Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

To those who believe WTC 7 didn't fall due to fire, how did it fall?

    There is no clear chain of custody for the samples used in the paper, none.
    No chain of custody means that no credible hypothesis can be considered.
    The Managing Editor of the Open Chemical Physics Journal resigned after the articles publication as she claimed it was done without her knowledge and approval.
    Plenty there to debunk the thermite hypothesis and thats before one takes into account the extensive issues with Bentham Open as a peer reviewed publisher in fact it is widely perceived to be a vanity publisher!

    This is false Dr Milette a scientist who was involved in the official WTC dust study confirmed the red/greys chips were in the dust.

    He disagreed with their conclusions that's it. He is the only scientist to ever dispute their findings in a public setting. He also promised to release his findings to a peer review journal in 2012. Never happened because he knew his findings would be scrutinized and debated.

    Hundreds of scientists release peer review papers on the Bentham open site. She probably someone who can not handle the truth. Look at this thread for example people beliefs often get in the way.

    Do you have a summary of the theory anywhere?

    Can Cheerful spring post a credible peer reviewed paper supporting the same thesis? i.e Thermite that is not peddled by a discredited and non peer reviewed journal?
    Btw: Here's a good video I finally found after a bit of digging. It was years since I've seen it.

    It outlines how the samples in the paper in question are highly suspect.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qROovaGUEI

    I particularly like the part when Dr Jones wears a glove to handle the sample, but then just passes it to his ungloved hand.

    You have it backwards. There is no credible peer review paper disputing their findings.

    When you release a scientific paper the other side has to debunk it scientifically.

    It is not false, chain of custody was never established for the Harrit samples.
    That Milettes samples matched is a happy coincidence as it debunks the Thermite claim made by Harrit.
    He also confirmed that whilst the samples he tested to replicate the Harrit study were consistent with Harrit et al. that there was no evidence of elemental aluminum in any sample tested and that the samples were categorically not Thermite or Nano Thermite.

    Lol. How many times had you been asked to provide evidence or a link to your claims and then fobbed it off by telling us to google it.

    And again, she did include WTC7. http://www.drjudywood.com/articles/dirt/WTC7.html

    You are just being closed minded about her work.

    Or you are starting to see how silly your own position and arguments are....

    I see nothing on that awful looking website about a space beam blowing up WTC7 try again.

    Lol is she serious?

    Her "theory" has as much credible evidence as yours. I'd argue more, since you don't have any

    That's what she's discussing. I don't know what you were looking at.

    But you're just stalling now. Why do you reject DR Judy Woods' work?

    Where's your peer reviewed study debunking all of her work?

    Why are you dismissing her expertise? She's a doctor of many fields including engineering.
    Why do you think you know better when you can't even do high school physics?

    The names of the people and locations were identified. Nobody disputes the red/grey chips were found in the dust samples.

    Dr Milette conclusions are problematic because he a scientist involved in the cover-up. Skeptics should have asked independent scientists to debunk this paper. Dr Milette was involved in a documented mainstream cover-up of the dangers of the WTC dust to people health after the attacks. It was reported by official news sites.

    Dr Milette claims no elemental aluminium was present even though he did not do the tests Harrit carried out. He did even do a DSC test to see if the chips spiked when heated. Dr Harrit tests clearly showed the Aluminium was not bonded with silicon. Dr Milette claims Aluminium and Silicon were bonded. He never produced his peer review he had promised he would to prove this.

    Besides creating spurious facts you can now label anyone that disagrees as being part of some fictional "cover-up"

    A skeptic is someone who questions things logically and reasonably. Using it as a label is a compliment.

    I like how you are suddenly demanding peer-reviewed everything but have stated that Hulsey's paper will be infallible the moment it is released.. without even knowing what it says

    That's the opposite of skepticism.

    Again you are stalling. It's a bit sad.

