re: Look at the WT7 video again

----------

wg,

As you likely know, there have been only 3 steel structure buildings, in the history of steel building construction, that have ever collapsed from fire:

WTC1
WTC2
WTC7

There are numerous steel building fires on record, a number that began with large aircraft impacts... many that were far, far worse, hotter, and longer than the kerosene fuel fires (yes, for others than you, jet fuel is kerosene) in WTC1&2 on 9/11 that burned inefficiently and relatively cool, as evidenced by the black smoke on the videos.

As for WTC7 -- implying that the few small, scattered fires filmed were the cause the the collapse is... surreal.
