Lets not forget simple physics either. When the accelerating mass is much larger than the mass of each stationary floor then the resistance is minimal and the new increased mass will continue to accelerate.
Then there's the whole finite element thing. As the exterior frame fell away the lower floors would start falling even before impacted by the large mass above.
Simply put you post a lot of words but clearly have little idea of the physics involved.
Nice to see you suddenly back. Convenient, but, I'll help refresh the memory there.
Care to address this response, where you said ,"people would notice things being done" and my response is "yeah, so what" people see "construction"crews working all the time, nobody stops to ask them what they're doing, they go on with their lives.
Nice try slick.
Here's the thread.

How many times have you driven by a construction site and seen them tearing things up, then stopping to ask them what they're doing?
Now if you have, like I have (to satiate my own curiosity), got your answer and walked away saying "interesting" or "oh ok".
Did you ever go in an inspect to see the work they're doing? Probably not, because you know for certain they'd tell you "what are you doing? get off the site/premises! etc. "
Or did you take them for face value, like what the majority of people do when they see a "crew" working on a site, walk by and go on with their lives.
What about the explosions heard near the ground floor? Would the planes have triggered some kind of explosion which was heard down below as well?
I posted a actual scientific study on tensile characteristics of structural steel at temperatures. At even a few hundred degrees structural steel loses a significant amount of strength. Considering the added loads that the damage from the planes shifted to the remaining structure there is no way the weakened steel could have even supported its own weight let alone the load from the floors above.
I'll go ahead with your "actual" scientific study and match you with Dr. Steven Jones - an expert in thermite who found "nano-thermitic" evidence at the site.

"After a rigorous peer-review process, their paper was published in the Bentham Chemical Physics Journal, which has been endorsed by Nobel Laureates and is respected within the scientific community."
I'm hoping this passes in your eyes as an "actual scientific study" as well.
