I'm not convinced that you could close off a floor and do unsupervised work on a building of world importance like this. It aint like putting a new bathroom in your apartment, there would have to be plans and consultations with all levels of management. They would have to check anything major too, probably notice all the connecting wires if it was a demo job. > That is when people think the explosives were laid and some > > beams severed to create the demolition collapse.

It wasn't the Muslim world just a bunch of hardcore nutters in Afghanistan. I'm sure they knew what the likely outcome was when they started, but as Bin Laden said "We love death more than you love life" They think being martyred is the best thing that can happen to them.

One of my first thoughts on 11/9 was that they chose the best target, not just the biggest building but one of huge symbolic importance to the west. > > I really don't understand people who can't except "the jury is still > out > > on 9-11" and so quickly want to believe it was Muslim terrorists. >> > > They are afraid to think about it.

I think it's an inability to ac cept the simple truth that inspires the imagination to create these theories. And it don't say much about peoples trust in government, if I was them I'd be almost as worried about that as in terrorism. I am not saying that the government did it like some people > say, but more likely an actual huge bank robbery (apparently there were > reports of a lot of gold in the vaults underground - maybe federal > reserve gold.

Flying planes into buildings has a rather uncertain outcome, anything could have happened they might have fallen over like trees for all anyone could have predicted. I think that the fact it *looked* like a demolition job is *why* that rumour started.
