Frank Greening is a scientist interested in why the WTC collapsed and has written several papers of the subject, some of them in response to Steven Jones' arguments. For example, you can find his Energy Transfer in the WTC Collapse here:
http://www.911myths.com/WTCREPORT.pdfHe concludes that the WTC was destroyed by the impact damage and fire.
He has also written an assessment of the NIST Report, which you can find here:
http://www.911myths.com/NISTREPORT.pdfAlthough he is a supporter of the impact and fire theory, he finds some shortcomings in NIST's methodology. After discussing NIST's take on the angles at which the towers were tilting prior to collapse initiation and the vertical displacement this caused, he concludes (p. 13):
"Clearly, if NIST's computer model is essentially correct, the Twin Towers collapsed (or fell over!) at ridiculously small downward displacements and tilt angles, and were inherently unstable as soon as they were struck by aircraft. This raises serious questions about the design and construction of the Twin Towers. However, a more reasonable assessment would be that NIST's computer model is highly inaccurate, and therefore of no value in explaining the demise of the Twin Towers."
Obviously, Greening is only one man, but it will be interesting to see how the debate goes.
btw, thanks to the nice people at 911myths for debunking the NIST report for us.
