That seems odd.

"Although no steel was recovered from WTC 7, a 47-story building that also collapsed on September 11, properties for steel used in its construction were estimated based on literature and contemporaneous documents."
polly I was talking about the towers built in the late 60's and early 70's...not building 7 build in the early 80's

there is a big difference there

Welcome to the law of incredibly large numbers. Something had to survive. That was one of the things that did.

You "stand corrected," but your conclusion remains unchanged.

QED... you do not care what the evidence says one way or the other. You're sticking with your delusion.

It didn't. Both towers survived the plane impacts.

They did not, however, survive the subsequent fires.

I know I'm going to regret asking this question, but what the hell?

What possible reason would somebody have for blowing up these buildings "almost exactly 30 minutes apart?"
