I have a few problems with the NIST report. First off, they didn't test for explosive residues.

I don't think they should have done that, the NFPA 921: "Guide for Fire and Explosion Investigations" does.

Um, if you say so.
They weren't non-operational, they just weren't prepared. Don't know if you remember 2001, but the US wasn't at war yet.
This is a lot of assuming based on nothing concrete that I can find. The building is held together by horizontal beams,

NOTHING that fails a-symmetrically, will change it's nature in mid-event and collapse symmetrically. It defies physics. Unless by design.
The NIST, and OS ... are setting up a theory ... they need to prove this theory. And it should be very simple to do so, you just make a down-scaled model of the towers, and show me ... that it fails the way it did.
But, what it basically comes down to is this ... the structures were faulty, built like dominos or matches, without sufficient fastening between them. So basically, you went to war and killed over a million people, including women and children, to cover up undercut building projects.
I mean, this official conspiracy theory ... isn't going well ...

As I said, you are just a religious freak ... an ignorant redneck, who goes around saying "sieg heil", and "god bless our fuhrer". There is no difference, only the kind of funny accent used.
Really? wow ... I don't care how cheap you build buildings, I wouldn't hire you to build anything, except for a tent ... and even then, I'd expect you to have the intellect to know that even a tent, has vertical beams that are responsible for it to have air inside.
How the tilt was arrested?
That's a stupid ass "theory"... It wasn't "arrested". The potential for it to collase down was stronger than the potential for it to magically slide off.
Unless you know of some horizontal force none of know about the tilting was simply the inital stage of the vertical collapse.
As far as seeing the core goes you, like seemingly EVERY truther don't seem to realise that the outer skin was LOAD BEARING.
You can't bring down the walls, one floor at a time, by destroying ONLY the core.
The explosions would have been timed as well and would have should up as SPIKES at a regular intreval on the .wav of any video taken... guess what... they don't... they didn't happen...
As for free fall velocity, you're right, shouldn't have used the word speed...
this DID NOT look or behave like ANY known demo... and people saying that are being dishonest.
You can try and imagine a fanciful scenario where they, for some reason, did all of this elaborate timing nonsense, but it's just soooooo highly implausible...
However the French demo system has these attributes:
No explosives
Accelerating top down collapse
Building falls straight down
triggered by the destruction of a weakened floor in the building...
Which is more likely? This this which produced EXACTLY the same scenario...

I'm pretty sure every single person I've encountered here, including the "debunkers" all say that that the government lies. Hell, I know for an absolute fact that the government lies. My father even remembers in the NSA, looking at classified documents and seeing the president denying everything that was related to them.
But the TM will do, and has done....... exactly nothing of consequence.

9/11 truthers made the fatal mistake of treating the subject as though it was an academic problem and then playing the game of one-up-manship with their fellow truthers over who possessed the correct answers. They never paid attention to the REAL problem: how to sweep aside all the political and judicial obstacles that the American establishment would put in the way of any REAL, public attempt to open the can of worms that would tear America apart for years if this ever happened.

Yeah sure...that's why you and your associates are on "alleged" conspiracy sites over ten years later pleading your case by parroting disreputable mainstream media/government lies. Seems like a lot of time and effort being expended countering something that is "nothing of consequence".

That's a guideline for firefighters to use when investigating a fire of suspicious origin. the origin of the fires is NOT of suspicious origin. Remember the planes/jet fuel?
Radio, television, and radar transmitters create fields of electrical energy that can,
under exceptional circumstances, detonate electric blasting caps. Certain precautions must be taken to prevent accidental discharge of electric blasting caps from current induced by radar, radio transmitters, lightning, adjacent power lines, dust storms, or other sources of extraneous or static electricity. These precautions shall include:
Ensuring that mobile radio transmitters on the job site which are less than 100 feet away from electric blasting caps, in other than original containers, shall be de-energized and effectively locked;
The prominent display of adequate signs, warning against the use of mobile radio transmitters, on all roads within 1,000 feet of the blasting operations;
Maintaining the minimum distances recommended by the IMES between the nearest transmitter and electric blasting caps;
The suspension of all blasting operations and removal of persons from the blasting area during the approach and progress of an electric storm.
After loading is completed, there should be as little delay as possible before firing. Each blast should be fired under the direct supervision of the blaster, who should inspect all connections before firing and who should personally see that all persons are in the clear before giving the order to fire. Standard signals, which indicate that a blast is about to be fired and a later all clear signal have been adopted. It is important that everyone working in the area be familiar with these signals and that they be strictly obeyed.
