Thank you for your countering my thoughts. The only question I have and comment that I have is:
1) If an out of control fire started by, lets say a gas pipe leak and burned for several hours, do you think the building would have pancaked ?
2) If you think that it would have pancaked under these conditions, do you think that there should have had some type of safty stop built into the structure?
3) Why didn't any one know that the building was going to pancake.


Simple questions?
