You might recognize the name, Robin Hordon, I worked
with him at the Boston Air Traffic Control Center, a good
controller, but a bit of a trouble maker. That was back in
the 70s, before we both, along with about 12,000 fellow
controllers, were fired [for life] in the 1981 PATCO struke.
Now he's bought into all of the 'conspiracies', and is very
active both on line and in public. Whether through intent
or incompetence, I think the Bush administration 'allowed'
911 to happen, and Cheney, Bushes 'puppet-master', led
him into declaring war on Saddam in Iraq. Of course, we
cannot be certain of anything.

We were all in a 'brotherhood', similar to cops and firemen.
I loved that career, 'the proud professionals'. :) pip

As an observer far removed from the action, I fully swallowed the terrorist line, except for one hitch.
I have the habit of thinking and questioning things. Those were controlled demolitions. B 7 far removed from the
action was brought down in the bargain, and conveniently ignored. No memorials for B7. 

Recently a tower in London caught fire ... still standing.  In a professionally produced doc a series of skyscrapers
that caught fire were shown, none fell. And just what caused B7 to collapse in the same manner as the twins?

Better people than I have proven this fact, there is nothing I can contribute, except that I now know for sure
the real terrorists are in power still laughing their heads off. We are so helpless in these matters.

By the way, what's replaced B7? Do you know?

After a quick look on google, there are dozens of 'expert'
opinions portrayed as facts, CJ. There was even one very
professional video opposing those explaining the building
engineering and effects of the weight above the fire zone -
this was from a few months immediately after the event.
Now, it's lost among all the garbage.

There may be one true explanation among the self-serving
chaff, but who's to know? However, the one major flaw I
see in all the conspiracy theories is the inability of large
groups of people to keep basically anything a secret for long
periods of time. There would be, I think. a niggling need to
blab about something this momentous. Plus, how do they
reliably eliminate the remaining forensic evidence?

I put at least part of the blame on Condoleezza Rice, Sec of 
State, for ignoring what came across her desk, especially
the [documented in a congressional investigation] CIA
report that Bin Laden has said there was a coming attack
involving planes against us. She did nothing, admitted that
fact under oath! Meanwhile the terrorists were here taking
flying lessons!

Condoleezza took the facts
and sat on them for forty weeks.
When she saw what she had done
she blamed it all on 42, alone.

[42 being Pres Clinton]
Well, he *was* a naughty man.

I can't say you're wrong, CJ, but calling theories "proven facts"
is too big a reach for me.

Though I've lived within a day's drive of NYC for most of my life,
I've never visited there. Replacement for 7? Don't know. :) pip
