Ray, bless his heart, lives in a fantasy world, populated by goblins and gremlins, disguised as humans. It was the gremlins what done it to the Twin Towers by planting explosives at all the key points. Yet, strangely, he thinks it's me who lives in a weird fantasy world. <"I've seen enough photographic and video evidence to realize that the buildings exploded"> He shows us that photo and all I see is a building collapsing, as I'd expect it to from structural failure causing the big load up above to start moving - as the big load [like a moving train] reaches the next barrier [remaining structure], the resistance is far less than needed to both STOP the descending mass as well as support it. The floors were designed to carry people, and filing cabinets, not thousands of tons of stuff descending at a good speed from up above. Ray is obviously not an engineer, but has earned his living by moving words around, not reality. As the descending mass arrives at a floor, the air gets squeezed outwards, along with loads of debris, being flicked in all directions by impact, bending and breaking, giving Ray's "explosion" appearance.
