There were many people who reported numerous explosions in the WTC buildings. When the firefighters arrived all the ground floor windows had been blown out. There were explosions in the sub-basement floors as reported by severely-injured caretakers who came up from there and by firefighters on the scene. Seismic records substantiate these claims. Isn't 'delusional paranoia' a little less substantive than that? Maybe you should actually *look* at the data- I know as a physicist you've kinda gotten away from that mindset.
