Ok "Truthers" I was unaware of this quote. I believe this is where you got the information from. But, I believe, that as usual, you have been doing a little mining.

Release date: September 23, 2007

Regarding WTC 7: The long-awaited US Government NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) report on the collapse of WTC 7 is due to be published at the end of this year (although it has been delayed already a few times [ adding fuel to the conspiracy theorists fires!]). That report should explain the cause and mechanics of the collapse in great detail. Early on the afternoon of September 11th 2001, following the collapse of WTC 1 & 2, I feared a collapse of WTC 7 (as did many on my staff).

The reasons are as follows:

1 - Although prior to that day high-rise structures had never collapsed, The collapse of WTC 1 & 2 showed that certain high-rise structures subjected to damage from impact and from fire will collapse.
2. The collapse of WTC 1 damaged portions of the lower floors of WTC 7.
3. WTC 7, we knew, was built on a small number of large columns providing an open Atrium on the lower levels.
4. numerous fires on many floors of WTC 7 burned without sufficient water supply to attack them.

For these reasons I made the decision (without consulting the owner, the mayor or anyone else - as ranking fire officer, that decision was my responsibility) to clear a collapse zone surrounding the building and to stop all activity within that zone. Approximately three hours after that order was given, WTC 7 collapsed.

Conspiracy theories abound and I believe firmly that all of them are without merit.

Regards, Dan Nigro
Chief of Department FDNY (retired)


Is it possible that whomever Silverstein talked to, was either unaware of the fact that the collapse zone had already been established?? Is that a possibility, considering how much confusion, lack of reliable communication, etc were happening that day?? If it is not remotely possible, than logical thinking is not your strong point.

Bonez,

While I understand that there are many quotes from many people who say explosion, but lets think about this.

10,000 different Law Enforcement officials helped sort through the debris. Why, did not one of them find any explosive remnants??

Also, having been in a family surrounded by firefighters, I have heard them say things like, " I was at a car fire, and the tires exploded." Or, "It sounded like an explosion when...." Does it mean that there were explosives?? No. It doesn't.

Either you skimmed through my post and didn't really digest it, or you are just trolling. They didn't just say "explosion". They said:

"It seemed like it was going all the way around like a belt, all these explosions..."

"there was like an internal detonation explosives because it went in succession, boom, boom, boom, boom"

This is the best description:

"Somewhere around the middle of the (north tower), there was this orange and red flash
coming out. Initially it was just one flash. Then this flash just kept popping all the way around
the building and that building had started to explode. The popping sound, and with each popping
sound it was initially an orange and then red flash came out of the building and then it would
just go all around the building on both sides as far as I could see. These popping sounds and the
explosions were getting bigger, going both up and down and then all around the building."

Flashes going up and down and all around the building. Exactly like is seen in many controlled demolitions. These people saw the detonations and saw the flashes from the detonations.

As I've already stated, their testimony is corroborated with the explosions heard in "9/11 Eyewitness", which you still haven't seen. You're wasting your time and our time. You're ignoring the evidence and just peddling bullshit that the witnesses and videos already debunk.

If you don't want to believe it, then get the hell lost. You will not change our minds. Why waste anymore of your time?

Ultima,

I would love to know where you got the information that a fire commander has the authority to demolish a building in an emergency. Please provide a link to that.

Now, does a chief, or commander have to aauthority to pull firefighters out of an unstable building to protect firefighters' lives?? Yes.

BTW, they don't drive around with C-4, or thermite, or anything else like explosives in their trucks. They also don't caarry around huge caables and heavy machinery to pull them down either.

Please, tell me you don't actually believe that, do you??

Fact: Fire Rescue teams have the equipment and knowledge to cut beams. Also demo teams were on site later in the day.

Since building 7 was already unstable it would not have taken much to bring it down, they did not need thermite or much explosives to bring down the building.

Speaking of logical thinking, your trying to say that the fire commander would not have known from his fire chiefs that the firemen were out of the building?

Ultima, Here is the thing. When you have thousands of firefighters on a scene like what 9/11 was, there was lots of confusion. Don't believe me, go google it. Now, it is very possible that he did not find out untill after the conversation with Silverstein. Especially when the radios were somewhat outdated. Certain channels were not able to be picked up on certain radios. This is one of the things that the 9/11 Commission talked about.

Now, I am not sure how many firetrucks you have seen with this logo on them. I certainly haven't seen any, and like I said, I come from a family of firefighters.

Bonez,

I read your post from top to bottom. Now, if this "cd" occured, why didn't the THOUSANDS of NY'ers and MILLIONS of other people who watched those collapses report it?? Sure, some people might have seen this. I will agree 100%. But, to say that there were explosives because someone heard many explosions, is just nonsense.

There were many high voltage transformers, motors, etc in that building. Would it not be possible that when those failed and or caaught fire, would they not make an explosive noise?? They will.

