As before, are there inconsistencies, things not witnessed or seen before, things outside of everyday norms? Absolutely! In any horrible event like 9-11 there are going to be voids, inconsistencies, things that “don’t add up”, mistakes, incorrect analysis, etc. There is no doubt of this.
And the only reason there are voids, inconsistencies, things that don't add up, etc. is because most of the evidence was either shipped off or placed under security.
A lot of these theories would be put to rest if the information was actually available to more than just the select few who get to tell the rest of the world what happened.
The problem for me, and remains, is the ay the so-called truth movement completely dismisses the massive, overwhelming and nearly complete evidence that does exist and instead focuses on inconsistencies and then portrays those inconsistencies as the average or the norm. It’s patently dishonest to do so. To engage in that, in my opinion, is to engage in propaganda.
And where would you have the "truth movement" look? The rock-solid evidence? Or to the inconsistencies that DO exist?
Some examples of the “serious” research that you (might) consider ‘evidence’
Most of your list IMO are straw men perpetuated by people to muddy the waters and make people think that the real questions are just as asinine. But, I'll touch on one.
Claims of free-fall speed collapses that still circulate even though if the claimants had done a simple wrist-watch timing of You Tube videos this would prove to be false
You might want to look into who is actually claiming free-fall speeds.
Stop trying to pass off conjecture and speculation as fact. Be willing to admit your theory is just that, a theory. Admit the weaknesses in your arguments.
Again. "Pot, you do know you are also black, correct?"
P.S. I don’t know that the building came apart at the seams. I don't know of any information that makes that assertion.
The debris pile would be a good place to start. If it didn't fall apart at the seams, then there'd be a bigger debris pile IMO.
No, but there is plenty of data of how steel reacts. It's called "materials science". Maybe a class would help?

You can continue to make your stand on the 1% we don't know. I choose to look at the 99% we do know.
Consider the post above. In that thread the dismissals pop up before anyone in the thread listened to a single word.
Exactly where you suggest. With the inconsistancies that take into account the entirety of the evidence. Again, all of the evidence.
You mention the existing evidence is rock-solid. BINGO! And what does that evidence indicate?
I agree, when you pass your final, lets talk.

I'm still listening to the first unzipped file. There is 100 of hours of it all hehe. Thats why I posted it, get you all to listen instead and summarize for me )
Any telling info would have been snipped long ago is the only trouble.
Griff .. make a new thread ? , maybe I didn't put it in the right one ?. You can do it

Do those massive core beams look explosively severed?
One opposing obvious logic might do well to remember that only happens in the movies. In reality, we look at the preponderance of evidence.
At the 1994 annual awards dinner given for Forensic Science, AAFS, President Dr. Don Harper Mills astounded his audience with the legal complications of a bizarre death. Here is the story:
On March 23,1994 the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus and concluded that he died from a shotgun wound to the head. Mr. Opus had jumped from the top of a ten story building intending to commit suicide. He left a note to that effect, indicating his despondency. As he fell past the ninth floor his life was interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a window which killed him instantly.
Neither the shooter nor the descender was aware that a safety net had been installed just below at the eighth floor level to protect some building workers and that Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide the way he had planned.
"Ordinarily," Dr. Mills continued, "a person who sets out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended, is still defined as committing suicide."
That Mr. Opus was shot on the way to certain death, but probably would not have been successful because of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands. The room on the ninth floor, whence the shotgun blast emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his wife. They were arguing vigorously and he was threatening her with a shotgun. The man was so upset that when he pulled the trigger he completely missed his wife and the pellets went through the window, striking Mr. Opus.
When one intends to kill subject A but kills subject B in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject B. When confronted with the murder charge the old man and his wife were both adamant. They both said they thought the shotgun was unloaded. Thed old man said it was his long-standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore the killing of Mr. Opus appeared to be an accident; that is, the gun had been accidentally loaded.
The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple's son loading the shotgun about six weeks prior to the fatal accident. It transpired that the old lady had cut off her son's financial support and the son, knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun threateningly, loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother. The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus.
Now comes the exquisite twist. Further investigation revealed that the son was, in fact, Ronald Opus. He had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother's murder. This led him to jump off the ten story building on March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast passing through the ninth story window. The son had actually murdered himself so the medical examiner closed the case as a suicide.
Bottom line: no, you still can't dismiss the entirety of the evidence, no matter how much you want to, and be taken seriously.

Personally, I would still think it was an "inside job" even if the evidence of the official story was a slam dunk.
George Bush is an evil bastard, isnt he?
