While we're at it, did you know that WTC fires were not hot enough to
bring the buildings down. The 2000 degree melting tale is a lie. It's
almost twice that.

Suuuure it is, Bob. Got a source for that? Other than your typical
conspiracy theory wackos, that is.

Machinerys Handbook quotes 2500F as the melting point for carbon steel.
The temperature at which it loses significant strength is a hell of a
lot less. At 2000F, steel has gone an orange-red colour and is easily
deformed, is non-magnetic as it has undergone a phase change to pretty
much pure austenite.

You *did* know that the WTC buildings had structural steel skeletons,
didn't you?

IOW, you're full of ****. As usual. Stick to fuzzy videos, every time
you venture to present a fact on anything vaguely relating to tools or
materials science, it's wrong.
