Rainy day truthing...
Today's lunch hour demo was very interesting. One guy stopped and after the obligatory observation of how he always sees me out there he asked me what my "truth" was. I explained about the buildings and for every point he had a debunker's answer (are you aware of WTC7's structural peculiarity, lateral trusses bla bla). He claimed to have been at the site for 51 days assisting in cleanup and rescue and said he took many photos. He claimed that he has seen an aerial photo of WTC7 showing just how damaged it was but at least admitted that the building had not been engulfed in flames.
A little later a couple of young students walked by and one said to the other "why is that guy always here?!" as his friend chuckled.
Then the moment that made my day--a young woman, most likely undergraduate, who looked to be maybe Pakistani walked by and without missing a step turned her hed to me and said quietly "you're doing a great thing" as she walked by.

51 days? right.
did he see or hear of the molten metal? does he have respiratory problems? did his boots melt? was he even more arrogant than i imagine? and those chucklers...it's even better when fifteen of them band together at a party and ridicule you.Â
