Reply #69: "I just don't think saving all the steel was feasible " [View All]

Right. That's why I tossed JFK's brain in the burn bag. We can't save
all the brains in the world, and we'd soon be up to our earlobes in brains!

I said "flagging the pieces of interest." I would guess there would be
relatively few. Those from the impact floors, those showing fire
damage, those showing unusual damage. And those necessary to resolve
ID problems from damaged numbers and broken pieces.

I mean, what was the huge hurry to clean up Fresh Kills?

There were places near the water where steel could have been stored.
Liberty Park, for instance, Great Kills, maybe Rikers Island, Caven Point,
the industrial wasteland of Newark Bay, Floyd Bennet Field perhaps.
