Of course it can be done but it is difficult to do and takes quite a bit of thermite. Thermate works much better and that is why Cole used it to show that it could be done. There is equivalent evidence for nuclear weapons and lasers and I am waiting for Cole to show that those can cut steel, too. My favorite theory is hacksaws hefted by a division of the Yugoslavian army that were disguised as messengers and elevator repairmen. A uniform is a uniform.

Maybe not on ATS, but I've been in debates on other forums, and Truthers are usually outnumbered. Believe it or not, there are still a lot of people out there who don't question the OS. Yes, the Truth movement is big and still growing, but I've been seen as crazy/delusional for believing 9/11 was an inside job, and I've only been a Truther for a little over a year.

What does any of it prove? Nothing. No evidence. Did you see thermate charges going off on every floor in a timed sequence? No. Did Coles thermate react fast enough to cause collapse at the speed we saw? No. Were any ignitors found for the many tons that did go off? No.
Please be a bit more skeptical even though you really want to believe in a conspiracy. There are much better ones out there that might even have a factual basis.

Fame and adulation from the technically challenged is their agenda. It is working, to some extent.

You might be able to foll the mass public, but here on ATS, are some of the most critical thinkers on the face our our wonderful planet and that back peddling garbage which is spewed from your mouths will be ripped to shreds like it already has time and time again.

What would you do if that thinker says that the towers fell because of the airplanes running into them?

I understand your admiration. Stick with me, kid, and I'll explain things to you when you get confused.

You wouldn't need the cutter charges to be visible for this to happen.
The central core would be what would have to be collapsed and the buildings central core was only damaged at the TOPS OF THE TWO BUILDINGS.
The amount of weight that was supported by the beams at the top of the building that day was negligible compared to any other day.
These things are built sturdy. This building was specifically designed to stand if flown into by a plane.
Each successive collapse would have dissipated kinetic energy. That is why the building was designed to be well...
A BUILDING.
So even if you are right...
I will play your game to get you to answer my question.
You cannot explain how the top of the building, on top of the explosions, had enough kinetic energy to pulverize itself.
That violates physics.

I think that you may be caught in a logical fallacy. How's this, " Jones is either a clever charlatan, an incompetent egomaniac, or a paid disinformation agent. Which is it?"
