Tacohitts Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 The Manderin Hotel still stood after the fire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHqRw7lEK5A your theories and opinions on why
candyman Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Um, its engineering. My cousing in an engineer working in New York right now and who does everyone call on to help out in design and construction...CHINA! China has recently been building some of the best buildings and towers in the world. They are the leaders in frame construction and structural support. They are also the leaders in testing and gathering data on the effects of natural disasters which also makes them the leader in innovative technologies in how to reduce of prevent damage in such situations. OMA designed the building which means, to those that know what OMA is, that is it one damn good building, even if it is in China. All that being said, the majority of the damage has not even been analyzed yet because it will take alot of time runnign all of the tests and taking down all of the data, and then putting all the pieces together. Offical reports say that the building still could collapse. Just because it burned and didn't fall down doesn't mean shit. Most of the news I am hearing about it says that it will either need tons of rebuilding to make it sturdy again, or that it will be torn down. So...if your hinting at this being a conspiracy I don't see much evidence to support that. Lots of large buildings have fires. Not many of them go through the same exact situations and they have different design parameters. Also, ownership and such of that building was only in the early stages of talking so...there is really nobody that looses a ton of money and there is not much insurance to collect. To sum it up: There was a fire, shit burned, the building didn't fall and is maimed...OH NO IT WAS PROBABLY THE ILLUMINATI! Because we all know that large building are fire and collapse proof unless some secret group or any other group plots some evil plan around it...
Destroit Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Man, the whole WTC "conspiracy" stuff is getting sooo old...it's pretty much all been disproven. I haven't even heard anyone bring it up in years because it was a fad thing that flaired up after 9/11 and died out somewhat quickly afterwards.
candyman Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Oh and it may be too late to say it but...don't watch Southland Tales. Now, I have done my fair share of drugs, but there is no way in hell that anyone I know could afford enough acid to make a movie even 1/4 as fucked up as that. If you see truth there, agree with things, or even giggle once I fear it is too late and the only thing that a scan of your brain will show is empty space and horribly worn out Bush jokes...
