FIRES IN THE WORLD TRADE CENTER
![]()
NOVEMBER 13, 2004. Ever since September 11, 2001, the question has been raised: why exactly did the WTC towers hit by the planes collapse?
Many theories have been put forth, but the official explanation offers the conclusion that the fires in those two towers were caused by jet fuel from the planes---and the fires melted the steel and there was no more structural integrity. Hence, the collapse.
There are several ways to question this conclusion.
In fact, PBS devoted an entire special to the matter. Their Frontline piece admitted that fires from the jet fuel would not have caused the buildings to collapse...and from there they cast around for an answer. They came up with a far-out idea: the jet-fuel fires ignited other flammable material inside the towers and that ensuing fire melted the steel.
But apparently different fires burn at different temperatures. Jet fuel burns higher, for example, than plastic chairs or rugs. If the jet-fuel fire did not melt the steel, how did the "burning chairs?"
I am printing, below, a Nov. 11, 2004, letter on the WTC fires and the steel. It is posted now at the 9-11 Visibility Project. It comes from a man who works at a company that has been involved in analyzing the situation. My feeling is that this letter is legit. I have confirmed so far that the company, Underwriters Laboratories (UL), exists, and that the man who wrote the letter, Kevin Ryan, works for UL. I left him a message on his voice mail.
I noticed, at the 9-11 Visibility Site, that when I tried to follow links from the site to the original of the letter, I kept winding up back at the same site page. So I wanted to track down the original, if possible. I am not casting any aspersions on the 9-11 Visibility Project. I've called them and left a message for assistance.
It's just that the letter is very important, in what it says, in what it concludes. For example, it calls those secondary "chair fires" short-lived. That, if true, would completely rule out any steel damage from that source.
The letter also makes reference to people that UL contacted in its investigation, people who helped at risk to themselves. This certainly sends off alarm bells. The letter implies there are forces at work trying to cover up what really happened in the towers on 9/11.
I won't go into the testimony from firefighters about bombs exploding in the towers.
Note that UL was the company that certified the steel components used in the construction of the WTC. They would have a stake in assuring they hadn't made any mistakes. Nevertheless...here is the letter:
The collapse of the WTC
by Kevin Ryan
Underwriters Laboratories
Thursday, Nov 11, 2004
(The following letter was sent today by Kevin Ryan of Underwriters Laboratories to Frank Gayle of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Underwriters Laboratories is the company that certified the steel components used in the constuction of the World Trade Center towers. The information in this letter is of great importance.) This paragraph in parentheses was written by people at the 9-11 Visibility Project--JR
Dr. Gayle,
Snip
There is no question that the events of 9/11 are the emotional driving force behind the War on Terror. And the issue of the WTC collapse is at the crux of the story of 9/11. My feeling is that your metallurgical tests are at the crux of the crux of the crux. Either you can make sense of what really happened to those buildings, and communicate this quickly, or we all face the same destruction and despair that come from global decisions based on disinformation and ¡°chatter¡±.
Thanks for your efforts to determine what happened on that day. You may know that there are a number of other current and former government employees that have risked a great deal to help us to know the truth. I've copied one of these people on this message as a sign of respect and support. I believe your work could also be a nucleus of fact around which the truth, and thereby global peace and justice, can grow again. Please do what you can to quickly eliminate the confusion regarding the ability of jet fuel fires to soften or melt structural steel.

end of letter
A final comment: the last two paragraphs in the letter are extraordinary, given that the letter seems to come from a very mainstream company...these paragraphs clearly imply that the whole war on terror has been based on a lie, and that what happened on 9/11 was some kind of op designed with deception in mind.
