well, this is bad news for the professional building demolition industry. the NIST report will put them put out of business for good. for the first time in history, a steel high-rise is brought down by fire.

...which shows that from now, on all you need is a box of matches and a can of gasoline and voila! instant do-it yourself controlled-demolition. just like magic.
