Rethink 9/11 billboard in Times Square

[alkemyst]

I have no requirement or feel a need to do so.

I've qualified for Mensa several times over, I just think it's a look at me thing.

You obviously go the other route.

*shrug*

but you keep going. I did qualify for Mensa, I didn't care to join.

you are doing the "look at me" thing "Let's get Alkemyst"

do you understand that?

Keep stirring the pot.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

hahahahahahaha

Thanks alke, this thread is much more entertaining now than the Pr0d1gy direction I was expecting.

Does that make you angry?

To pay attention at this level to my posts shows something you don't agree with.

No principal of the company. It was really good work and a complicated design.

Like I said before, you're the one started stirring it to begin with.

Would not have even paid attention to you at all if you didn't insult me non stop.

Actually I'm just going to stop responding to yours tonight, it's a not worth it really.

like you with cheap food coming out of your pie hole and a cheap T-Shirt on?

GG sir, GG.

BTW your E-Cig looks like a dildo.

Wait, I am a rat terrier?

You are still a NOOB.

And mad.

kthxgb!

And I think you may be a returning banned member as I used to post about people like you biting at my heels A LOT back then.

I am trying to slow my role here, yet your types want to see me amp it up...

and then go cry to the mods when I do.

so did anyone else notice it? surprised they were allowed to post that.
anyway, its interesting that 90% of Americans don't know that the 3rd WTC tower (WTC 7) fell on its own 5 hours after the first two.

where are all of the 9/11 topics anyway? is patriotism dead?!

Patriotism is fine, by those who recognize it's not about an attack.

nope, i am just creepy like that

i do it to everyone here, don't think you're special

you are speaking to a bonefide jack-of-all-trades: http://forums.anandtech.com/showpost.php?p=36517028&postcount=315

The second half of that old adage is "master of none."

 

[dn7309]

didn't bin laden openly confirmed that he was behind the twin towers attack?

 

[Anubis]

nope, i am just creepy like that

i do it to everyone here, don't think you're special

this is true

 

[SandEagle]

another useless tool crawling out from under a rock.
i remember when Osama was on all the news channels denying responsibility and blaming it on a shadow government within the government.

I can't stand when people spout conspiracy theories like that.

Like that.....?

I find your thread worthwhile. Look what I found at one of your links.

I would never have have found this without you.

 

[LegendKiller]

Typical truther bullshit. No surprise Alky thinks he knows about this to. He's about as dumb as McOwned.

You should probably move to Canada.

I don't believe that that whole site fell down from two jets.

Coming from someone who claims MIT-level engineering aptitude that is an extraordinarily unscientific statement. How big a site? What size jets? Moving how fast? How much energy was transferred?

At least you ought to realize that the "whole site" wasn't brought down by the jets. The jets destabilized two structures that held up 3 million tons of mass.

Someone who claims such engineering aptitude ought to have more respect for the work of other engineers, some ability to speak precisely about the forces at work, and at least a modicum of appreciation for the energy released when those two structures failed.

Watch this:

Watch it not just because it is 30 minutes of extraordinary footage, but because it clearly illustrates the scope of the disaster, and the damage caused to nearby structures when 3 million tons of suspended mass is allowed to drop to the ground.

Oh didn't you know they had to break the laws of physics for that to happen!

I still want to bomb these guys to the ice age.

Obviously some do not remember this.

I'm still really pissed.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Just a reminder: alkemyst used the claim that he once lived close to a private airport and had spoken with pilots before as support for his knowledge of airplanes in some argument involving Flight 370.

why was norad so fail that day?

Otis to the WTC

The first base to finally scramble interceptors was Otis in Falmouth, Massachusetts, at 8:52, about a half-hour after Flight 11 was taken over. This was already eight minutes after Flight 11 hit the North Tower, and just 9 minutes before Flight 175 hit the South Tower.
According to NORAD, at the time of the South Tower Impact the two F-15s from Otis were still 71 miles away. Otis is 153 miles east-northeast of the WTC. That means the F-15s were flying at:
(153 miles - 71 miles)/(9:03 - 8:52) = 447 mph That is around 23.8% of their top speed of 1875 mph.
At 9:11 the F-15s finally reached the World Trade Center. Their average speed for the trip was: 153/(9:11 - 8:52) = 483 mph That is around 25.8% of their top speed. Langley to the Pentagon

The F-16s from Langley reached the Pentagon at 9:49. It took them 19 minutes to reach Washington D.C. from Langley AFB, which is about 130 miles to the south. That means the F-16s were flying at:
130 miles/(9:49 - 9:30) = 410.5 mph That is around 27.4% of their top speed of 1500 mph.

wouldn't a terrorist attack be a good reason to speed up?

It is standard operating procedure (SOP) to scramble jet fighters whenever a jetliner goes off course or radio contact with it is lost. Between September 2000 and June 2001, interceptors were scrambled 67 times. 1 In the year 2000 jets were scrambled 129 times. 2
There are several elements involved in domestic air defense. The air traffic control system continuously monitors air traffic and notifies NORAD of any deviations of any aircraft from their flight-paths or loss of radio contact. NORAD monitors air and space traffic continuously and is prepared to react immediately to threats and emergencies. It has the authority to order units from the Air National Guard, the Air Force, or other armed services to scramble fighters in pursuit of jetliners in trouble.
