Jeffrey, I call your attention to post #319. Lot's of stuff happened in between and you probably missed it.
I continue to ponder the Top Down cartoon in the light of your explanations.
Question: Tony and Jeffrey: common sense would dictate, to me at any rate, that the weakness in the core if great enough would pull the building down dragging down the floor joists and ultimately the roof. Why isn't this possibility, which seems to me to be the most compelling, put forth by NIST and Orling?
Think of another strange event. A person is standing comfortably on a level surface. Suddenly, his leg just below the knee disappears adding no momentum to his otherwise stable body. Why would he fall? According to NIST and Jeffrey, it would not be because he no longer is supported by his now missing leg. It would be because the load would be transferred via the pelvis to the other lag causing instability leading to collapse.
I say he falls because his leg is missing.
And I say the top portions of WTC 1 and 2 collapsed due to core weakness. What caused the weakness is what is at issue.
But once again, why did NIST and you, Jeffrey, or more correctly Major Tom, chose not to go this route?
Jeffrey, that's how I read your cartoon and understand both your words and those of NIST.
