There is no top block, it turns to dust.
This is a stupid assumption, and asserting it simply makes you appear to be an idiot, again.

Greening has also exposed his "Crush-down crush-up" theory as a joke. In a private email to me, he admitted that it is wrong, but prefers to leave it published as it is, "warts and all".
The crush down crush up model cannot possibly survive scientific scrutiny, for it relies upon the assumption that the top block remains relatively intact and that no more than 20% of the mass is "shed" outside the footprint, both demonstrably false. There is no top block, it turns to dust. Worse, the model treats the core as a series of "floors" that respond individually to each impact. In reality, a falling mass would encounter "the frame", which is founded on bedrock. All of which ignores how the top block goes into free-fall in the first place, an impossibility given that steel loses strength gradually.
Even forgetting these fatal problems, crush-down crush-up cannot explain the pulverization, so Greening denies it, as do JREFs. All of which led me to my conclusion that "Frank Greening is divorced from reality". This is taking Greening's crush-down crush-up paper at face value. Actually, a scientist of Greening's caliber could not possibly have missed the errors I just pointed out, so we conclude that Greening is disinfo. This latest disinfo piece, "Spiked Fireproofing" is just further proof.

I am sorry, Ace, YOU KNOW THIS IS NOT TRUE!

Steven Jones announced his newest theory last week: 9/11 and Global Warming: the Chemtrail Link

i'm sorry. over exposure to vast amounts of 911 truthiness has interrupted the regular function of my sarcasmin detection. is that link serious? or is that sarcasim?
Keyboard player: Jeez - that was really a mess!
Ace: It's okay, we'll fix it in the mix!
This can't possibly be true, I can't imagine the size of the gun required to fire such a shell...the largest artillery shells ever fired were only about 7 tons,

'Tis satire, OMGturt1es
(Note the name of the blog for a - ahem - raging clue)
Yeah, just found it here. Holy mother of all artillery!The Nazi rail-guns.... 800mm shells at 5 to 8 tonnes.

First of all I should tell you that some of the assumptions I used in my WTC collapse model were made only to simplify the math. In the year or more since my first published work on this subject in 2005, I have made many refinements to my calculation. I have simply not got around to writing a new paper. However, unlike Dr. Jones, I am not one to keep revising something I have already published. I prefer to leave my original paper more or less as it was first conceived (warts and all), and try to answer criticisms of it as best I can.……
But, be that as it may, let me say right away that although the assumption that all the mass remains in the upper block throughout the collapse was indeed made in my paper, this approximation is not crucial to a self-sustaining collapse. I and others, such as David Benson and Shagster on Physorg, have done many additional collapse calculations that consider so-called mass shedding and find that significant mass shedding can occur without causing collapse arrest. So any criticisms of my original paper with regard to this issue would be like criticizing the Wright brothers for not having wheels on their first airplane!
No, they wouldn't be like that at all. They would be like criticizing someone else's first airplane for not being able to fly. All versions of CDCU make provably false assumptions about energy sinks (top block, amount of pulverizaion, mass staying in footprint) and ignore some energy sinks altogether (like the mushroom cloud, or anything else you wish to name it, the expansion of the pyroclastic flow, or anthing else you wish to name it).