    Here you go:
    http://www.drjudywood.com/wp/

    Now, please explain why you are dismissing her.
    She is a doctor. She is an expert. Why would we doubt her?
    If we are to follow your arguments, that makes her unquestionable.

    Her research is there in the open meaning that it's peer review, according to your definition of the word and no one has debunked her research.

    You have not even address any of her points except to dismiss it as silly just because it relies on made up technology that doesn't exist and then you asked the same questions that you yourself say don't need to be answered when they are posed to you...

    So why do you not believe her?

    Remember that cheerful's version of "peer review" means "publish it on the internet and have your friends look it over and say it's fine."

    It's the best kind of peer review apparently.

    I am Skeptical of NIST claims how the building collapsed:confused:.

    He is already given an update on his findings. He opinions are the collapse was not caused by fire.

    He even replicated the actual collapse conditions in a computer simulated model. You going to see this alongside the NIST model and people will notice the differences immediately.

    If he can by science replicate the real conditions of the collapse, that's what happened.

    First, I didn't say that.

    Dr Judy Wood does. She's an expert and a doctor. She provides all of her evidence there on her peer reviewed website. That is the most detailed version of her theory. It's not really our problem if you have trouble understanding it.
    Please read it. You can find all of those things by clicking through the site. However some of the links are down as the government is trying to censor her.

    Or you explain why you are dismissing her in such a closed minded way?
    Why are you asking the same question that you said don't need to be answered when they are posed to you.

    Also, if poor website design is a valid reason to dismiss conspiracy theories...:pac:

    I don't care if she is a Doctor. Expert in what ( space beams blowing up the twin towers?

    You made a claim she said a space beam blew up the WTC7 building. You still have not provided that quote or information.

    She lists her credentials on her website I provided. And she's a lot more qualified than a lot of the "experts" you trot out and demand we accept unquestioningly.
    http://www.drjudywood.com/wp/dr-judy-wood-biography/
    Dr. Judy Wood earned a Ph.D. Degree from Virginia Tech and is a former professor of mechanical engineering. She has research expertise in experimental stress analysis, structural mechanics, deformation analysis, materials characterization and materials engineering science. Her research has involved testing materials, including complex-material systems, in the area of photomechanics, or the use of optical and image-analysis methods to determine physical properties of materials and measure how materials respond to forces placed on them. Her area of expertise involves interferometry in forensic science. She taught graduate and undergraduate engineering classes and has authored or co-authored over 60 peer-reviewed papers and journal publications in her areas of expertise.
    ...

    Dr. Wood received her

    B.S. (Civil Engineering, 1981) (Structural Engineering),
    M.S. (Engineering Mechanics (Applied Physics), 1983), and
    Ph.D. (Materials Engineering Science, 1992) from the Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Virginia.
    Her dissertation involved the development of an experimental method to measure thermal stresses in bimaterial joints. She has taught courses including

    Experimental Stress Analysis,
    Engineering Mechanics,
    Mechanics of Materials (Strength of Materials)
    Strength of Materials Testing

    I doubt you read all of the evidence on her peer reviewed website as she provides quite a lot and you've only had a few minutes.

    And again, I have provided a link to where she discusses WTC7. You can find it by going back or by looking through the website you've been provided.

    Again, why are you dismissing her? You don't seem to know anything about her or her claims and qualifications. Yet you seemed quick to pass her off as a shill.
    Yet you have not provided anything to actually debunk her. You haven't even discussed any of the evidence she provides.

    That's really closed minded of you.

    So if she's not really an expert, and is just crazy, please point to a peer reviewed source that actually debunks her evidence?

    Please point to any evidence that she does not have the qualifications she claims.

    Can we now claim all of your experts are likewise fake?

    And again... if we could just dismiss conspiracy theories because of terrible, awful writing styles...:pac:

    You are again dodging and stalling

    Could it actually be that you can't actually debunk any of her claims?
    Are you so closed minded that you won't even consider her ideas?

    Why not? Why do you not believe her?
