Fortunately, we have something called experts in this world, who help explain why something reacts or occurs in a manner you "don't expect it to". So, it's great if you want to drum up all of the formulas and scientific laws explaining why steel should only melt at certain temperatures, how the towers should only fall at a certain speed... But please don't use the "it doesn't do what my limited understanding expects it to" argument... It really is amazing how often people will look at the evnts of 9/11 and say "well I don't think a plane crash can cause a 110 story building to collapse", or "That looks like a controlled demolition, so it must be so"... Let's leave the explanation to experts who will very precisely prove, with science, whether something is possible.

And believe me, if conspiracy theorists would understand this concept, we would have a lot fewer arguments out there with regards to 9/11- CP users and non-users alike.

Best post in this thread.

Now if we could only apply the same logic to religion with its concocting fairy tales to explain the un-explainable, this world would start getting a lot better.
