Well, its kinda hard for people to use facts when the OS isn't one of them!

While you may disagree on the level of uncertainty in some of the explanation and point out the absence of public evidence available, it still seems like the best working explanation of events until contradictory evidence is brought forward.

THEY SAW THE LOGO OF AMERICAN AIRLINES.........
THEY SAW THE WINDOWS.......

Completely false....
YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THAT THE BUILDINGS STARTED TO COLLAPSE FROMTHE TOP ( not like a controlled demo,) THAT THE DEBRIS FROM THE TOP THAT FELL OUTWARD "DID" FALL AT FREE FALL , BUT THE CENTRAL STRUCTURE OF THE TOWERS TOOK MUCH LONGER THAN 10 SECONDS TO FALL.

Too bad they also had an eye witnesses who stated "we did not know what hit the Pentagon, we were told later it was a 757".

If they stated they did not know, and were told later, then they were not eye witnesses, they are repeating what they were told.
Thats just hear-say.

You can type in Caps all you want, it wont change the facts.
NIST says the buildings fell in 8 and 10 secs.
NIST is the Official Story.
If you don't agree with that , Welcome to the Truther Side.
NIST estimated the elapsed times for the first exterior panels to strike the ground after the collapse initiated in each of the towers to be approximately 11 seconds for WTC 1 and approximately 9 seconds for WTC 2. These elapsed times were based on: (1) precise timing of the initiation of collapse from video evidence, and (2) ground motion (seismic) signals recorded at Palisades, N.Y., that also were precisely time-calibrated for wave transmission times from lower Manhattan (see NCSTAR 1-5A).
.............
From video evidence, significant portions of the cores of both buildings (roughly 60 stories of WTC 1 and 40 stories of WTC 2) are known to have stood 15 to 25 seconds after collapse initiation before they, too, began to collapse. Neither the duration of the seismic records nor video evidence (due to obstruction of view caused by debris clouds) are reliable indicators of the total time it took for each building to collapse completely.

I hate the 9/11 debate.
for one thing no matter how much documentary evidence in support of the OS is brought forward, and no matter how many different, CONFUSING, theories oF conspiracy are postulated, it seems to me that there are two items that cannot be quoted as 'facts', and yet they give the lie to the whole episode.
Flight 93 crashes INTACT and buries itself COMPLETELY into the ground.
Flight 77 crashes into the pentagon and disappears COMPLETELY into a 16 foot hole
In both cases there is no sign of wings, major body parts, tailplanes etc.
Now, having read the reasons given for this, I would like, just once, for someone to show photographs of other air disasters thats have taken place with the same outcome.
Ive seen plenty of aircrashes over the years, including Lockerbie, I don't recall ever seeing any where the plane just 'dissapears'.
Its not a lot to ask, so please, OS proponants, show me!
Otherwise the debate should not be about which theory is correct, but about WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT!

Yes, and how many eye witnesses saw a 757 but were ignored in the films " 911 IN PLAIN SIGHT" and " LOOSE CHANGE"
Why not stick to the facts instead of taking suppositions as fact.
