Oh, relax. It's not like we called you names or anything. It's perfectly understandable why you'd have temporary keyboard dyslexia when trying to type B-25. With the B-52 in the news so much lately, you thought one thing, your fingers thought another.
heh heh heh heh

Were already on Code Brown! (according to some on this thread)
I think with the date of April 19 looming the fear is justified..
To: Bommer
360* X 90* = 32,400 directions that plane could take off on if uncontrolled, beginning at any point along the route after a mechanical malfunction or heart attack.
Now I know the true secret of the JFK assassination: it was a "Coincidence". Someone a mile away was cleaniing his rifle when it went off accidentally, and, darn the bad luck, the bullet hit JFK.
"Accidents happen", right?

Agreed, the architecture of the Milan building is totally different from that of the Tampa building. I'm not sure anything conclusive can be gathered from a simple visual assessment of the damage.

LOL...I didnt call anyone names - I just said it was time to take the Tin Foil Hats off. That is not calling someone names....
It is obvious that is was an accident - but whatever - again there are a lot of people in here that make something out of everything that happens - conspiracy theories will start popping up in here later tonight - sorry but it is all very predicatable. Happens almost daily in here.
When someone comes in and starts to downplay the chaos then people get upset

Is there an airport near the Skyscrpaer? (re:landing gear)An American interviewed in Milan on Fox said the airport was about 10 minutes away. Also, the pilot was 75.

Too early to call it either way although a deliberate hit has circumstantial evidence. Agreed - but I tell you hitting a building straight and level with one engine out sure smells like a deliberate act to me.

Take the tin hats off and move onto the next story. This was an accident.Well, I guess that settles it then. No need for further discussion, you've set us all straight as to the undisputable cause of this crash. How you know for certain is beyond me, but, oh well, I'll turn off the lights and lock the door on my way out of the thread.
To: Joe Hadenuf
looks like he ACCELERATED before impact

Yup, and Patriot's Day..

I am afraid is part of our microwave culture where we have to have all of the facts and have them right now. Worse, there is a subset which firmly believes "microwaved" facts are far more palatable than those obtained in a time-consuming process. They'd rather cling to the rumors generated minutes after an event than to those facts determined through careful expert thought & research. They'd rather have a Whopper than a slow-roasted steak.

There is one law of probability: small enough probabilities don't happen in real lifeActually I have to disagree with you there. Coincidences DO happen, even the most improbable ones.
To: Lucas1
But I am sure a bunch of the tin hat folks in here will have it as a terrorist attack no matter what - like chickens running around with their heads cut off
You got that right.
There are still even a bunch of dopes on his forum who think TWA Flight 800 was brought down by a missile as opposed to the center fuel tank exploding (as was demostrated by that great gov-financed cartoon).
