Are you kidding? <How come we don't see the same level of investigation into these 4 crashes?> It's well-known why they crashed. There is no puzzle. Also, would you think you would do very well in finding the small remnants of the aircraft among the rubble of the Twin Towers, the hole in the ground or the hole in the Pentagon? At most there would be small metal fragments, bent into unrecognizable form. Not to mention oxidized and melted in the case of the Twin Towers and I suppose the Pentagon. There is nothing to reassemble and ponder. Mqurice

Hi Orcastraiter; Re: "Clearly WTC#7 was not hit by a plane...yet it collapsed symmetrically and straight down in free fall time." I went and read the FEMA report. Let me give you the short version. WTC7 was next door to one of the WTC towers. When the tower collapsed, it injected burning debris all along the south (hidden) side of WTC7. That started fires in WTC7 that burned for 7 hours. Firefighters didn't try to put out the fires and eventually the building fell down. End of mystery. When you go around putting this up as a conspiracy, you have to answer a whole bunch of questions. Why don't you explain to me EACH of the following: (1) It's well known that Pres. Bush and pals are fairly stupid. Why should we suspect them of having pulled off a success here? (2) Why bother with destroying WTC7? What was the purpose? (3) Why wait 7 hours to blow the charges that destroyed the building? (4) The building was burning for 7 hours. Wouldn't that have tended to do things like, well, set off the explosives that were waiting around in there for all that time? (5) Have the conspiracy theorists built a computer model of the building and done a simulation of the fire? (6) Why bother arranging for the building to collapse on itself? Wouldn't it be more logical to arrange for it to fall on to the remains of the taller building? Or onto one of the neighbors if destroying more buildings was the objective? -- Carl
