You just can't thank someone like Dr. Jones enough.

Agreed. "Beautiful presentation". But since I am very familiar with Dr. Jones work, I paid most attention to the way Jones conveyed this information to his audience, presenting each subtle tid-bit of detail in such a way as to capture attention and make total, simple sense. He can anticipate the little mental struggles a crowd has, and make it all immediately clear. He can touch upon implication without getting off-subject. What a practiced hand! He taught university physics for 20 years and it shows.

What a smashing fist in such a velvet glove! This guy is a real hero, folks. I just hope he knows how much everyone appreciates the level of talent and skill he brings to 911 Truth. Dare I say we'd be nothing but a tribe of indians with a Medicine Man without Steve Jones.

Rock on, Teach!

Is this the same presentation, but from a different angle?

I was asked:
"1. Is it possible based upon your research to determine if there were two types of nano-thermites used?
For example one the apparent non-explosive thermite that created the flowing metal from the upper floors and the other nano-thermite used to violently separate the steel members via explosions?"

Regarding "the apparent non-explosive thermite that created the flowing metal from the upper floors" of the South Tower, captured on several videos as an orange-flow, this fits our experimental data for the molten eutectic of iron plus sulfur -- from a Thermite plus sulfur mixture. This is commonly called thermate (not necessarily thermate TH-3) -- and is an incendiary form of thermite.

Unlike ordinary thermite or thermate, "nanothermite" is characterized by ultra-fine grains of at least one of the constituents, Fe2O3 or aluminum. In the red/gray chips, the red layer shows Fe2O3 in grains about 100 nanometers across, fitting the requirement for nanothermite. And yes, nanothermite is typically tailored to be an explosive. As I explained at UC-Davis, there appear to be TWO forms of thermitic material on 9/11/2001:
1) thermite plus sulfur, an incendiary, and
2) nanothermite, an explosive.

"2. In order to use a conventional fire based, gravity driven collapse excuse, would it be a necessity to weaken the structure to the point of initiation via non-explosive nano-thermite cutting as in the flowing molten metal observed and then to cloud the violent nano-thermite explosions using the collapse of the building itself?"

This fits the observations, yes.

"Thank you for your response and great presentation."

Thank you.

I should clarify that the initial fumbling came because the first speaker (Janette MacKinlay, she gave a great short talk) used my computer, so I needed to remove her PPT and get mine going and there was a little glitch in making the switch.
John -- if you could take out this first part, or some of it, I think it would be better...

And yes, I strongly support the NYC CAN initiative. The great goal is justice, not just a scientific description of precisely HOW the WTC buildings were brought down. Justice will require a public investigation with subpoena power (IMO) -- and NYC CAN pursues just such a goal.
