In the history of structural engineering, steel-frame high-rise buildings have never been brought down due to fires either before or since 9/11, so how can fires have brought down three in one day? How is this possible?

Have these twits never heard of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire?

That building didn't collapse. It was just gutted. It still stands today, and is known as the Brown Building at NYU.
