>>I wonder what kind of wire would have to be used that can with stand 7 hours of burning before it is used to detonate those fire proof explosive? <<

Oh surely they put it in insulated stainless steel jacketed conduit that they installed on all 47 floors easily on an off Saturday in about 30 minutes that no one noticed. That doesn't take a leap of faith to believe, does it?

Are 47 story buildings ever REALLY unoccupied? Like someone coming in on a weekend to work on a project in their office?....Nah, that's too hard to believe New Yorkers would do such a thing as to work extra.

Do you have any thoughts as to why WTCs fell straight down (pancaked) when the major collisions and fires were at one side of the buildings? How can 100 + story buildings fall straight down without controlled explosions? That one has me stumped.
