I've always had arguments with "Truthers" about this very thing. A plane is basically a giant aluminum can. People crush those against their foreheads. How hard is it to believe that smashing a plane against one of the most hardened buildings in existence, at very high speeds, won't leave much of anything behind?

It was low quality/framerate CCTV pointed not exactly at the crash right? Because the cameras were probably only there to spot trespassers so probably didn't get updated to modern tech all that often.
The video I linked was the best HD slow-mo video they had at the time. Because it was a science experiment they spent a ton of money on and the visual was part of the result they wanted.
All seems totally reasonable to me.

If memory serves, didn't cam #2 catch the back end in a few frames and thus the continuation of the conspiracy theory?

yeah there is missing footage or its just shitty 2001 tech because government is always low tech. either way, those people on the plane are either dead in that crash or chilling on a desert island eating mangosteens.

Outside of perhaps some sort of gotcha like saying we have a measurable electric field or whatever, auras in the sense that I assume you mean are crazy witchcraft. And since witchcraft is all bullshit too, well, there you go.Are people's Auras real or just crazy witchcraftVoid ?
But I await your counter eagerly, as I have 3 more hours to waste until I can go home!

That sucks, just leave. What are they gonna do, fire you?
I'm bored too, work is slow today.
Yes, more specifically light, is being generated by our neurons to heal other neurons in our body but that is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Those neurons are operating in a quantum state of flux which is entangled into an energy field that, for lack of a better word, links consciousnesses together like a hidden internet.

I could leave at any time and nothing would happen, but then I'd want to keep doing it. Also, let's be honest, if I go home right now the only thing I'm going to do is jerk off or take a nap. Or both. In either order.
I'mma need a little more about these quantum entangled lights before I convert to the dark side. Right now I'm just not feeling it.

A nap fap, nice lol.
I'll post one of the research papers on it when I'm off work. Thought the topic was just woo enough and just science enough that you'd give it a read to throw some counter arguments or observations.

i think calling all witchcraft bullshit is a bit too much. if you mean bitches riding around on brooms and casting hexes on people, yeah thats more than likely horseshit. however, there are aspects like potions and ointments that may have merit to them. alchemy is very much not bullshit and that also fits into the witchcraft category.

You mean "folk medicine" not "witchcraft" and "proto chemistry" not "alchemy".
I know they are the same thing but you have to split out the real from the imaginary.
Like most of the alchemists were just conmen or writing fiction. Claiming that angels are talking to you through a seeing stone is not the same thing as experimenting with metals/bases/acids.

yes, but it all fits under the tent of "witchcraft". even astronomy at one point was considered witchcraft.

No it wasn't. Astronomy is 5000+ years old and ubiquitous across all human cultures.
Are you thinking of Astrology or something?

astrology is still considered chick magic, i mean astronomy. as in moon the sun and stars considered some mystical idea.

That's priests and philosophers, not mangy old women living in a shack.
