NDIANAPOLIS — A computer simulation of the 2001 World Trade Center attacks supports a federal agency's findings that the initial impact from the hijacked airplanes stripped away crucial fireproofing material and that the weakened towers collapsed under their own weight.
The two-year Purdue University study, funded in part by the National Science Foundation, was the first to use 3-D animation to provide visual context to the attacks, said Christoph Hoffmann, a professor of computer science and one of the lead researchers on the project.

I predict that this thread will be excellent moonbat bait. :D
>>>Oh Rosie! You Gotta Lotta ‘Splain’ To Do
Her ‘splainin’ will consisit of wailing on how the scientists are in cahoots with the Bushies to hide the truth that it was an inside job that brought the towers down.
Everybody knows Bush flew the planes into the building by remote control while reading to the kindergarden class, then had the buildings blown up with bombs planted in them. Bush also flew the plane that shot the missles in the Pentagon. The actual airplane was abducted by aliens.
Ya think? hehe
If they can’t figure out why the WTO collapsed, they’ll never figure out who assassinated Kennedy.
BWWWWAHAAHHHHAAAAA!

My local moonbats are hung up on the other building that fell (Building 5 or 7?).
If ruse-ee ever had to ‘splain anythin’, her head would ‘splode.

Might even ‘splode twice.

#7.
I don’t think the NIST report on that one is out yet. But when it is, guaranteed your friends will STILL be hung up on #7.
Saddam Hussein signed his strikes against America during the terror campaign he planned in association with bin Laden in 1992-2001.
Every major strikes on the US soil was precisely done a day that reminded a shameful moment for the Iraqi dictator during the Gulf War led by the United States

Brackets holding the floor beams were just welded to the exterior vertical columns rather than having a mechanical load bearing configuration. As the floors above collapsed, the bracket welds just sheared off on each successive level.
I love that! When wannabe engineers go bad. Too funny.
“Her ‘splainin’ will consisit of wailing on how the scientists are in cahoots with the Bushies “
You wouldn’t believe how many young people I work with still believe the conspiracy theory on 9-11! They have ‘splainin’ for everything, including voice-over for the engineers and 9-11 Commission. They believe the “Bush-ies” had their people voice over the Commissions’ and engineers’ findings so the public wouldn’t realize the attack really did come from our government!
Good Golly Miss Molly!
