thanks for the informative post, CB. i use space beams as an ad absurdum argument, even if it's not THAT absurd. the point i like to concentrate on is "UNKNOWABLES" and the relative irrelevance of knowing or proving them.
like, if a house blows up and you see it, and a guy who was filming the event says, "yeah, i planted an explosive energy source", would you need to know what colour the bomb was? or how much it weighed? or, what it's fuel source was? or, could we concentrate on the fact that a guy just blew up a house and filmed it.

That I would like to know..

I have come to a conclusion, and by taking the lessons learned from 9-11, I have worked out a company business plan.
The going rate for imploding buildings for demolition starts in the low millions of dollars.
Following this outline, you could lower your demolition costs, and charge high rates at the same time.
1. Dont use explosives.
2. Buy 50,000 gallons of jet fuel, ignite near the top, and the building will fall down neatly into its own footprint.
3. If there are 3 buildings to implode, just light fires in the 3rd building, and walk away.
Presto, time for cleanup, with all the steel in a neat pile for shipment, and all of the concrete and contents pulverized to dust.

So I have thought a bit about this today and this is the conclusion that I came to.
To be perfectly honest, this picture does kinda look fake to me.
Does anybody know the source and history of said picture.
You know what, never mind.
The conclusion I came to was that it doesnt really matter what brought down the towers.
What does matter is that they shouldnt have fallen in the first place.
All this speculation about exactly HOW it was done is pointless and a waste of time IMO.
Sure it may be fun to speculate and theorize, but it really doesnt matter what the mechanism was that brought about the collapse of the three buildings.
We know it wasnt fire and plane damage, that much is evident to most rational thinking individuals.

Dr Wood has said that too: we don't need to know the serial number of the device that did it.

Ah Brooklyn, more silly disinformation.
First of all, have you seen the rubble from WTC7? wtc7.net...

How high is it? Most people reasonably agree that THIS was a controlled demolition (maybe not CB; maybe he thinks it was destroyed by a "space beam"), and yet look at where the building went--into a small pile. Not surprising since buildings have a lot of space for air in them, and is EXACTLY characteristic of controlled demolition since the interior columns are cut into many small pieces, allowing the structure to fall into a small pile.
The fact is, photographs of the debris at ground zero do not reveal the debris UNDERNEATH the top. Nor do they reveal the fact that tons of debris was moved by trucks. It takes 10 seconds on a Google search to figure out how many trucks were needed to move the debris from ground zero (which took months of course), and how much debris there was.

These arguments that the debris at ground zero is "missing" are all classic, misleading, disinformation arguments. Of course all these arguments have been debunked and yet you continue to promote them.
"Second, Arabesque is asking the reader to take the "scientific findings" of Steven Jones as fact. "
Jones' findings are corroborated by other official studies. You can read his paper for your self and go to the sources he quotes to see that his research is supported by other INDEPENDENT studies. Don't think for yourself... indeed Brooklyn. Stop telling people what to think about Dr. Jones for starters!
USGS for example corroborates Jones observations of molten spheres. They reported a very high amount of iron rich spheres (they are "frequently seen"), which means that yes, there was molten metal.

Does anyone know how energy beams cut the columns, so that the core columns had horizontal slices and the perimeter columns failed at the bolts?
It's not asking for the serial number, which I think we all agree, would be trivial. I want to know, "how the towers were destroyed". I want to know how an energy beam from space cuts core columns horizontally and fails perimeter columns at the bolts.

Where do these beams come from?
Walmart???
Let me guess, it was that guy wit the missle on the Wolworth building??

Those beams were probably cut by another mechanism. (i.e. thermite, explosives, or something of that type.) The purpose would be to provide "evidence" of thermite/explosives.
