jessicarabbit is dissatisfied with the papers I referred her to

Gravy: Why would you ask a tour guide for a scientific analysis of the collapse of the towers? You've already been referred to Bazant & Zhou (2001), Bazant (2006), Greening (2005-6). Your refutation of their work? Your experts? Your peer-reviewed articles?

jessica: If you dont understand the papers you cite then thats fine. I do and I don't buy them.

This is a place for her to present her calculations, or the calculations of others, that refute those papers.
 
I predict that Jessica won't post a bit of mathmatical analysis of any of those papers in this thread or elsewhere.

You hear that Randi? :p
 
Well, since crazy wabbit isn't gonna post in here, let's try something related.

Ask me if I understand how airplanes fly?
 
Judging from her "probability" fiasco in the long thread, I agree. And if she were capable of doing the math, why hasn't she done so before, and destroyed these cherished beliefs of ours?

Anyway, she can present anyone's work here. She should know that Gordon Ross has been covered here by R.Mackey and others.
 
The $1 million is gonna be mine, all mine!

Gravy, I might even buy you a plasma TV for starting this thread after I collect!

say bell, do you know how airplanes fly?

Yes, in a very layman's description, it has to do with the wings generating lift, allowing the airplane to take of.

Now, ask me if I have ever flown aboard a 747?
 
Is Lisa here to admonish Gravy for starting this thread?
Seems like jessica has got her knickers in a twist about it.

have you ever flown on a 747? (i havent, lol)

Yes, I have (as a passenger that is) (quite an experience, default :) )

Now, ask me if I understand all the calculations that went into designing this aircraft, allowing it to fly?

Well, do ya?

Actually, I don't.

So I guess that means I'm unqualified to recognize a 747 flying over my house when I see one?

He has a point. I would like to see your analysis of the total collapse after initiation please gravy.

Could I have a slightly more scientific analysis? Maybe a few equations and a quantitative breakdown.

Gravy this is not a dump for you to name papers you don't understand.

Please present your arguments for total collapse or withdraw.

If you dont understand the papers you cite then thats fine. I do and I don't buy them

Thats not how this site works. You made a claim, please present your evidence to support it. If you don't understand that evidence (and not understanding the math indicates you don't) then that's fine.

If Bazant is a structural engineer he is a poor one. But I will not discuss this with people who dont understand the papers

P.S. I have reported the new thread to the admin as I specifically requested it not be started.
