RE: "But the truth is that, as the combustible material was consumed, the fire would have become smaller not bigger. Which, in fact, it had."

The clip that shows the seismic event, also shows quite a bit of flame coming out at the beginning of the collapse. Orange flames are also visible over what looks like most of the floor ahead of the collapse.

I don't think it's possible to put much credence in the idea there wasn't much in the way of fire going on. Where the official story breaks down is with the "jet fuel" spin that was put on the melted steel theory. The propaganda machine touted "jet fuel" as being something akin to stuff suitable for sending rocketships to the moon. The melted steel theory would have been a much harder sell if the media had presented this modern pyrotechnic wonder, used to propel jets at supersonic speeds, as what it really is; kerosene - the same stuff our great something grandparents used in lamps before electricity was available.
