems were cleanly shutdown beforehand ... and then brought back up afterwards. The reason given by the WTC for the power down was that cabling in the tower was being upgraded ...
"Of course without power there were no security cameras, no security locks on doors and many, many 'engineers' coming in and out of the tower. I was at home on the morning of 9/11 on the shore of Jersey City, right opposite the Towers, and watching events unfold I was convinced immediately that something was happening related to the weekend work." |
