I checked out the site, "911Myths.com", and I was completely unimpressed. It is certainly true that some conspiracy theorists have come up with some crazy ideas, but this attempt to debunk the craziness is just as crazy. They use fuzzy attempts at logic, non-sequiturs, and other bogus attempts to prove things wrong.
Just for one example: the guy in the video who was supposedly using logic asked where the sulfur was, because Thermite "is 2% sulfur." No, it is not. A specific commercial compound called "Thermate TH3" has sulfur in it, but that is used as an incendiary, not for cutting metal. Regular thermite has no sulfur. Also, he asked about barium oxide. Barium is sometimes used in thermite compounds to increase the temperature of the reaction, but it is NOT a requirement, and most thermite does not use it.
"911Myths.com" is a waste of your time. Do not bother. Yes, they try to debunk some of the garbage that some people have been spewing, but they just confuse the issue by spewing more garbage of their own.
