I just proposed a theory -- structural failure -- as plausible as yours and much more likely completely pulverized -- I would expect so with god knows how many tons of steel and concrete falling from a height of 100s of feet -- lotsa energy there !! Do you have direct knowlege of the building techniques used in the 1960s that you can say they didnt use high sulphur steels ?? The stainless steel used in the chrysler building (also in New York but built 30 years earlier) was made from high sulphur pig iron, with chromium and nickel added -- so there was a time when high sulphur steels were used -- do the research, prove that it wasnt the steel itself contributing to the high sulphur -- what we use things for today says nothing about how they were used 40 years ago !! And occams razor applies to anything, there are no caveats limiting it to any specific field. !! Dont bother to post again until you can deliver some FACTS !!! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
