WTC7 came straight down in terms of its E and W walls remaining plumb. Ace Acme Oct 2013 #9

Pointless point William Seger Oct 2013 #10

Oh brother, read it again: The CURTAIN WALL panels are not in the model William Seger Oct 2013 #16

Are you claiming that the perimeter columns fell down with the rest of the structure Ace Acme Oct 2013 #17

Umm, no William Seger Oct 2013 #18

What you expect is not what NIST's models show Ace Acme Oct 2013 #19

Obfuscating? You seem to not understand much of what I say William Seger Oct 2013 #22

It's not my fault I don't understand what you say Ace Acme Oct 2013 #23

I can explain it to you; I can't understand it for you William Seger Oct 2013 #24

What you "see" in the video is your own fantasy about an explanation Ace Acme Nov 2013 #39

You claim "no resemblance" but then just ignore a list of resemblances William Seger Nov 2013 #40
