(6,302 posts)...don't give me that crap. Sure, a 757 crashing directly into one floor will do the damage you profess, but, given the floors below it will not have that much immedeate damage. Anyone's opinion, not having any real experience in construction, that the floors below the impact fail just as the floors that were actually impacted may have alll the knowledge in the world that academics may provide, but we, who know the business, understand that what happened could not have happened without help. Thanks.

On further edit, know this eggheads, when you have floors that have not been damaged, and pulverized shit falls on it, the floors will, for the most part, stand, and offer resistance.
The twin towers should have had at least a third of their structure still standing. I didn't really want to get into this, but the ignorance was just too much for me to ignore. Thanks, and I hope you're proud of yourself.

On further, further edit, sometimes it's not just the higher educated, which I admire, as I have a son and daughter-in-law with masters degrees, but occasionally it falls into the hands of the blue collar. Thanks again.