I guess you have not read or do not know the statement made by Chief Hayden.

http://www.firehouse.com/terrorist/911/magazine/gz/hayden.html
Firehouse: Chief Nigro said they made a collapse zone and wanted everybody away from number 7? did you have to get all of those people out?
Hayden: Yeah, we had to pull everybody back. It was very difficult. We had to be very forceful in getting the guys out. They didn?t want to come out. There were guys going into areas that I wasn?t even really comfortable with, because of the possibility of secondary collapses. We didn?t know how stable any of this area was. We pulled everybody back probably by 3 or 3:30 in the afternoon.

You would have to not believe anything that witnesses state or obfuscate their meaning to not understand the implications of Controlled Demoliton. There are multiple witnesses too that corroberate each others accounts. There were 2 Officials that saw these rings of detonations and looked at each other and asked if they saw the same thing. An explosion can sound like anything loud and not necessarily is a detonation but it is alot like the sound of your argument hitting the floor down for the count. Oh and don't get back up unless you plan on helping truthers now instead of ridiculing them.

Now you will say this next quote was a Hollywood set because she said it was like a movie, or good thing smokey the bear was there and telling her to keep clear of the fire. This quote also plays into what is being revealed from Kurt Sonnenfeld that will expose what happened at building 6...Kurt Sonnenfeld Interview
Flashing Popping Detonation Quotes by an EMT: ~This EMT also stated that her Fireprotectant Turncoat Caught on Fire while she was running...~

Quote:
 
KT: You mentioned you were running west on Vesey Street, what happened after that?

PO: I just kept running. I was aware there were other people running as well. After passing the cars on fire, I was trying to find someplace safe. I tried to run into the lobby of 6 World Trade, but there were federal police -- maybe 4 to 6 of them -- standing in the open doorways. As I tried to run in, they wouldn't let me, waving me out, telling me "you can't come in here, keep running." As I turned to start running west again, I saw a series of flashes around the ceiling of the lobby all going off one-by-one like the X-mass lights that "chase" in pattern. I think I started running faster at that point.

KT: Did you hear any "popping" sounds when each of these flashes in the WTC 6 lobby were going off?

PO: Yes, that part was like a movie. The pops were at the same time as the flashes.

KT: Can you estimate either how many flashes you saw or how many of these "pops" you heard inside this lobby?

PO: At least 6 before I was turned away.

KT: Could you still hear any of these explosions when you turned to run back out, or was the noise outside too loud?

PO: I don't recall hearing any more when I resumed running. It was very chaotic.

KT: Now to be clear, were you inside the Lobby of the WTC 6, or were you outside the building when you witnessed these what appeared to be explosions?

PO: I was in the doorway, but not inside the lobby. I remember being able to breathe the somewhat cleaner air coming from inside the building. They stopped me as I was trying to get past the threshold.

KT: Were the explosions going off as you were entering the lobby area, or did they seem to start going off after the police tried to turn you away?

PO: It all happened at the same time. As I got to the doorway, I was told not to come in. As the officer was telling me I couldn't get in the building the flashes starting going off.

KT: Where the police just right at the lobby door, or were some also way inside the building?

PO: There were probably 4-5 officers in the doorway. I could see a few others back in the lobby area.

KT: You said you saw "federal police." What exactly do you mean and did you find it strange they were in there and that they wouldn't let you in?

PO: Well, they were in light brown uniforms and "Smokey the bear" hats. I assumed they were federal police because NYC police don't look like that and I knew there was a lot of federal offices in the WTC as well as the surrounding area, so it wasn't strange to me to see them there, but I did find it very odd that they wouldn't let me in to get cover. But like I say, in that profession, someone tells you to go an opposite way you are going, you don't ask, you just go. I remember hoping they got out as I was watching whatever the small explosions were, because they stayed in the building. They weren't locking it up after evacuating or anything like that.

Why do you think the firemen and citizens survived in the stairwell in tower 1? Did they not detonate that part? Were they trying to do a complete demolition or a partial demolition? Why have none of these people said they heard or saw bombs going off. They were in the tower as it was collapsing.


There is no way to make Silverstein's phone call into an order to demolish building 7. I think one of you is suggesting that they set it up for CD that moring after tower 1 fell? What? Think about what you are saying. If it was goning to be CD, it would already have been set up to demolish. There is no reason to call Larry to get the OK to demolish. Did they call to get his OK to demolish the other towers?

Question back for you - what force destroyed the undamaged floors of the 2 towers? You know those 80 (WTC2) and 95 (WTC1) floors which were not hit by a plane and were not on fire.

tuatara,

Do you think that maybe the 100,000 tons of debris falling on it might have had something to do with it??

Obviously you have no idea the difference between a static load, and a live load. Or Load capabilities, or really anything to do with buildings and how they react to different forces.

