No, talking about possible asbestos insulation on the steel columns that failed because of heat, pancaking the towers. I understand that there was none.

Thinking that perhaps a cooler fire or less extensive one combined with asbestos insulation on the towers' structure might have prevented the collapse of the towers or given all of the occupants enough time to leave before the collapse.
