Can you explain it's oddly fast and totally destructive nature?
The collapse of each of the WTC buildings was such that there was nothing that could have stopped the collapse.
Or do you shut down all possibility of open mindedness on your part because he didn't just say "fell real fast..."?
None of the WTC buildings fell at free fall speed. I think you missed this video, so I will post it once again.
I'm going to call 'OS Truthers' 'OS Activists' because they are not searching for the truth.
I also know that what the OS states is NOT what actually happened.
So you expect others to provide years worth of researched truth, just to be allowed to have a differing view, but the only thing you offer to justify your hard stance for the official story is "The collapse of each of the WTC buildings was such that there was nothing that could have stopped the collapse."
What I do know is that we have never been told the truth behind 9/11. I know that we have a right to know.
I know that if everything checked out to be as the OS states, there would be no questions.
I also know that what the OS states is NOT what actually happened.

I might add that disinformation has clouded 9/11 over the years. I have caught truthers on many occasions posting false and misleading information.
Of course 9/11 happened what the OS states. Experts have confirmed the OS as well.

You might want to go through their membership to see how many are actually experts in those particular fields and then compare that number to the total number of people in those fields. Seeing Kevin Ryan, the fired water lab boy, commenting as an engineering expert is rather funny.

He is (or was) a member of A/E911truth. He is one of the people Nova apparently considers an expert in the field of architecture/engineering. And, he first came out, with his malarkey about UL certifying the steel for the WTC as if he was qualified to comment.
And yes, quite a few of the people listed on A/Es page were not experts in the fields.
Using ad hominem-type arguments that question with no justification whatsoever the credentials of those putting the counter-argument is the last refuge of someone who has no sound criticism to make about the arguments of 9/11 truth proponents. Ryan never regarded himself as an "engineering expert" as you falsely want to claim in order to support your vacuous ad hominem. Your accusing 9/11 truthers of dodgy arguments is like the pot calling the kettle black.

You might want to look at this page.
a&e experts
Just on the first page we see IT eng. - Waste water eng. etc.
Would you call these people as 'expert witnesses' in a 911 demo case?
You also have to question whether an 'architect' is qualified to determine physical conditions of a building.
That is the job of a 'structural engineer'.
Maybe I should sign up too just to see if they take me.
