Oh I don't know... maybe because an airplane didn't slice through it and dump thousands of gallons of burning jet fuel on it.

Note: This is a flyby, nothing more. I just happened to catch your post so I figured I'd drop by and plop something on the board. Hopefully, arizona will come back later on to finish up if she feels the need to.

Page 52-
Most of the jet fuel in the fire zones was consumed in the first few minutes after impact, although there may have been unburned pockets of jet fuel that led to flare-ups late in the morning.

Jet fuel sprayed onto the surfaces of the typical workstations burned away within a few minutes. The jet fuel accelerated the burning of the workstation, but did not affect the overall heat released.

Page 104- While much of the public attention has been focused on the jet fuel, most of this was combusted in only a few minutes.

Page 239- The presence of high volatility materials, such as jet fuel, were instrumental during the initiation phase, but mostly burned away rapidly and (except for a few flare-ups observed in WTC 2) played little or no role later.

Didn't you follow the conversation? Alex and I already discussed this. I see that woofer gave you an explanation of how the jet fuel burned up rather quickly but I was specifically speaking about building 7 where NO plane and NO jet fuel hit it, yet it collapsed and become pulverized just like the other two towers but a very hot fire that burned for several hours at the trade center in 1975 did no such thing. What's YOUR explanation for how that happened?
