"Myself" prefers to look at facts and evidence, rather than live in the protective cocoon of unfounded twoofer nonsense, and the "blind and stupid" are those like "yourself" who dismiss the work of at least 230 scientists and engineers, most likely without even looking at any of it. As I said before, the SFRM did not have to be completely removed, but the impact of the planes certainly took off enough of it to make the bar joists supporting the floors and attached to the thin-walled perimeter columns very vulnerable to normal office fire temperatures. If you'd read FEMA's Building Performance Study, Ch 2, or NIST's NCSTAR1, you'd know that the bottom chords of the floor trusses were only 2-1/2" X 2-1/2" X 1/4" structural angles, and the diagonals were only 1.09" diameter steel rods, and all of it heated up and weakened very quickly. And if you've studied the towers' collapses at all, you'd know that sagging joists and bowed perimeter columns aren't NIST hypotheticals, they're well-documented facts, complete with photos and transcripts from NYPD personnel in helicopters. As for the ironworkers and other cleanup personnel, they would not have had to "examine the steel" or "pay special notice" to anything. Evidence of a controlled demolition, whether by shaped charges or incendiaries like thermite, would have been obvious to anyone there, and it would be easy to spot in pictures. There simply wasn't any, which is why "researchers" like Steven Jones show photos of steel cut with acetylene torches and lie about them to those blind and stupid enough to believe them.
