So your assuming that everyone who heard noises in the basement was aware of what was happening one hundred floors above them. I think just the opposite. I think in the main lobby - which was huge - a fireball came down and shit was falling from the sky. They might have heard an impact, but they might not have known where it came from. I would have imagined the noise would have been huge but then again your taking about a very large building that is completely sealed off, floor by floor, with lots of sound proofing.

Maybe they thought it was from the basement, when it was really from an elevator shaft that lead to the impact floors?

Not at all.

"belt like detonations" sounds like floors slamming into each other. Or god only knows what exploding.

This is a perfect example of saying "This must have been detonations" when it could have been anything. Keep in mind that that by the time the towers fell, there was huge uncontrolled fires on multiple floors in multiple buildings exploding god only knows what. Your talking about a huge building that has massive fireballs running through it.

Why couldn't have the bottom three quarters to two-thirds of the two towers not have been compromised enough? Fireballs of jet fuel exploding at different levels where the sky lobbies were, setting everything on fire....

And again you mention molten steel... Why does anything think there wouldn't be molten steel? Your talking about underground fires that were so hot they were mapped out by airplanes - that burned uncontrolled for weeks. Just seems like common sense you would have molten steel.
