Except for one thing. It's insane to think that wireless would work reliably enough to be included as part of the master plan. There's so many issues with this; Batteries? Power wired to the receivers, Signal strength?, Signal boosters? Receivers and transmitters buried in walls, or Exposed? Testing to see if the signals are being received? etc. etc.

All those issues are easily taken care of.

It's insane. Certainly insane when you compare this to the simple idea that the building structure failed in the area of the fire, buckled columns as the floors fell and the weight of the building collapsed the entire structure. One is easy to believe and one is insanely difficult to believe.

First FEMA said that the floors gave way and the columns buckled. But the NIST report said the floors did not fail. It's clear that even the experts looking at this problem officially can't agree on what happened, and those ideas have changed over time. Even the designer, Robertson, says he does not understand what happened. It's amazing that you...a guy that claims two years of structural design course work...know more about this building collapse than the designer does.
