I'm not a demolition expert - but that's how it looked to me.If a building is uniformly weakened, that is how it is going to collapse. Like because it had fires raging throughout it all day.
Well sure - it just seems to me odd that it would be uniformly weakened by an unplanned fire - rather than weakened more on one side than another.

Liquids like diesel fuel tend to distribute themselves relatively evenly when let loose.
And if the diesel was in the center of the building, it wouldn't even need to move far.

No, like I said previously, Kennedy WAS Lincoln. And Kennedy-Lincoln was killed by Karl Rove because Bush needed a red state / blue state divide to win in 2000.

Yes, and the government had to kill her so she wouldn't talk about Kennedy traveling back in time on Spaceship One.

I know I heard somewhere that Kennedy went to Africa to form a band with Bruce Lee and Jim Morrison.

I am, to a small degree.
Gravity acts straight down. Unless the weakened mass tips past the centre of gravity, due to the structural nature of buildings, the collapse will cascade as straight down as possible, with upper collapsed floors settling on lower ones like vertical dominos, crushing the supports.
Tipping over a building would be about attacking the foundation in some asymetric manner.

just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,

Re: Bill Maher Vs. 9/11 Truth Trolls
This is an awesome site with a great deal of interesting and factual information. Unless you have a tinfoil hat... and then its just a big schill for the government, and evil, because it says there was no conspiracy.

I think WTC 7 was intentionally brought down.
I don't think it had a fuel source for the kind of fire to take it down, like the bigger buildings had (jet fuel) - and it went down too well IMHO.
I think there was something in that building that they did not want the general public to know about, and I think demolition charges were in the building in case they were ever needed - kind of like how some spies carry a suicide pill.
But I only tentatively think that - I haven't fully investigated it myself - and I'm certainly very open to the idea that it was not intentionally brought down by us.
...and yet you still support all the decisions made in the wake of 9/11. Wow.

Ribs, don't be so modest.
For the record, Ribtorus, I suspect, knows more about explosives and demolition than anyone else in MiniThink, by a wide margin.

And what decisions are you talking about? There were lots of decisions made in the wake of 9/11.

The information in WTC 7 that they were so desperate to hide detailed the real reason we invaded Iraq!

If it makes you happy, you are welcome to believe your conspiracy theory.
Rib is a military engineer, which means he has more than a passing chance of having some training in demolitions.
