Would you say WTC7, the third building that fell on 9/11, was an anomaly? If so, would you rate it as useful info?

I think the way it was used in the truth movement and Spare Change was intended as an anomaly. They posited it as odd that people didn't talk about WTC 7 collapsing. That was not unusual at all. Because by that time of day a lot of people stopping paying attention to the news. I know I shut off the TV to be with friends and family. Bars and restaurants were unusually packed that night in NYC, by the way. Seems everyone wanted to be with people.

And since most folks didn't know much about WTC 7 Spare Change could set the terms of the debate. You couldn't answer all the questions they were asking without looking into it, so the movie could catch you off guard, especially when it distorted the facts.

Once you look into WTC 7 and understand what went on, there's nothing really anomalous about WTC 7.

First off, many other buildings were destroyed that day and there were other structural collapses. "Half of WTC 4 and most of the central part of WTC 6 suffered collapse on all floors." WTC 5 which suffered a massive fire-induced collapse of its upper floors that day. Fires caused columns to buckle within WTC 5. These were partial collapses and not a full progressive collapse. One reason for that might be these were 8 and 9 story buildings and thus much, much smaller than WTC 7. So they didn't have the weight of all the upper floors bearing down which might have turned these partial collapses into full progressive collapses.

Two areas in WTC 5 experienced local collapse under an intact portion of the roof. Although there was debris impact near this area, the symmetrical nature of the collapse strongly suggests that the failures were due to the uncontrolled fires. This is supported by the observation that the columns in this area remained straight and freestanding (see Figure 4-18). This local collapse appeared to have begun at the field connection where beams were connected to shop-fabricated beam stubs and column assemblies as illustrated in Figures 4-19, 4-20, and 4-21.

The structural collapse appeared to be due to a combination of excessive shear loads on bolted connections and unanticipated tensile forces resulting from catenary sagging of the beams. The existence of high shear loads, likely due to collapsing floor loads from above, was evident in many of the column-tree beam stub cantilevers that formed diagonal tension field mechanisms in the cantilever webs and plastic moments at the column, as seen in Figure 4-18. http://911research.wtc7.net/mirrors/guardian2/wtc/WTC_ch4.htm

So you could say that this response is anomaly hunting -my- conspiracy theory in support of your own conspiracy theory.

Everything I feel like sharing is on my site. Check out f4ct.co and click censorthis archive.

Also, the MYLife site info was changed, previously said he was Democrat, worked in a mail room and second job title was lib bomber. We can't trust MyLife for accurate info as anyone with account can change info it appears.

Anomalies are details. Details matter.
