no question population is an issue but people are living longer than ever which kind of indicates your hypothesis is unfounded I am afraid

My boyfriend believes the conspiracy theory about underpopulation. I agree with you though. But I do think chemicals and crap are in our food to make humans sick over time. Like AIDS. I wouldn't be shocked if it was man-made, but I haven't done enough research to believe either way.

Climate Gate anyone?

Physics for one.
Yeah buildings collapse when their internal structure is greatly compromised. I'm not sure how this is a surprise.


Especially the way the Twin Towers were built. They basically did not have the traditional "skeleton"-like internal structure of most buildings. They utilized a new way of supporting the building that relied on a more "external" steel framework that is not as strong as the aforementioned steelwork. It goes up quicker and is cheaper though, that is mainly why they did it.


Physics on 9/11.. I watched a TV show where they talked to the Architects that designed those towers and it was quite interesting to see what they had to say..
I happen to know many structural engineers (some in my family) and they have said that any engineer can look at that collapse as see that it was not controlled at all.

OK and the biggest thing that makes you believe so ( just curious ) ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Cobain

Not just one big thing really. Just the ones mentioned in that article. Plus I have watched a few shows on it. That said I very much doubt it will ever be proven conclusively.

Watch Kurt and Courtney... it's a documentary, and I think it fairly conclusively shows that there's a whole lot of things about Kurt's death that don't add up as a suicide.

Eh, debate doesn't usually get me off. Agree to disagree?

I wasn't aware that philosophy is debate. But okay *waves*

You weren't aware that philopsophy is a debate?

Plato disagreed with Socrates
Aristotle disagreed with Plato
Plutarch thus disagreed with Aristotle
Descartes disagreed with all of the above
Hume questioned Descartes logic
Kant discounted Descartes most famous saying "I think therefore I am" (Cogito ergo sum)
Habermas requalified Kant's logic.

It's all one big debate for thousands of years, unfortunatley.

This was the Architect that designed the towers..

My Physics point was more based on the theory of how fast the towers crumbled and some believe it was impossible for the domino effect to happen that fast without help from below..

God damn it why do they keep on talking about "melting" steel.


Steel does not have to melt to compromise a structure. It only has to be flexible enough to buckle under the massive amount of weight on top of it.
