This link does not explain the pools of molten steel either. Lots of highly qualified scientists build complex models that can prove anything that is built into them, which is why we have a great global warming swindle underway. I don’t claim to know what happened. But those that do ought to be able to explain the evidence that is there. When they do not try to do so, it does not build my confidence in their claims.

Well, just so you can be satisfied, the fedgov should fund experiments to erect several 100+ story buildings and then collapese them so they can come up with an ironclad theory as to how molten steel forms after a large building collapse.

I’ve seen the so called pools of molten steel videos.. there is no evidence there that if there were actually pools of molten steel (versus, as a fireman said in one video, red hot steel (not pools of molten steel)) what caused it. How many gas lines were broken. If there were pools, how do we know this was pools of structural steel versus thin, easily melted steel that wasn’t heat tempered (such as what is used in filing cabinets, desks, and non-structural construction.) They mean nothing, prove nothing, and just make you look completely uninformed to base an argument on it.

I've seen this "pools of molten steel" allegation in truther propaganda before. Where is the evidence of that? (Unequivocal photos, samples of congealed "molten steel," etc.?) I read a truther citation of eyewitnesses to "molten steel," and it turned out to be simply clumsy description by uneducated laymen of the fact that the steel framework was merely warped by heat-softening (as mentioned by other posters here), not converted into liquid. There is ample evidence that burning tank trucks can cause steel bridges to collapse into spaghetti-like configurations, without anything actually "melting."
