Mr.Jones has "interesting" comments about a lot of things Scott. :-) Steven E. Jones "Behold My Hands: Evidence for Christ's Visit in Ancient America" physics.byu.edu It seems a Mayan god with marks on his wrists must be Jesus too! Yup...the twin towers were blown up by Bush. You just proved it. Good grief! Gotta love the Democratic Underground. I'll bet Mr.Jones has an excel spread sheet that proves Global Warming as well.

Hi Stockman scott; Re: "Interesting comments from a physics professor at BYU." The guy hasn't published a reviewed article since 1998: physics.byu.edu No articles on Arxiv at all: arxiv.org Tenure is a wonderful thing. -- Carl

"It is quite plausible that explosives were pre-planted in all three buildings and set off after the two plane crashes — which were actually a diversion tactic," he writes. "Muslims are (probably) not to blame for bringing down the WTC buildings after all," Jones writes. This is rather nonsensical. If, as this guy claims, someone else planted the explosives, how did they get the Muslims to carry out the "diversion tactic"? Further, he is claiming that someone went to elaborate work to carefully place explosives in three buildings, in order to carefully drop them in place, then somehow orchestrated an additional strike involving planes and a third party which clearly ran the risk of thwarting the first step, either by toppling the buildings or by increasing the chances of getting caught. Prof Jones has the cajones to say his theory benefits from parsimony. What??
