Physicist says heat substance felled WTC
increasingly convinced that thermite and sulfur were the root causes of the 9/11 disaster.
But, said Jones, molten aluminum is silvery. It never turns yellow. The substance observed in the videos "just isn't aluminum," he said. But, he said, thermite can cause steel to melt and become yellowish.
Second, he cited video pictures showing white ash rising from the south tower near the dripping, liquefied metal. When thermite burns, Jones said, it releases aluminum-oxide ash. The presence of both yellow-white molten iron and aluminum oxide ash "are signature characteristics of a thermite reaction," he said.
Another item of evidence, Jones said, is the fact that sulfur traces were found in structural steel recovered from the Trade Towers. Jones quoted the New York Times as saying sulfidization in the recovered steel was "perhaps the deepest mystery uncovered in the (official) investigation." But, he said, sulfidization fits the theory that sulfur was combined with thermite to make the thermite burn even hotter than it ordinarily would.

1. Hmm, Definitely Signs Of Thermite Above The Basement Level
Edited on Tue Apr-11-06 01:46 AM by Christophera
I've been certain of thermite in the basement since the beginning. Recently video showing bright yellow sparking hot spots further up the tower has surfaced.

It could help to direct the fall of a tower constructed as these were to cut perimeter box columns along a floor line with thermite and if it were ignited later, smoke would obscure it some.

3. thanks dave for the encouragement.. I'd like to see a match
type of discussion featuring Prof. Jones. Prof. Griffin, Paul Thompson,Tarpley,Eric H?,and 5 other master
911 hunters face off against the master spin-meisters from FEMA NIST and that "Ludicrous" 911 Commission. Would be some kind of event those discussing to the death the events of Sept.11 2001.

4. Wording
I'd just like to make a quick comment.

The wording of the title of that article seems rather unfortunate. I don't think it really explains the premise of the theory being reported very well. To me, "heat substance" makes the idea sound rather silly. And to follow it with "extremely hot fires caused structures to fail" compounds the problem. It does not really represent what is in the article and, in my opinion, is a little bit confusing.

I just found the choice of wording odd. Wondering if they were somehow trying to appeal to a larger audience. :shrug:
