I made my arguments. That you can`t refute them is your problem.
They were specific, and showed the fallacy of your position.

Not by you. No fires does not mean no heat. No fires does not mean
the steel has stopped being weakened. They would understand this, even
if they didn`t dumb it down to within your reach.

There were fires. Fires produce heat. Fires can produce heat high
enough to melt metals that have a low enough melting point to be
melted by them. Got that?

They also use hot coals. Look up sword making.

They didn`t say all the debris burned out in 20 minutes, did they?

Things like this need testing to determine, not "figuring".
"Figuring" is never going to come to a definitive answer. Its just
another blank, a dead end that can never take you anywhere. That you
stop and stare at it shows more about you than the event.

I`m smart enough to be skeptical about this.

You are looking at it from the outside.

For one thing it is talking about a specific area of one building.

NIST determined that the Twin Towers fell as a result of structural
failure due to the steel being weakened from the heat of the fires and
the initial damage inflicted by the planes. Therefore that snippit has
to have been carefully chosen for it`s ability to distort NIST`s true
meaning.

I don`t have to going running to the NIST report to untangle Truther
distortion. It`s enough to know it for what it is.
