    Seinfeld is about as funny as a shit sandwich. 10 Seinfelds would not be as funny as 1 Jason Alexander or 0.2 Michael Richards'. I always said that Seinfeld was just an excuse for 3 much funnier comedians to get a break. He was the least humourous member of the cast and as for his stand up, it was ordinary at best and is what we call "smile humour". Not worth a laugh even.

    Nothing wrong with Iceweasel, but heaven forbid users have to learn what a web browser is in general rather than remembering a list of brand names. I'm using iceweasel now. It's shit like this which made me ditch Ubuntu and switch to straight Debian. With Etch being plain awesome, I'm looking forward to Lenny a lot.

    How the fuck can potential energy get converted to inertia? One is a quantity and the other is a property of the object. More inertia = more mass. The rest of your post is rubbush.

    Ooooh the FULL force of GRAVITY...Lord save us from Gravity...we'll all be killed! Gravity is not a force, it is a field that exerts a force, but then after following several engineers thru their degrees, I've come to expect such rubbish from them in general.

    And how much is "a hell of a lot?". Too many people who debate the issues surround the physical reality of the collapse are simply unable to comprehend or unaware of the actual numbers involved. Also, a "pancaked" building looks like a stack of pancakes when it has finished collapsing, hence the term "pancake". The WTC looked like a bomb had been dropped on it.

    So you're saying that a building weighing probably millions of tons could topple over a specific and single pivot point?

    And you're saying you don't know how much the building weighed. Other people do. 200,000 tonnes of steel in each building so both buildings together didn't weigh a million tonnes.

    If the jet fuel is out in the open, where heat can dissipate, that would be true. But this was a whole LOT of fuel in an enclosed space, so as the fuel burnt, the steel could keep getting hotter and hotter.

    Can you explain why the fuel would keep burning hotter and hotter, seemingly releasing ever increasing amounts of energy in complete contravention of physical reality?

    And the thousands of tons that slammed into it at high velocity had nothing to do with it?

    Each plane weighed ~80 tons. Get your facts straight before you start spouting rubbish in an attempt to refute what is plainly obvious.

    Yeah the US military failed 4x in one day yet has successfully managed to destabilize 2 countries that the US ruling elite wanted to be destabilized for their oil/global empire ambitions. So if you wanna believe in the "incompetence" theory be my guest but don't expect any credibility.

    The government has not been able to keep the fact that 9/11 was a false-flag op a secret. What they have been successful at is convincing a sufficient number of the population that a "conspiracy theory" is something that only crackpots hold to while ignoring the fact that the official story is also a conspiracy theory where Osama et al conspired to attack America for its alleged freedoms. The US government was not responsible for the event anyway, it was the people behind the government i.e. people like the federal reserve board, the moneyed interests behind the govt that made it happen.

    I have a physics degree and the official story of the events of that day is not physically possible. It's as simple as that. But trying to convince non-physicists of that idea is nigh on impossible

    Steel has only been available for the last hundred or so year. Blacksmiths worked with iron which you note at the end. Steel is not iron and vice versa.

    I don't know about you, but I'll take stable over lightweight any day. The only word that suffices to describe Firefox's lack of threaded tabs is "shameful". There is no excuse for a modern browser to not have this, especially in light of the fact that their main competitor (IE) is developing it.

    Well why don't you fucking write some code so it does? Either that or STFU.
