May 9 commentary "For links to the articles I read on the air, guest websites, archived shows, my commentaries, a listener's discussion forum, and the text of Mark Stanneart’s latest commentary, visit: www.rabblerousing.org."

Speaking of mark stanneart, a week or so ago his commentary. alluded to the bay area freeway collapsing from a burning tanker truck and brought up the comparison to the world trade center towers collapsing due to burning jet fuel from the airliners. He wondered if any of the people questioning the official govt conspiracy theories would now back off. Well, he lit my fires and I dashed off this reply to him. Call this the battle of the commentators: in fariness to him, ive since discovered that he was really only pulling our chains so to speak, but just in case some listeners have people in their world who rerallyb do try to validate the govts story of how the towers fell by pointing to the freeway collapse, I now give you my letter to mark. dear mark. nice commentary on our dependency on the concrete and asphalt bloodlines that keep our system functioning, but in questioning those who doubt the govt conspiracy theory that burning jet fuel brought down the 2 towers, you ignore the fact that gasoline burns much hotter than kerosine, and the explosion and fire on the freeway was directly beneath the section that collapsed. last time i talked with issac newton, heat goes up. Far more important, the planes didnt hit nor their load of kerosine burn anywhere near the center support collums. Those events took plane on the towers periphery. Anyone witnessing the tv footage of the planes hitting the towers, can see that most if not all the jet fuel exploded and burnt upon impact. That’s what the fiery explosions were- burning jet fuel. the fuel did not leak out, flow to the center of the towers, and then suddenly combust there. if those immediate explosions weakened any steel, it would have been on the periphery, not at the center. and im sorry, but the resulting secondary fires of burning carpets, desks, and office paper might make a pretty good bonfire, but wouldnt be nearly hot enuff to weaken structural steel over the one hour period before the collapse. especially when the fires produced black smoke, indicating oxygen starved fires. such fires dont burn nearly as hot as with ample oxygen. please note that i keep using the word weaken, and never melt. anyone on either side of this argument who refers to melt is leading us down a false path. you dont need to melt anything but peoples closed minds. you only need to heat steel sufficient to weaken it to collapse it, but if you do manage to get steel to that temperature, it will not collapse neatly in a verticle fall. that requires expertise. these muslim terrorists obviously had god on their side, but even god would be hard pressed to collapse the towers as perfectly as they did. one must suspect human help. As ive commented on before, if the buildings failed at their periphery, they would have toppled just like a tree cut by a tree faller. toppling towards the weakened side. they did not. they fell straight down, in perfect fashion, exactly as in a controlled demolition. whatever happened to the old domino theory? logically, those towers should have toppled to their weak side and taken out a lot of neighboring buildings with them. but all that valuable real estate was virtually untouched. oh, excuse me, except for wtc 7, which sustained absolutely no damage from the aircraft, nor the resulting fires, but managed to magically fall neatly into its own footprint anyway. add to this conundrum the published conclusions of physics prof steven jones of byu. he was subsequently fired from his position at that bastion of kooky liberalism for expressing his views, [a huge no no in geo orwell land where we send our children to die around the world to preserve freedom of speach but as of recent pentagon orders are not allowed to speak or write freely while serving and dying to preserve that freedom. but i digress. Back to refuting the govts conspiracy theory: there is ample evidence that the main support colllums were severed at their base, incl at least one photo published in new american magazine [the john birchers are often quite useful in publishing uncomfortable truths], clearly showing one fireman standing in the rubble, and behind him, clearly visible, jutting out of the rubble pile, still standing, is the base of one of the main support collumns cut cleanly as if by cutting torch. prof jones tells us [when hs is allowed to speak] that thermite with sulphur added creates thermate, which will cut massive thicknesses of steel like a cutting torch, leaving exactly the same visual evidence as in the photo. so perhaps one reason for having the steel remains immediately moved under top security and shipped off to asia wasnt because our benovalent govt wanted to spare the survivors having to look at all that steel, nor was it because if it sat around and rusted it would degrade in value [one must always think of the money to be made from scrap metal] but because the steel remnants might hold embarrassing clues , such as the cut marks refered to above as well as chemical traces of sulphur, indicating thermate.. btw. thanks for getting my juices flowing this morn. have a great day.

