Eric Beck, a supervisor for the recycling facility that was brought to Fresh Kills to sift the debris, testifies in one of several affidavits filed with the suit on March 23 that he witnessed the Department of Sanitation take away some of the fines to be used to pave roads and fill potholes. Other affidavits assert that significant portions of debris likely containing human body parts or other remains were simply raked, shoveled and bulldozed into the landfill, even after sophisticated screening machinery had been brought to the site. Theodore Feaser, a Department of Sanitation supervisor during the Fresh Kills recovery effort, estimates that approximately 223,000 tons of debris are unaccounted for, and says he is convinced that “hundreds of human body parts and human remains” could be found in the landfill.

Also filed was a 2003 letter in which the city’s chief medical examiner, Dr. Charles S. Hirsch wrote that the tiny debris particles sifted at the landfill did in fact contain human remains, and that he was “virtually certain that at least some human tissue is mixed with the dirt at the … landfill.”

Rudy used the remains to fill pot holes. Disgusting.

It seems clear that in those victims he saw only an opportunity to cast himself as some sort of hero. He used those victims to raise his profile and then he used them to pave the streets.

What a joke. How can you be so infatuated with a man like that?

Your mock anger of using the dust from the WTC is unconvincing. I think those people who are upset about it are being used by those trying to stir up anger in grieving families, just as parents of soldiers lost in Iraq are used for political gains, and sick children are used to argue for socialized medicine.

What do you suggest they do with the thousands of tons of dust? Put it into a casket and bury it?

Remember that on 9/11, they thought they would need lots of bodybags, and would fill up the hospitals with injured victims, but this never happened. They either made it out of the building, or were crushed into dust. Finally, you have yet to mention how Rudy is responsible for this catastrophe.

Rudy used the remains to fill pot holes.

1. Sifted sub-1/4 inch dirt is not "human remains". Has this still not sunk in? Why do you keep trying to pretend that it is?

2. You haven't given a single shred of evidence that "Rudy" did any of this, directly or indirectly. Did Rudy drive the machinery? Did Rudy even know these details of whether the dirt was sifted to the 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 inch? Did Rudy personally give the order regarding where to take and what to do with this dirt? If you're going to feign such anger at Rudy shouldn't you at least establish that Rudy did this supposedly horrible thing?

How can you be so infatuated with a man like that?

You are either a liar or truly dense.

I have NOT said ANYTHING in this thread indicating that

1. Rudy is "my hero"

2. I will be voting for Rudy

3. that I am "infatuated" with Rudy

4. or that I even like Rudy, for that matter.

I have said no such thing here, so either figure that out or stop lying about me.

I am simply responding to a silly article and silly comments containing truly idiotic gripes against the guy.

Refused to answer questions. What a man!

He refused to answer questions "about his foreknowledge of the WTC collapse". That is wise because such questions are part of left-wing ideologues' and lunatics' idiotic conspiracy theories. Are you one of them? Why are you giving credence to left-wing lunatic conspiracy theories?

Do you still wonder why New York's first responders have no respect for Rudy?

What I wonder is why you keep pretending to speak for "New York's first responders". You haven't given a single shred of evidence as to what any single "New York's first responder" thinks about ANYTHING one way or the other. It's almost as if you think "New York's first responders" is a magic phrase requiring everyone else to instantly agree with whatever YOU CLAIM "New York's first responders" believe.
