And yes super thermite was found.
fair enough on the brand. I'm wrong on that. But architects for truth. Plenty of phds who all agree on super thermite.

I should think that it is amazing that people still see the picture of the beams being cut by the clean up crews as proof of demolition. But then, I've been around here long enough to know better.

Do you really think it takes 11 years to come up with this report?
Do you really expect this to be accurate?
Where did the samples come from? Look at page 9.
The samples were recovered from locations blocks away from the ground zero.
Where are samples taken directly from the steel beams?
This report is a joke.

The areas selected to sample are what makes this study a joke.
None of the samples contained the iron spheres that were the main focus in the report by Jones.
Melted steel is heavy and would not be carried by the wind like other material in the dust.
The molten metal was all found directly under the towers. Not 3 and 4 blocks away.
Tell me where Jones samples came from then please ?
One sample was collected on an indoor window sill on 9/14/2001, just three days after the disaster while searching for survivors in the rubble was ongoing, and in a building four blocks from ground zero. The other sample was acquired inside a fourth-floor apartment (whose upper windows broke during the WTC collapse) a few days later. We sought for samples acquired very soon after the collapses in order to drastically reduce any chance of contamination by clean-up operations (see Appendix). Furthermore, as we shall see, samples independently collected by other researchers corroborate the high-temperature indicators we observe
4.1. Observations of iron-rich and silicate spherules
Iron-rich spherules were also observed in studies conducted by the RJ Lee company [1] and the US Geological Survey (USGS) [2]. In particular, a USGS report on the WTC dust provides two micrographs of “iron-rich spheres” [3] and a “bulbous” or tear-drop-shaped silicate droplet [4] (see images below)
No explanation for the presence of these iron-rich and silicate spheres (which imply very high temperatures along with droplet formation) is given in the published USGS reports. The RJ Lee report also provides a micrograph and XEDS data for iron-rich spheres observed in the WTC dust; for example, their figure 21 (below, left) shows an “SEM image and EDS of spherical iron particle [1].” We likewise observe high-iron, relatively low oxygen spheres (e.g., below right and Fig. 4), which we find are unlike spheres gathered from cutting structural steel with an oxyacetylene torch.
Moreover, the RJ Lee report provides provocative data regarding the abundance of observed iron-rich spheres. A WTC dust sample acquired at 130 Liberty Street shows a “mean of composition” of “Fe spheres” of 5.87% which is very high compared with “Fe spheres” found in ordinary building dust of only 0.04% [1]. As the report notes, the WTC dust has unusual identifying characteristics – in particular, the WTC dust in this sample has nearly 150 times (5.87/0.04) the amount of iron-rich spheres as ordinary dust
(where Fe spheres can arise from micrometeorites, for example).
130 Liberty Street
The 130 Liberty Street building, originally owned by Deutsche Bank, was severely damaged on September 11, 2001, by falling debris from the twin towers.

So, with the complete lack of physical evidence that there was a CD, you believe it was a CD. Interesting.