There's more than a couple people who saw the flashes and heard the resulting pops/explosions from those flashes. With beantownfan247's logic, I guess the flashes and resulting pops/explosions in the following video are also just transformers and engines blowing, even though we know damn well they're explosives:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6979955002470780153

All beantownfan247 and others like him are trying to do, is explain away the evidence so that they don't have to believe in the conspiracy. Most like beantownfan247 have a disorder:

Quote:
 
denial disorder -
the refusal to acknowledge the existence or severity of unpleasant external realities or internal thoughts and feelings.


There's really nothing we can do about their disorder. Only they can cure it themselves. They have to want to cure it. Otherwise, they will continue to make things up out of thin air like beantownfan247 was just doing above to explain away the evidence and help them sleep at night.

The difference being of course that I am not designed to support the weight of a 2 ton car but the tower was designed to support the weight of the tower.

Now I'll let you have thousands and thousands of tons smashing into every floor in turn, the weight increasing with each floor - but then there really couldn't be survivors in that stairwell could there?

The floors were not built to have the top 30 come down on them at one time. When the first intact floor is hit by the mass coming down, it has no chance. The floor after that has no chance. All the while more falling mass is being added to the original 30flrs. This isn't hard to figure.


The collapse was completely uncontrolled and we know things like the stairwell portion surviving is possible. It is just the randomness of the collapse. Sometimes building collapse in earthquakes and a person in a one room may survive whereas the person in the next room may not. It just depends on how it comes down. A tornado can demolish one house and leave another standing right next door. This is more evidence that this was a natural collapse.

That's a laughable response isn't it. A huge mass accumulating and yet somehow this stairwell survives? If the collapse was so uncontrolled, how come almost all of the towers were destroyed top to bottom - even though the top stories of WTC2 were obviously not falling straight down. The evidence of a controlled collapse is there for you to see - the evidence of a small percentage of the towers actually ending up in the footprint of the towers is there for you to see - the survival of the people in the stairwell is evidence that this huge mass did not come down destroying floor by floor. Case closed Kenyon, try another theory.

It is proof of the randomness of it. We see these things everyday. They are called amazing sigularities. There are millions of examples. It just happens the way it happens and if you are in the right place at the right time, you will survive. There was also two port authority officers who were in the concourse between the towers when tower 2 came down. They survived both collapses and are here to talk about it today. Were they in the right place at the right time? All of their co-workers who were with them died. By the way, they never heard or reported the orchestrated sound of CD explosions either.


You seem to think each floor in the towers could hold any amount of weight. This weight was in motion which makes it much much worse. What do you think it would take to bring a floor down?

The floors were not built to have the top 30 come down on them at one time. When the first intact floor is hit by the mass coming down, it has no chance. The floor after that has no chance. All the while more falling mass is being added to the original 30flrs. This isn't hard to figure.


The collapse was completely uncontrolled and we know things like the stairwell portion surviving is possible. It is just the randomness of the collapse. Sometimes building collapse in earthquakes and a person in a one room may survive whereas the person in the next room may not. It just depends on how it comes down. A tornado can demolish one house and leave another standing right next door. This is more evidence that this was a natural collapse.
That's a laughable response isn't it. A huge mass accumulating and yet somehow this stairwell survives? If the collapse was so uncontrolled, how come almost all of the towers were destroyed top to bottom - even though the top stories of WTC2 were obviously not falling straight down. The evidence of a controlled collapse is there for you to see - the evidence of a small percentage of the towers actually ending up in the footprint of the towers is there for you to see - the survival of the people in the stairwell is evidence that this huge mass did not come down destroying floor by floor. Case closed Kenyon, try another theory.

It is proof of the randomness of it. We see these things everyday. They are called amazing sigularities. There are millions of examples. It just happens the way it happens and if you are in the right place at the right time, you will survive. There was also two port authority officers who were in the concourse between the towers when tower 2 came down. They survived both collapses and are here to talk about it today. Were they in the right place at the right time? All of their co-workers who were with them died. By the way, they never heard or reported the orchestrated sound of CD explosions either.


You seem to think each floor in the towers could hold any amount of weight. This weight was in motion which makes it much much worse. What do you think it would take to bring a floor down?
No, you miss the point - there is no randomness about your theory - tons and tons of debris falling straight down destroying every floor - you can't have that and have survivors, it is ludicrous. What sort of load do you need to turn a massive tower into dust and yet somehow avoid a stairwell near the bottom - where did your mass go? Your theory is false, try another one.

Yep, Randomly on 911 three steel framed structures collapsed. :roll:

No they didn't collapse randomly, they were damaged severly and set on fire.

tuatara,

Do you think that maybe the 100,000 tons of debris falling on it might have had something to do with it??

This is how things happen in the real world. When a building collapses, there are voids and such. This should not surprise you. I can't explain how it happened, it is just the way it fell. I can't explain how a pregnant woman can fall thousands of feet, when her chute got tangled, landed face down in a parking lot, and still gave birth to a healthy baby. They are both doing fine. I can't explain how a window washer can fall 46 stories and survive. It happened. I could go on and on.
