Let's, for the sake of a calm discussion, assume there was an explosion on/at/near the wing.
What would have seperated the vertical tail cleanly (no burns or symptoms of explosion) PRIOR?

That goes along with a question I have had all along, to which I have not heard anything from the media or government: Were there any Arabs who were hired as maintenance workers and worked on this plane? Did this person/people, come under the "grandfather" clause that existed (may still exist) and not have to go through security screening because he was hired prior to a certain year (I think it was 1997, not sure). If this is a possibility, then sabotage is also a possibility, either that day, the day before, or a month before.

IMHO, the explosion ocuured first. It threw the plane VIOLENTLY sideways or even caude the plane to turn sideways against the wind. The resultant forces caused the composite tail section to give way.

Without a rudder or vert stabiliser, the engines became free to thrust in any direction as the plane twisted in another, causing both engines to shear from their mounts.

The question is, what is the nature of the explosive which caused the initial "sharp turn to the left."

That didn't happen. Upon hearing of the explosion through "sources" the FBI sped to the crash site, grabbed the crumpled stabilizer, threw it on a flat bed, covered it with a tarp, and whisked it away to an unknown, secure location. Meantime, another team of FBI agents had attached a mockup tail fin to a crane and dropped it into Jamaca Bay while everyone was watching news of the crash on television. They spread rumors of the tail section coming off in flight and then said, "Hey, everybody, overhere!" Once the TV cameras arrived they lifted the tail section out of the water.

It is not hard to unravel these conspiracies once you know how these people think.
