I heard that where the planes hit showed a knowledge of their construction - too high and not enough metal would melt to bring them down - too low and the structure would have held. - but they got it JUST RIGHT!

DAK, the building were planed for an 707 impact. Aside the failure is not of the architects but as i mentioned before Airlines, FAA, Air Control and Air Force ............. procedure ...... rules of action............... not to mention the failure to recognize that we are at war on the political level ......... e.g. Powell

I'm not saying your wrong, perhaps someone should
have known,
but that the collaps was not something "I" would have
forseen and I wouldn't have feared the heat.
( as long as I hade a charged up hose close by.)
Too many firemen were lost for them to have
suspected the type of collapse they had.
