That's a lot of crazy people!
So to recap, sky scrapers can withstand hurricanes and earthquakes, but not a fire so small no one really even noticed it.
God bless America.

I guarantee you those poll results have to do with the way the questions were worded. The first one makes sense. Of course Bush is hiding things. That's exactly what intelligence is. Their are entire organizations that work without disclosing their actions to the public. Informed people would answer 100% that the administration is hiding things. It would be impossible to conduct investigation if they weren't.
As for the second question I love how no sources are given, while clear sources are given for the first poll. The second one is referred to as "another US poll". What does that mean? They went to the local bus stop and polled some people?
So to recap, how many earthquakes and hurricanes have their been in NY that these skyscrapers have withstood?
I'm pretty sure it was the fires (which result in the smoke pouring out of the building that can clearly be seen) in combination with the massive amounts of cement falling on the building and tearing off a face of it that made it fall over.