Interesting news item to piggyback onto the above: This yeas burning man out in the Nevada desert may have a potentially very significant art project. John Parulis is currently planning the Truth Burn Art Project for Burning Man 2007, which involves creating large steel frame columns on the playa that suspend the word "Truth" and then destroying the structure with thermate.. The "Truth Burn" Project is an attempt to refocus the National gaze on a specific side of this event- the actual theoretical mode scientists and engineers have proposed for what really brought down the world trade towers and building 7. they claim that the towers were brought down by the use of explosives and the steel burning incendiary called "thermate". Traces of this substance were found at ground zero. "We don’t plan on using explosives but we do plan on using thermate. By using this controlled demolition technique to destroy this artwork, we hope to provoke a wider examination about what really happened that day in September. We also want to demonstrate the speed and destructiveness of the incendiary, in a test use of the method to bolster the controlled demolition theory of a growing body of scientists, engineers and other professionals". John is currently looking for volunteers, funding and support for the project. My comment: the burning man event is held on land leased from BLM, the fed bureau of land management. The burning man organizers and blm fight every year over the lease, but up till now the fight has always focused on the issues of how much freedom law enforcement will have to hassle the participants over silly issues like cannibis smoking, or how much money blm can extort for the right to hold the event on their acres of sand. It will be highly interesting to see if blm now hassles them over the content of a piece of artwork that is a highly political statement but in no way pornographic. would the gubment censor art?  nah, we live in the land of freedom of expression.  i predict that blm will stop this on the grounds of ah, er, um, it might be dangerous.  the reality of course is that camping in the black rock desert for a week [never mind the drugs possibly ingested, or the effects of having to observe so many naked bodies] is far more dangerous than watching at a safe distance as a  steel structure collapses in a non explosive controlled demolition. Stay tuned. This one could become highly entertaining. If of course corporate media bothers to report on it.

Next item: Pres bush is threatening to veto a bill which would allow the importation of cheaper prescription drugs from a foreign country over fears the drugs may not meet our standards and could be "unsafe". . Incidentally the country we would be importing from is not exactly a 3^rd world country with no standards. Its Canada. Cynics might think that the assumed danger would not be to our citizens but to the massive drug company profits that fund bushes political party. my comment. Duh.

Next item: if you wish to become truly disgusted, calculate how much of your tax dollars are being wasted as the bush crowd, pretenders to the imaginary throne of American nobility, host the visiting queen of England. On Monday, as I set my vcr to record the nba playoffs, I caught Abc’s good morning America, which had at least ½ hour devoted to interviewing laura bush on the gown you are paying for as well as other breathless details. The interviewer was a woman with that coffee colored skin that is not Caucasian but only faintly black. Id call it acceptable for tv black. My god, as I type this there is another feature on how one should dress for an audience with the queen, and claiming the absurdity that "Americans are riveted by this event". Right. Everyone I know talks of nothing but the queens visit. This is the classic example of tv deciding what is news and instructing us on what should be important to us. What planet do these people live on? Gag me with a spoon.

According to moveon.org, stone has just produced a tv ad featuring an iraq war vet pleading for the audience to support our troops by bringing them home.

Next tiem: Ready for Some Great News? Although the FDA denied the request to extend the comment, failed to update its site or its comment tally, extended the comment period and then resinded the extension (!), our collective voice won us a huge victory in Congress today. Because we rallied behind our health freedom and access to natural health products, every member of the Senate voting today heard us loud and clear and acted -- without a single dissenting voice -- to protect our health freedom! The vote was 94-0.

Next item: im announcing a contest. Why do we still have pennies? If you can justify why we still use these silly coins, send in your reasons to chamba@kvmr.org the panel of judges will be kept secret in the interest of national security. winning entries will be read on air. Seriously. Why do we still have pennies?
