40. That's exactly why the thermite nonsense was invented in the first place...

... because it's quite clear from the lack of huge explosion sounds and seismic spikes that the Towers were not conventional controlled demolitions, so by "truther logic" they must have been unconventional demolitions, of a type never seen before or since. The major problem with that hypothesis is that one of the pro-demolition arguments was that the only way the Towers could have suddenly fallen straight down as they did would be if all the columns on one level were destroyed virtually simultaneously. That would be quite a trick to get the thermite to melt through all those columns at the same instant. In fact, it's absurdly implausible.

What else you got?
