Steel loses 50% of it's carrying capacity at about 1200 F. Jet fuel burns at 1500 F, and this doesn't account for the other fuel (paper, etc.) that might have gotten the temp over 2000 F, causing about 95% in carrying capacity. These guys are lunatics.

I have met a few of them. They claim to know an awful lot about stuff they have no experience or data with.

Yep. They act as if the metal had to actually melt to achieve failure. Moonbats.
