9/11 теорий разрушенных героями Unsung Интернета
Суббота 16-ое ноябрь 2007
Отшито! 9/11 теорий конспирацияа разрушенных героями Unsung Интернета Защитники Др. Cambridge. Кейт Seffen [фотоий] и его бумага, «Прогрессивный сброс давления центра международной торговли: просто анализ«, хлопайте вверх везде. Наилучшим образом, не
As I said, the mass collapsing continues to increase as it collapses. And therefore all the debris that went whooshing down the streets … it was actually still pushing down on the towers at the very same time!
But if the frame bent, it makes perfect sense that the buildings collapsed the way they did. The “bent frame” is not shown in any photographs or videos of the collapse, but that’s irrelevant.
And it simultaneously remained in place to crush the stories below it! Furthermore, the crushed material cascading down “hit the pile beneath at much more than any typical terminal velocity” which makes perfect sense. And of course “the whole thing releases quite enough energy to do the melting of aluminum seen in the wreckage, and the sub-red glow of the iron”!! I especially like how this explanation explains the appearance of molten metal flowing from the towers before they collapsed! The collapse generated the heat that melted the metal that flowed out of the building just before it collapsed. It makes perfect sense if you repeat it often enough. In light of this new explanation, we’re apparently very fortunate the collapsing towers didn’t bore a hole in the Earth all the way to China! If the Chinese thought we had done it on purpose and chose to retaliate, we’d be finished in no time. Fortunately that didn’t happen, and with Steve having cleared up the technical end of things, we’re now in a better position to appreciate the non-technical comments… PatColo (Pat from Colorado?) threw in a link to the same review at the Gold and Silver Forum: But Juristic Person quickly found all the weak spots in that review.
BaaBaaBaa found substantial merit in Juristic Person’s post:
That about covers it, I’d say. It’s precise, detailed, factual … everything you could ask for in the way of scientific criticism. There’s certainly no excuse to manufacture a puzzle piece, and I guess that’s exactly what I did when I pointed out that Dr. Seffen’s model made no sense on a number of levels. But it also important to note that I never talk about how Islamic radicalism got its start, and in particular I never mention anything about Pakistan. All the rest — from the hypothetical analysis of what I would think if Bush “confessed” to the accusation of manufacturing evidence, must certainly apply to me personally, otherwise Juristic Person would never have said any of it! Thus, it was all starting to make sense to me. And then Peter Lemkin started a thread at Education Forum, writing
The two main points of the post to which Peter linked were (1) that the BBC had called Dr. Seffen’s research published when it wasn’t, and (2) that Dr. Seffen and Dr. Ross Corotis, the editor of the Journal of Engineering Mechanics (which had reportedly published the paper), had failed to answer any questions concerning the status or even the existence of the paper. Len Colby gave a fantastic response, hitting all the right notes and finding all the weaknesses in what was, after all, a rather shoddy report:
Amazing indeed. It’s also amazing the sort of hoops people can jump through. The paper has still not been published, but it’s available because I obtained a copy, which I then posted and publicized. This proves that my original research was incorrect. Since the paper is available, I must have been lying when I said it wasn’t. Similarly, the original article published by the BBC was badly worded, as the press release from Cambridge says Dr. Seffen’s findings “are to be published in an upcoming issue”. Presumably the journal doesn’t list papers until they are actually published, and you can easily see that I am not only making a mountain out of a molehill, but lying about it too — especially if you forget the first sentence of the Cambridge press release, which says:
And Dr. Seffen could have cleared up all the confusion by replying to a single email, but he chose not to do that because he really does have better things to do than than correspond with misinformed paranoids. All of which provides a perfect illustration of everything I have done wrong with this story, and with my blogging in general. I admit it: I’ve been a truther. I’ve been a misinformed paranoid. I’ve been concerned with whether the news was true or false. I’ve failed to see that it really doesn’t matter. But it doesn’t. It doesn’t matter whether articles in the media are well-written and tell the truth or so badly worded that they actually invert the truth and say exactly the opposite. Who cares? It’s all ink on newsprint, or pixels on a screen. The medium is the message. You’re not reading me, you’re sitting at your computer. And so on. You’re not watching BBC; you’re watching the television. Change the channel; it doesn’t matter. Still the same medium. Still the same message. In other words, content is irrelevant. Accuracy in content is something only a truther could get excited about. And anyway, I was lying. The paper is available which means it’s been published and that means it’s been peer-reviewed which means we can believe every word of it, even the parts where the author acknowledges fudging his model by saying things such as
Do you see how simple that was? It’s amazing how little research is needed to show that most truther claims don’t stand up to scrutiny. So I’m finished. But that doesn’t mean everybody is finished. James B. of Screw Loose Change started a thread at the James Randi Educational Forum this way:
R Mackey found the paper most satisfactory:
Apollo 20 had the gall to disagree!
But SDC had the perfect comeback for that particular complaint — indeed for all such complaints.
I suppose some of my readers will get on it, as seriously as possible, if and when the paper is published in a journal. In the meantime, I’m going to start paying more attention to pomeroo, who had it all figured out a long time ago:
Posting all this marks a fitting end to a blogging career, I should say. I’m tired of being predictable. I’m tired of spewing mindless venom. I’m tired of being a conspiracy liar. I’m tired of parading my ignorance of science, and my crude anti-Semitism is starting to make me sick, to tell you the truth. I’m tired of railing against an authoritative paper which says things like “the precise variation is unimportant” and thereby explodes my pernicious and baseless fantasies. And rather than spewing more mindless venom, I choose to acknowledge that my evil movement is dead. I will never tell the truth again. Ever, ever, ever. It wasn’t doing me any good anyway. It was only an evil habit brought about by my imaginary membership in an evil movement, and I promise not to do it any more. Now perhaps I may be excused for this demonstration of my intellectual bankruptcy. Speaking of intellectual bankruptcy … I never meant to get into this 9/11 stuff. I never meant to get political at all. I never even meant to start a blog. One day I was just sitting here, drooling all over my keyboard as usual, and trying to figure out how to tie my shoes. And the cat walked across the keyboard, and she did a little dipsy-doodle, and the next thing I knew the computer was saying “Thank you for starting a blog.” I never have anything to blog about so I make stuff up, and I can’t tell whether it’s true or false because the sad fact is: I can’t even read! And I can’t spell too many words, but I have a spell checker. I just type random keystrokes and backspaces until the spell checker is happy; then I move on to the next word. I’ve been doing this for three years now, and even my regular readers haven’t noticed that I don’t actually know anything at all about anything! I don’t know what I’ll do when I quit blogging. After all, I’m not smart enough to get a job, or civil enough to have any friends. I may find I have nothing to do all day but drool on my keyboard and try to figure out how to tie my shoes. Such is life. Well, I’ve kept you long enough. I promise I will never say another word about any of this … or anything else … until next time. ;-) http://winterpatriot.blogspot.com Have Your Say: 9/11 Theory Destroyed By Unsung Internet Heroes Please read our posting guidelines before posting.
