Anonymous Coward User ID: 240823 United States 05/23/2007 09:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | FEMA scientists study sulfur presence from steel of WTC Why has this not been a smoking gun issue?: Official FEMA scientists Jonathan Barnett, Ronald R. Biederman, and R. D. Sisson, Jr. study sulfur found from the steel of wtc: In Appendix C of FEMA's May 1, 2002 "investigative" report on why the towers collapsed, reference was made to a corrosive substance found on WTC steel: "The severe corrosion and subsequent erosion of samples 1 and 2 constitute an unusual event. No clear explanation for the source of the sulfur has been identified." Source: [ link to www.fema.gov] This called for further study, to determine what the source of this sulfur was, and what caused the steel to severely erode and corrode. But was this done? NIST, whose job it was to conduct such an investigation in order to silence skeptics, admits that it did no such thing: "NIST did not test for the residue of...[explosive] compounds in the steel....NIST concluded that there were no explosives or controlled demolition involved in the collapses of the WTC towers." Source: [ link to wtc.nist.gov] Well, there you have it! NIST assures us, with all its scientific credibility, that there was no sign of explosives being used to take the towers down. Yet they admit that they never tested for the presence of such explosives!!! Science indeed! |

It is what caused the New York State Department of Health to report that, even after 50 days after 9/11, there were still high concentrations in the air around Ground Zero of sulphurous gases and sulphur-containing particulates. Unfortunately, Steven E. Jones does not want to believe that this was the cause of the high concentrations of sulfur in the iron-rich spheres he found in a dust sample taken from a house 100 metres from Ground Zero. Too bad. His claim to have detected thermate is easily debunked. |

Above 1450 o C, material can decompose and release sulfur dioxide
Thats Celsius, so it would have had to ahve been like a furnace, which we all know it was not.
Nice try shiller |
