MIT engineer and research scientist Jeff King details how the official government story violates the laws of physics and chemistry. He goes ... all » on to explain how the subsequent government investigations were designed NOT to uncover what happened. He also provides insight into what most likely happened that day.

Civil engineers don't analyze dynamic systems.
Jeff King's been a critic of the official story for a lot longer than the Scholars group or any of that has been around.
Do tall things topple over?

Professor Eagar's statement has been floating around for the past year, but doesn't really make sense at several levels. He implies that the laws of gravitation are somehow not linear, that if a small object of the same proportions (6.5/1 height to base ratio) tends to topple, a much bigger object of the same proportions will not be similarly unstable. A wooden box 1' square and 6 1/2' tall has the exact same geometric relations of center of gravity to base as a big steel box 1300' tall and 208' on a side. Nothing changes with a change in absolute size, this is the most basic Newtonian physics. Yet Eagar says "There's no other way for them to go but down. They're too big." This is complete and utter nonsense.
A mostly off-topic observation, but MIT is not an Ivy League school. The Ivy League schools are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University.

What bothers me is how people respond to experts coming out against the official story. It isn't an approach of, "Well, let's evaluate this man's claims and compare them to those given to us by federal investigations". Instead, the immediate response is, "Who is this guy and what's his problem?"
