What's the next step?

I think it's very interesting.

What interests me more, though, than the particular physical causes of the tower collapse, is what we do with the answer to that question?  

This means that the buildings had to be rigged with explosives strategically placed on all floors below the impact floors. The explosives charges would have had to be sequenced to fire as each building was falling. This is indeed a monumental engineering feat. It doesn't seem to be the kind of quality that we've come to expect from government.

Maybe the buildings were built with the explosives already in place.

The people DBA 'government,' with their vast resources, can achieve very impressive results...when they actually have an interest to do so.

What do you mean?

I don't mean to imply that it didn't happen that way, but if the government pulled it off, it would have taken a couple of decades to plan and, at least, another decade to execute.

We're talking about a small truckload of explosives for each floor in each tower. There's also the necessity of placing them without being detected or arousing suspicion. 

It does kind of make you wonder what other buildings may be similarly fitted for use in the next surprise. Could be all of them, huh?

I can't claim to know how it happened, though I am, and have been, thoroughly convinced that the official explanation is not possible.

But I still don't know what the difference is.  Before 9/11, gov't = non-existent/immoral, people still loved it.  After 9/11, gov't shown yet again to be immoral (if not non-existent), people will just wipe it off as "wrong guys in charge".  I guess I'm with Greg -- what's next?  What does this knowledge do?  If tremendous effort is expended to get make this particular truth public knowledge, is the result an incremental step towards a stateless society?

Right now, my feeling is "unlikely at best".
