I'm lost on terminology; i.e. free fall [View all]

OK, it was a mistake to come here. I saw the forum title "Offbeat" and thought it referred to more humorous postings ala The Lounge.

Anyhoo --

I keep reading that people have been compelled to admit WTC 7 was in "free fall" and free fall is taken to prove "controlled demolition."

Now, unless I've missed something, "free" means "unhindered" or "unaided" or "unattached." When I think of free fall I think of parachutists plummeting unpropelled through the ethers as fast as gravity will have them. If I have a stack of wooden building blocks and tip them over they too fall, freely. In fact, everything would fall freely according to the claims of gravity unless some other force causes the object to accelerate.

But this is the opposite of what the CTers are claiming. Wouldn't a 9/11 CT be contingent upon claiming the towers were collapsed because they demonstrated a speed for which natural phenomenon could NOT account?

BTW -- don't post links to youtube videos. They won't be watched.
