Your own government has now decided to address the concerns of the "9/11 wack jobs", and the "answers" are ridiculous. The only three high rise steel structures ever to collapse after experiencing major fires, all collapse, just a few hours apart, on the same day, and the government agency with the principle mission of investigating such fires and the damage that they do.....decides <i>"not to hire new staff to support the investigation"</i>, resulting in the postponement of the investigative report of the most troubling building collapse, for at least two years.....and the folks who question the government response to these unprecedented events are..
...the "wack jobs"?

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Federal Building and Fire Safety Investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
10. Why were people seen in the gaps left by the plane impacts if the heat from the fires behind them was so excessive?
NIST believes that the persons seen were away from any strong heat source and most likely in an area that at the time was a point where the air for combustion was being drawn into the building to support the fires. Note that people were observed only in the openings in WTC 1.
According to the International Standard ISO/TS 13571, <h3>people will be in severe pain within seconds if they are near the radiant heat level generated by a large fire. Thus, it is not surprising that none of the photographs show a person standing in those gaps where there also was a sizable fire......</h3>
14. Why is the NIST investigation of the collapse of WTC 7 (the 47-story office building that collapsed on Sept. 11, 2001, hours after the towers) taking so long to complete? Is a controlled demolition hypothesis being considered to explain the collapse?
<h3>When NIST initiated the WTC investigation, it made a decision not to hire new staff to support the investigation.</h3> After the June 2004 progress report on the WTC investigation was issued, the NIST investigation team stopped working on WTC 7 and was assigned full-time through the fall of 2005 to complete the investigation of the WTC towers. With the release and dissemination of the report on the WTC towers in October 2005, the investigation of the WTC 7 collapse resumed. Considerable progress has been made since that time, including the review of nearly 80 boxes of new documents related to WTC 7, the development of detailed technical approaches for modeling and analyzing various collapse hypotheses, and the selection of a contractor to assist NIST staff in carrying out the analyses. <h3>It is anticipated that a draft report will be released by early 2007.....</h3>

Contrast the bullshit delays and excuses coming from NIST with the NTSB TWA-800 investigation, which included the recovery of most of the wreckage of a 747 Jumbo airliner from the ocean floor, reassembly of that wreckage into a recognizable airliner fuselage, and analysis and determination of the mid-air explosion that brought the aircraft down, all in 17 months.....

NTSB releases TWA Flight 800 crash report
TWA/NTSB graphic
December 8, 1997
(CNN) -- The National Transportation Safety Board on Sunday released documents detailing its extensive, 17-month investigation into the crash of TWA Flight 800. The documents will serve as evidence for the week-long NTSB public hearing on the investigation which started Monday. CNN Interactive will provide a live Webcast of the hearing.
The documents include airplane maintenance records, reports on how the plane came apart, diagrams of where parts of the plane were found and information on the reconstruction of the wreckage. Select documents are available here. The remaining documents are available for download from CNN Interactive or the NTSB Web site......

Since at least 5-1/2 years will have gone by, from the time of the WTC7 collapse, until the earliest date of the availability of the NIST determination of the causes of that collapse, and considering that the delay in issuing the NIST report, originally promised in May, 2005, will be a longer period than the entire length of the TWA-800 investigation, and the possible risks posed to all constructed steel framed tall buildings that were built or designed in that five year period, from not having a timely determination of the cause of the WTC7 collapse, why is incuriousity and acceptance of the government "line", not "wacked"?

NIST Not Ruling Anything Out on WTC Probe
enr.construction.com - <b>12/09/02</b>
By Tom Ichniowski
<b>About three months into a two-year investigation</b> of the World Trade Center disaster, officials at the National Institute of Standards and Technology say it's too early to rule out any possible scenarios for what caused the buildings to fall.
At a Dec. 9 briefing, NIST Director Arden Bement said NIST feels more study is needed to determine which of the various hypotheses about the WTC collapses is "most probable." Bement adds, "We have concluded that it's too early to exclude any potential sequence of events between the aircrafts' impact and the collapse of the WTC towers."......
...........Bement made a request to the public and the media for photos or video images that could aid NIST's probe. More specifically, NIST is seeking images of WTC 7 and views from the south and west sides of the two WTC towers. Bement says, "In particular, there is a dearth of photos of the south side of WTC 7." That side, some have said, was hit by debris from WTC 1, which may have started the fires that led to WTC 7's collapse."....

The article excerpted above was written nearly four years ago....it described what was supposed to be a two year NIST investigation, which did not even begin until a full year after the 9/11 WTC towers collapsed.
....aren't the real "wack jobs", the incurious folks who not only do not question the government's weird, obstructionist behavior and statements, in the face of such momentous and far reaching 9/11 events, but who make the time and effort to vehemently defend the government's record of obstruction, delay, and non-answers, by repeatedly attacking those who do challenge the "official line", or in this case, the oft postponed, and yet to be disclosed, "official line"?
