so your refusing to even acknowledge my points, a sign of a lost cause
i read your document.... no where in there does it say
"when commercial airliners are hijacked and U.S. citizens lives are in danger, wait 1 hour before scrambling jets"
It says to continue to try and make contact on old, current, and new channels until they land, at which time they will be given a citation, presuming there is no malfunction of the redundant systems.
I will happily address any question you want to ask... individually.
Pick a question, a single question... and THIS TIME I will address it, in full, even if I have before, to demonstrate my willingness to not hide from any question.
*edit... just saw you were being polite... you can kind of ignore this part now.
ND... I am about sick of the framing you keep applying to me.
I do not hide from arguments.
I admit when I am wrong.
I have demonstrated several problems in your theories and beliefs, which you have since dropped.
This thread died (except for grow) because you quit... and still will not answer a single question on which EVERY PART of your theory rests.
ND that is a great point... and I am really glad you made it... I have been trying to for a long time. Temperature is different than specific energy. The volume of energy/temp/time determines the structural failure of a given substance/thickness.
A butane lighter flame is about 1400C at the hottest part, and no matter of time will ever make it melt any part of a steel beam. Please keep that in mind for the future.
So are you taking this opportunity to ignore the three simple questions I asked?
Are you ready, yet, to admit that "normal fire" will cause structural failure of raw steel?
If not, can you please explain the bridge collapse in 20 min?
