VegyRex, please help me.

The following is a video of a BBC reporter reporting on the collapse of WTC buiding #7, 20 minutes before it happened.

Please tell me how people like you rationalize this.

I need to sleep better.

I don't understand how that would bolster your theory at all. It was chaotic, the reporter got the wrong information and went on the air with it. She used the phrase 'the area is completly sealed off' twice, she didn't have any special access. It's not even like she said they were about to demolish it, she said it fell on its own. I was in New York then, and rumors about all sorts of things were running around because people were desperate for any information, the way I would assume it always is in those kinds of situations. It means nothing, one way or the other.

this is right up there with Kurt and Marilyn, under the category

"dead horses people are never going to stop kicking"

I agree.

Not that 9/11 conspiracies don't fascinate me, because they do.

But I remember watching the news that day and how just straight-out dumb****ed everyone was. There was so much misinformation reported and there was so much confusion...and I felt this in a little town in Wisconsin.

I cannot even imagine what a reporter with a job to do in NY would have felt like.

Considering on one station there was a 2 1/2 minute shot of just half a wall and a studio window with people screaming "****! ****! HOLY **** WHAT IS HAPPENING" in the background, it's not surprising that the media wee'd the bed just a bit on this one.
