The runaway destruction of the floors is settled/trivial engineering. Each floor was massively overload one after the other. Severely overloaded floor with shatter, turn to rubble, dust, chunks of concrete and steel.
The toppling of the...
And you cannot have "a well instrumented, well recorded collapse (demolition) and rubble pile" until AFTER the building has collapsed. Which defeats the goal of PREDICTION.
The military are people... like people who make up stuff in the civilian world. I take the military reports of fantastic maneuvers and out of this world performance with the same skepticism as all reports. Where is the proof, data, facts, etc...
@Henkka @Mendel's summary is accurate. These are your points:
Both those two assumptions are optimistic. Both seem to assume a level of interest greater than there actually is.
Academic and professional interest in understanding the WTC...
yes, but that does not translate to scientific interest
I don't see any benefits to advancing science that could come from this
and most of the "massive public" interested in this are either truthers, or people unfamiliar with the work that has...

The paper I linked in the column 87 thread (at https://www.metabunk.org/threads/was-column-79-the-achilles-heel-of-wtc7.12391/post-271005 ) shows there were several simulations, and they don't agree, even though there are more observations to...
As with most words with different meanings, even for Autoritätsdusel can be (differently) translated.
The German Reference Duden describes Dusel as¹):
Use: umgangssprachlich (colloquial <coll.>)
a) random luck while being absent-minded (ie...

I would argue its even the opposite. Because we know there have been so many false reports and hoaxers, and people craving attention and so often faking evidence, this raises the bar for evidence of aliens. You can not assume a picture or video...
In polling, you do have to try and collapse down the range of answers or you risk winding up with as many answers as you have respondents, and can't do anything useful with statistical analysis. (OK, that's overstated for emphasis.) They're...
Phones have a focal length of around 4mm, with a large aperture, so around 2mm for F/2.4. Your SLR example has an aperture of about 10mm. More light per unit area but also you have large pixels, say 10micron. In phones they are 1micron..
