I was somewhat stunned at how well we came out looking at the end.

And even though 'they' held back some of our best material (Steve's thermite research), I'd say we earned a draw at worst.

We are now officially on the map for good because they tried and in my view failed to knock us off of the cyber-world map.

I thought for sure 'they' were holding onto a few aces for an opportunity that the History Chennel doc would provide and yet, they didnt play them because I think 'they' are out of aces.

I suspect that the 'official' conspiracy folks are finished as a viable opposition to us.

The doc rattled off quite a good number of points of ours and yet their 'Expert Opinion' rebuttals wound up simply being opinions being offered mostly by a just out of college looking 'Research Editor' of PM's.

The Minetta segment airing was a real surprise to me as well as the admission that NIST was contemplating the controlled demo hypothesis for WTC 7.

And showing WTC 7 falling in the same fashion as other actual building demo's didn't hurt either.

Don't fret kids - in the long term this doc was a win for us.

The other side didn't debunk anything as much as they tried at times to make it seem that way and I think many more minds were opened up to our views.

When the student is ready the teacher will come.

Did you notice that each time before they went to a commercial they let the 9/11 Debunkers have the last say. They also had the last say at the end of the show. This was purposely done for the viewers to think about what was last said by the debunkers. They certainly favored the 9/11 Debunkers in this program. Take Care Matt

>>You said it -- I, we -- were short-changed -- out of two hours, scientists and engineers from the 9/11 Truth community were given just a couple of sentences.

Yes, and indeed the purpose of this program is the same as all the FOX News broadcasts pretending to be "debates" which are actually merely a means for them to present THEIR best case . . . by standing on top of our weakest points while hiding the strongest. It's fomula and it happens like clockwork every anniversary.

Until we emphasize our strongest points on the front pages of our websites, talks and groups, and put our weakest and most debated points on the back burner, FOX and NBC can always find someone who they can stand on to refute the weakest claims to make themselves look good. Until we as a community make the distinction between what strong evidence we want to advance to the public, and what weak evidence requires more analysis and discussion before putting it out there front and center, we will always be easily ridiculed.

The easiest way to turn people off to an opponent is simply to find just one easily refutable point where he has gone out on a limb ("no passengers," "no hijackers," "missiles," etc), and that takes him out entirely for most viewers who think critically, work with professionals, and understand basics about the attacks.

They will never interview our engineers and scientists unless they can corner them on the weak claims ("no passengers," "no hijackers," "missiles," etc).

SO, if we want our engineers and scientists to get out there, we have to do it ourselves.

That means putting them front and center of our promotions to the public, making wikipedia pages, making myspace pages, continuing to write papers, submitting papers to academic journals, etc.

I think the paper submission to an academic journal has huge potential because if that happens then massive scientific debate may ensue and force media coverage.

We also have to keep our scientist and engineer groups functional and growing . . .

It is no surprise to me the History Channel is part of the corporate propaganda machine. The hack job you guys did on the 9/11 special last night was so obvious. Popular Mechanics journalist's are by no means experts and have committed journalistic fraud to say the least. "The debunkers, people like James Meigs whose scientific expertise stretches as far as being the editor of Video Review and Entertainment Weekly, were labeled as experts while real experts like Physicist Professor Steven Jones were stripped of any such description." -http://www.infowars.com/articles/sept11/history_channel_hit_piece_dirty_tricks_malicious_lies_journalistic_fraud.htm

Bradley Davis, Hearst Publishing (Popular Mechanics), GE, NBC, A&E, History Channel and all others involved with this corporate born piece of crap will all go down in history as LIARS! We The People do know the truth and you corporate slaves are far from it. Every one of you can take your corporate world and shove it were the sun don't shine. At least there all those stinking lies will be right at home. –Chris Thomas

Joe Allbaugh, the Director of FEMA, was interviewed by Bryant Gumbel of CBS news on October 10 2001:
GUMBEL: We’re seeing a lot of video of smoke pouring up from the debris.
ALLBAUGH: Correct.
GUMBEL: And we’re hearing there are places where temperatures are still approaching and sometimes exceeding a thousand degrees.
ALLBAUGH: That’s right.
GUMBEL: Why? Why do we have these hot spots? What’s going on?
ALLBAUGH: Well, you have normal debris, you know, computers, paper, you have some areas that are hot pockets because of fuel. It’s just too hot for rescuers to get into those areas. So we do not know yet what’s in those areas, other than very hot, molten material. (source_FEMA.gov)
