I could give one building falling like that, but two and then the third one is just crazy from a physics standpoint as well as construction.
(Yeah, how about that. Three times in a row, gravity caused things to fall downward and not upward or sideways. Weird.)

Before pharmacy and biology (and later computer science) became my career, I was involved in Mechanical Engineering.

But, then I found this:
Still retail pharmacists are crippled by lawsuits. My main reason for ditching it post-acceptance to a pharm college.
Ahhhh, so now we all understand you. So, at one point, you were thinking about becoming a pharmacist & were actually accepted to a pharm school - that's sufficient for a claim that pharmacy was your career at one point. Gee, when I was 5 years old, I wanted to be a fireman. So, I think from now on, I'll claim here that at one point, my career was a fireman. That causes this to make more sense:

My education is heavily in zoology.
So, when you were 5 years old, you wanted to work at the zoo, huh? Isn't that cu-uuute? What's "heavily in zoology" mean - that one of your required college electives had to be in science, and you couldn't fit the 3 credit hour easy science course into your schedule, so you took a 4 credit hour science course?
I'm not sure which is more amusing - that you believe the conspiracy theories, or that you believe:
Also it would be doubtful the buildings would be totally nuked like they were. You would expect some at the bottom few stories to remain at least in one of the cases.
But, that statement essentially proves you're an idiot in terms of mechanical engineering & physics in general. It's like arguing "yeah, I know the freight train traveling at 60mph hit the car squarely on the passenger side, but I would have expected the people on the driver's side of the car to walk away unharmed." In fact, based on that statement, I have to question if you've even ever taken a basic level intro physics course on mechanics in your life - the one that might mention mass, momentum, and kinetic energy.
Given that you believe "some at the bottom few stories to remain", it's absolutely pointless to argue with you about the 9/11 conspiracy theory. But, I just wanted to come to this thread to point out that your exploits are like a real-life Buckaroo Bonzai. Wait a second though... didn't Buckaroo Bonzai race a car across the desert?
Never mind, you've got the racing scene covered too! (Plus advocating that there's nothing wrong with DUI, as long as no one gets hurt.)

In conclusion, you're right on at least one point. It was stated early in the thread that plenty of engineers and other experts have already debunked all the crap about the 9/11 conspiracy. You pointed out that not all of them have debunked it - some of them believe it. I take it you consider yourself to represent 9/11 conspiracy believers from among the mechanical engineers? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
No, those other "engineers" haven't been debunked; they've just been laughed at.
