3. Jazz, what is your take on the events of 9-11?

So far i have not seen you do much else besides rejecting purported evidence presented by others.
Are you lihop, mihop or what? What do you make of the OCT?

2. more than the flashes

it's the lined up jets of air which could appear to make it a preplanned event to me.

4. Could it be..

aluminum cladding which came loose while the columns were being pulled in by the sagging trusses? I've see videos of something clearly falling and hitting the sunlight just right at times to reflect toward the video. Deceptive conspiracy sites grasp at these optical straws as the only evidence for explosives. These small flashes would not be anywhere near enough to bring down a building. You can clearly see in most CD's many flashes/squibs on just about every floor before a building is demolished.

Or could it be electrical flashes as one of the largest electrical systems in an office building in the world shorts out? There were more than one electrical substation in the building. There were also transformers and such all over the building stepping down high voltage. Remember that the electricity was on during the whole event.

5. The thermite would be on the central support columns

But you are right....this visual evidence is very weak.

But i'm convinced that the collapase was triggered.

6. Thermite would be on central AND external supports!

These flashes and jets and explosive sounds are external signs of the explosive demolition. Seismic evidence indicates thermal explosives responsible for melting so much of the central columns were below ground level, near where the central supports met the bedrock below Manhattan Island, and actually occured immediately before the series of extermal explosions visible in the videos. The thermo-explosive events below ground could not be seen, but thousands of witnesses in NYC FELT them!

8. Those who discount the flashes are discounting the brave firemen

from that day.
" Assistant Commissioner Stephen Gregory said: “I thought . . . before . . . No. 2 came down, that I saw low-level flashes. . . . I . . . saw a flash flash flash . . . the lower level of the building. You know like when they demolish a building?”" (NYT, Gregory, pp. 14-16

9. Those who discount what the fireman say about the flashes...

...discount the fireman...

"I don't know if that means anything. I mean, I equate it to the building cowing down and pushing things down, it could have been electrical explosions, it could have been whatever."

I know I was with an officer from Ladder 146, a Lieutenant Evangelista, who ultimately called me up a couple of days later just to find out how I was. We both for whatever reason -- again, I don't know how valid this is with everything that was going on at that particular point in time, but for some reason I thought that when I looked in the direction of the Trade Center before it came down, before No. 2 came down, that I saw low-leve] flashes. In my conversation with Lieutenant Evangelista, never mentioning this to him, he questioned me and asked me if I saw low-level flashes in front of the building, and I agreed with him because I thought -- at that time I didn't know what it was. I mean, it could have been as a result of the building collapsing, things exploding, but I saw a flash flash flash and then it looked like the building came down.

Q.: Was that on the lower level of the building or up where the fire was?

A: No, the lower level of the building. You know like when they demolish a building, how when they blow up a building, when it falls down? That's what I thought I saw. And I didn't broach the topic to him, but he asked me. He said I don't know if I'm crazy, but I just wanted to ask you because you were standing right next to me. He said did you see anything by the building? And I said what do you mean by see anything? He said did you see any flashes? I said, yes, well, I thought it was just me. He said no, I saw them, too.

I don't know if that means anything. I mean, I equate it to the building cowing down and pushing things down, it could have been electrical explosions, it could have been whatever.

I find the editing of these guys quotes for political or monetary gain troubling.
