Your video, High-Rise Fire Fighting Drones, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Yes, but very high tech fire, for example after a 9.2 earthquake in San Fran maybe entire burning neighborhoods would burn green/blue

Ha, I have slept through my dorm(itory)'s loud high pitch fire alarm even if I am partially deaf without my analog bone conduction hearing aid. My room and suite mates didn't even wake me up! If it wasn't a false alarm, then I wouldn't be here.

"There were a lot of firsts for the WTC. In all the history of high-rise fires, not one has ever been hit with a plane traveling 500 miles an hour and had its fire proofing removed from its trusses. In all the history of high-rise fires, not one has ever had its steel columns which hold lateral load sheared off by a 767. In all the history of high-rise fires, not one has ever been a building which had its vertical load bearing columns in its core removed by an airliner. For Building 7, in all the history of high-rise fires, not one has ever been left for 6-7 hours with its bottom floors on fire with structural damage from another building collapse."

I see the third steel structure building ever in history to collapse from a fire. 3 buildings in one day, but has never happened before in history. Wonder what the odds of that happening are?



From your link "Debunking 9/11":

"It is impressive that the World Trade Center towers held up as long as they did after being attacked at full speed by Boeing 767 jets, because they were only designed to withstand a crash from the largest plane at the time: the smaller, slower Boeing 707. And according to Robertson, the 707's fuel load was not even considered at the time."

This is actually not entirely true at all. According to this site:
http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/analysis/design.html

Not only the is size of a Boeing 707 only slightly smaller than a Boeing 767, but it holds only a mere 980 gallons less fuel, and is faster than a 767 by 77MPh.

Also:
"Engineers who participated in the design of the World Trade Center have stated, since the attack, that the Towers were designed to withstand jetliner collisions. For example, Leslie Robertson, who is featured on many documentaries about the attack, said he "designed it for a (Boeing) 707 to hit it." 2 Statements and documents predating the attack indicate that engineers considered the effects of not only of jetliner impacts, but also of ensuing fires."

And:
John Skilling was the head structural engineer for the World Trade Center. In a 1993 interview, Skilling stated that the Towers were designed to withstand the impact and fires resulting from the collision of a large jetliner such as Boeing 707 or Douglas DC-8.

"Our analysis indicated the biggest problem would be the fact that all the fuel (from the airplane) would dump into the building. There would be a horrendous fire. A lot of people would be killed, ... The building structure would still be there."

A white paper released on February 3, 1964 states that the Towers could have withstood impacts of jetliners travelling 600 mph -- a speed greater than the impact speed of either jetliner used on 9/11/01.

"The buildings have been investigated and found to be safe in an assumed collision with a large jet airliner (Boeing 707—DC traveling at 600 miles per hour. Analysis indicates that such collision would result in only local damage which could not cause collapse or substantial damage to the building and would not endanger the lives and safety of occupants not in the immediate area of impact."

I love this song. I also love bands like The Jesus Lizard and High On Fire, so fuck off. I also love these old Wham! videos where we were all still pretending that George Michael wasn't gay.

I bet this still won't wake me up if I can sleep through my college dorm's high pitch fire alarms.

Yes! I hate it when they use up memory on AI when it's supposed to be used for animating EVERY SINGLE BOARD IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF MY NAVAL BASE.

At least now I know that when my tanks abandon their mission to hunt that rouge ore truck, my destruction will be rendered in spectacular, high-definition fire balls.

My non technical definition of a "riff" would be anything piece or part of a song that digs into your skull and will not go away. It's the part of the song that when you hear it makes you say Hell Yea! and go scrambling for the volume knob.
The riffs haven't disappeared over the last 10 years they just don't reside on the radio dial anymore. It's not hip hop(that was 20 years ago) that drove them into hiding it's "core" music. You know metalcore, mallcore, emocore, breakdowncore, whatever you want to call it. That coupled with corporate run radio have driving anything with heart deep down into the underground. So you have to look a little harder for it. It's there. Examples? Ok
From the last 10 years:
High On Fire-Hung,Drawn and Quarter(they also just put out a new album that is so rifftastic it's scarey)
Kylesa-Time will Fuse It's Worth(whole album)
Tragedy-The Point Of No Return(The acoustic part give way to the brutality)
Hellshock-Your World(awesome!)
Grand Magus, Fu Manchu, Down, Nebula all have a Sabbath like vibe to them and they are all current along with a literal ton of others in that vein. And they all have no shortage of riffs.
Not to mention the myriads of old bands still in service, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Morbid Angel, Entombed(total riff band), the new Voivod rules, ect.
It's there I promise you just have to accept the riffs they offer as your personal savior and all will be right. Now go in peace and don't forget to feel it when you listen because if you don't feel it then you are just wasting your time.
