I am just surpsised at how many idiots dont know that hot steel is not as strong as cold steel regardless of whether it is melted or not.

What!?!! You don't think Rosie is qualified as a metallurgist? [big grin]

Hey, you stinker...You just blew the post that I was working on :P
Oh well, I will continue to read the rest.

Not only is Rosie not a metallurgist, she’s not even a moron. What’s just below moron? Idiot?

Rosie thinks (that’s just too sweet a word to use to describe her mental processes, and so’s “mental”) that the ignition temperature of a substance is as hot as it will ever get. Thus, if jet fuel “burns” at 410 degrees F, then obviously it can’t melt steel - or even sugnificantly weaken it. This is one of the most blatantly stupid, ignorant, mindless, moronic conclusions ever reached by a so-called intelligent being.

Jet fuel will burn at 10,000 degrees F even easier than it does at 410, and not only that the process just keeps getting hotter and hotter as the heat is trapped in the local environment. But such notions are to Rosie as pearls before swine. Finally! An appropriate metaphor!
