Simulation shows effect of insulation in collapse of buildings on 9/11
Looks like the Purdue University computer simulation story has made it to USA Today. Time to post in the comments section!

Simulation shows effect of insulation in collapse of buildings on 9/11
A new computer simulation supports the argument that the impact of the airplanes sheared off the insulation and weakened the structure of the World Trade Center before the Twin Towers collapsed on Sept. 11, 2001, according to the Associated Press.
"The report concludes that the weight of the aircraft's fuel, when ignited, produced 'a flash flood of flaming liquid' that knocked out a number of structural columns within the building and removed the fireproofing insulation from other support structures," Christoph Hoffmann tells the wire service.
Hoffman tells the AP that this was the first time 3-D animation was used to simulate the impact and the aftermath of the attacks. He says it shows insulation is a key part of fireproofing.
You can watch a simulation on YouTube.

Please go to Truthdig and see how this Purdue simulation is being used against 9/11truth. Robert Scheer's TruthDig.com is a real gatekeeker's hangout, where negative comments outweigh truther posts (they have never posted one of my posts). Go to this site and try your best to make your pitch in a common sense, non hysteric, concise manner. they do their best to dumb us down to the lowest level possible.
