Take a peak at this video at 6:15 - Notice what happens to the steel columns...
When dust disintegrates to smaller and smaller nano-sizes, it generally floats UPWARDS into the atmosphere...
Yes he did say that... watch this whole video OR just nip in at 0:20 and again at 1:00.

HelloBruce is attempting the classic debating technique used by those who don't have truthful facts to dispute valid observations presented to them > this technique involves (aside from mockery and sarcasm) primarily the attempt to SHIFT the focus of the discussion AWAY FROM THE EVIDENCE.
HelloBruce, I am happy to engage you in debate, buy many posts ago I presented 3 POINTS. The reason being that it is first essential to determine accurately WHAT the crime was... then we can discuss the WHY, HOW, WHO... etc. > so in case you missed it, I will right here re-post those 3 basic points, and ask you to STAY ON TOPIC AND PROVIDE ANSWERS TO THESE THREE QUESTIONS (no distractions, no attempting to divert the discussion elsewhere - just stick to these three points, then we can move on... READ CAREFULLY:
"So let's take 3 core pieces of evidence and see if some doubters can refute:
POINT 1) If the towers ( WTC 1 and 2) were "brought down" by bombs or planes then the entire weight of the buildings 500,000TONS EACH would have come crashing down in less than 12 seconds.
TRUE or FALSE?
2) Assuming POINT 1 is true, then there should have been a corresponding seismic signal.
TRUE or FALSE?
3) Assuming POINT 1 is true, then there should have been a rubble pile higher than 1 or 2 floors tall.
TRUE or FALSE?
4) Assuming POINT 1 is true, then the "Bathtub" (retaining wall holding back the Hudson River) would have surely been damaged and NYC would have been flooded.
TRUE or FALSE?"

Bedlam... all due respect to you, but I can see that perhaps you are a little bit confused.
Because: if that were the case then,
1) the seismic signal would have been at least 5.5X stronger that it was -
2) the rubble pile would have been MANY TIMES HIGHER
3) NYC would have flooded due to a cracked bathtub.
WHAT THEN, COULD HAVE CAUSED THE BUILDINGS TO COLLAPSE AND NOT:
1) SHAKE THE EARTH SIGNIFICANTLY
2) LEAVE ALMOST NO DEBRIS BEHIND
???
The [May 30th 2002] ceremony marked the end of cleanup efforts after eight months and 108,342 truckloads of debris.
1,462,000 tons of debris had been received and processed
35,000 tons of steel had been removed (165,000 tons were removed directly at Ground Zero)
Over 55,000 discrete pieces of evidence had been recovered
time to move on in this discussion or do we allow trolls to bore us to death and kill this forum?
