This is from an official story believer http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2010/...ro-sept-shame/

Jeffrey Scott Shapiro states, ?I was working as a journalist for Gannett News at Ground Zero that day, and I remember very clearly what I saw and heard.?

?Shortly before the building collapsed, several NYPD officers and Con-Edison workers told me that Larry Silverstein, the property developer of One World Financial Center was on the phone with his insurance carrier to see if they would authorize the controlled demolition of the building ? since its foundation was already unstable and expected to fall.?

In February of 2002 Silverstein Properties won $861 million from Industrial Risk Insurers to rebuild on the site of WTC 7. Silverstein Properties? estimated investment in WTC 7 was $386 million. This building?s collapse alone resulted in a payout of nearly $500 million, based on the contention that it was an unforeseen accidental event.

?A controlled demolition would have minimized the damage caused by the building?s imminent collapse and potentially save lives. Many law enforcement personnel, firefighters and other journalists were aware of this possible option. There was no secret. There was no conspiracy,? writes Shapiro.
