JREF 9-11 Forum
This is my JREF posting history in these same subjects from 2010 to the present:
May 11, 2010: OOS Collapse Model thread that branched into this thread
and
October 26, 2010: WTC 1 Feature List, WTC 2 Feature List merged
These last 2 threads were merged together and moved out of the 9-11 sub-forum.
And a follow-up thread here:
Major_Tom Disproves NIST Claims in a Number of Key Areas
I have 3 years of examples which show how many JREF posters handle technical discussions. Many have no history of having an informed, fact-based technical discussion in those threads over a 3 year period.
The Femr video analysis thread also shows how many JREF posters handle technical discussions. He has been explaining the same graphs for 2 years.
Discussion of femr's video data analysis
I'd prefer technical discussion, but I got to see in detail how many of the posters view the NIST reports instead. I got a chance to see how many people respond to information. Anything surprising? No, it is pretty much what I expected to see.
The threads are mostly psychological in nature. I originally intended to have technical discussions, but the same psychological themes kept resurfacing (page after page). Any efforts at some type of discussion which is technical in nature was consistently interrupted by this deep-seated psychological need to support the claims made in the reports by any means necessary.
Why this is so is understandable. The NIST reports are the centerpiece of a belief in technical certainty and the valid application of scientific technical reasoning with respect to the WTC collapse events.
I would not have known how vitally important these reports are to various people unless I experienced the discussions personally over a prolonged period of time. My first reaction would be to assume these convictions are some sort of joke. It was only after prolonged exposure that I realized how serious this need actually is.
