(PrisonPlanet)-Rudy Giuliani has been caught in a bizarre lie about WTC 7, in which he claims the building collapsed in stages over a sustained period of time, when in reality the structure fell in under seven seconds. Giuliani also reveals that he expected the twin towers to collapse but "not in the way they did."

Any engineer would tell you the building globally collapsed in just a few seconds, accelerating at free-fall. The failures that brought it on were simultaneous and instant, thus it fell symmetrically and dropped straight down into itself.
Anyone claiming, for whatever reason, that the building fell over time, is making a ridiculous argument. You might as well say the building began collapsing as soon as it was constructed, because it certainly wasn't getting any stronger.

Deltaboy, if there's one thing you've taught me, it's that you love to play with semantics and twist them to fit whatever your argument happens to be. I'm not about to argue over the meanings of words with you.
Do you have anything to say about how long it took WTC7 to actually fall to the ground once its collapse was initiated? Or, more importantly, its global acceleration?
