Again the point is, there was not enough force pressing down to make the lower undamaged floors collapse.
The lower floors that were not hit or on fire held that weight up for decades, so why would they fail to continue to hold up even less weight?

You are aware of the difference between static load and dynamic loads....?
Can easily demonstrate - take heavy weight, place on top of foot. Can rest there indefinately
Now take same weight , lift it several feet, then release. Notice the difference...??
Same thing with floors. Once floor support collapsed the mass above will fall until encounters resistance
Even a fall of several feet will create an enormous force which will overload what is below it.
Take a 500,000 ton building swing it at 490 mph into a stationary 100 ton jet.

But the organization Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth has over 2000 signatories, most of whom are architects and engineers. IMO, that is consensus.
Clearly you have not read the bio's of those signatories.
Most do not have the degree's or experience to back up any claims of CD.

It's almost been an entire generation since 911.
With all these new engineers with no skin in the game why can't you get any of them to say the buildings could not have fallen from planes and fire?
Because then they would be telling lies!

Just guess work and scientific ignorance. It's not a scalable model. It doesn't accurately reflect anything.
Yet again. If you are gonna claim conspiracy you need to solve it all. Can't just point at one little bit. Every singe tiny detail needs an explanation. This is where all conspiracies fall apart.
For the doubters, could anyone of you tell me how many people need to be involved to organise and carry out this utterly massive cover up? Once you've hypothesised a number, can you explain why it's managed to stay silent?

Yeah right! Conspiracies NEVER happen. To those of us that understand physics and engineering it was painfully obvious what happened. I told my wife before the second tower fell that it was an inside job and that the buildings had been imploded in a controlled demolition. To me it's as clear as whether it's day or night outside. No question, except "who was really responsible".

Read the book "Where did the towers go" and most of your questions YOU will be able to answer yourself.

Agree with what? The evidence? Yes, there is clearly a lack of material there on the site, not to mention all the other oddities.
Dr. Judy Wood has no theories in her book, there maybe some on the foreword but that isn't written by Dr. Wood so.
Soooo.. what do I agree with? I don't know, define your question better and I can answer it.
