Asbestos was so effective it was used in the World Trade towers. But not to the top. I’ve heard it was prohibited some 20 or floors below the top. Some think the substitute envirowackos forced, contributed to the collapse of the towers since the planes hit the non-asbestos floors. Steel was more exposed to the fire due to asbestos not used up there.

Yep, heard the same. Should have let them finish the job. We don’t for sure of the towers would have survived, but they would have at least have had a chance.

Those “some” are idiots if they buy the theory that planes took down any of those buildings.

True. The north tower had it almost all the way up but only halfway for the south tower . Saw it on a show that talked to an architect.

Supposedly the terrorist studied the blueprints after the underground bombing failed in the 90s. They knew where to aim the planes.

But that was just his opinion if I remember correctly.
