the explosives required to cleanly bring down a building are not exactly small, or for another matter are they stable. so following on from the suggestion that after 94 they wired up the WTC incase of a repeat, then 7 years the explosives were sitting there, im pretty sure something would happen, misfiring or somesuch. If there were explosives, they were installed close to the date.
