In the archives of the National Institute of Standards and Technology. ABC News got them released with a Freedom of Information request.

I was looking over these the other day. But it's not like we hadn't seen the same before, no need to hold on to these.

I do think that people need to be reminded. Not in a "I'm scared" kind of way, but to remember what happened and what was lost that day, and how far we've come since then. Even after the financial collapse that followed years after, Downtown has shown that it will return, better than before.

Still can’t believe that happened, and that it’s been nearly 10 years.

If you look closely in the 3rd photo you can even see the guy with the plunger demolishing WTC 2!

Hm, I've seen all these before several times, I guess they are newly released to the media.

I’ve seen most of those photos before; hard to believe it’s been nearly ten years…..

no idea the links are all good, but they don't seem to show for me either.

The news media has hidden the fact that Jesus was probably born on September 11, 3 BC..(a book was written all about it in 1981 by Dr Ernest Martin), so it's not surprising that photos would also be hidden.

The link's just old and wasn't archived on that site. The New York Times still has the photos and article up. I'm sure other newspaper sites have them too. They were just not kept on the San Francisco Chronicle's server.

Not a fact at all. You think Osama bin Laden has read the works of Ernest Martin?

why was there so much dust if the WTC was all metal and glass? It looks like a concrete/bricks structure collapsing. (Im sure there is a reasonable explanation. I am NOT a conspiracy theorist)

uaarkson · #18 Posted **Jul 29, 2010, 11:06 PM**

Two 400m+ skyscrapers are gonna produce shitloads of dust no matter what they're made of.

probably, but why? From what materials in the building does so much dust comes from?

^drywall? Most modern office buildings are highly subdivided on each floor, but it has to be very temporary to cater to changing tenancies. I've seen drywall used on many buildings I've been in so it wouldn't surprise me if this created a lot of the dust in the WTC collapses.
