2. Your picture is of beams cut during the clean-up process with torches.
Please stop failing.

8. Good point...

Thermite or those pesky nano-torch cutters?

You make the call.

9. Something is falling out of 80 that by floor 79 is already turning silvery.
It's molten aluminum or lead. That flow is coming out of an area that housed a Uninterrupted Power Supply room filled with huge lead batteries, and was where a lot of airplane debris ended up. My bet is the lead.

Please stop issuing false dicotomies.

10. do you see that....
where the flow is coming from the building, there is hardly no fire. So it would begin cooling before it exits the building.
You assume that it's Al or Pb but you don't know for sure. :eyes:

And where exactly is the floor in the picture? It seems that the flow is located maybe six to eight feet above the level's floor.

4. It's pretty stupid to think that....
fire personnel would just walk amid evidence of controlled demolition and not ask, "Hey! Were 300+ brother firefighters murdered?". It's far more likely that they are aware that the cuts to the beams were done by torches during the cleanup process, as there are numerous pictures of that taking place, as well as the testimony of those doing the clean-up. The "truth movement" falls flat on its face yet once more.
