video: Psychology & WTC7

Asch 'Conformity' experiment and the Milgram 'Obedience' experiment go a short way to explaining how on earth people can think that fire bought down WTC7 on 911, i.e. because an authority figure said so. But with one dissenting voice the group think breaks down. Speak the truth and more people will also.
... [the experiment] shows that much of the power of the group came not merely from its numbers but from the unanimity of its opposition
