Never too late but the people POTUS OJ is enriching are very glad they put him in place. He's doing exactly what he was elected to do.😎

The point is that there is no lack of knowledge as it relates to physics. From structural engineering to mitigating disaster, there's no shortage of people who know how to build solid structures. New York City is filled with buildings. Same goes for other places all over the planet showing visual proof of engineering genius. Elastomeric bearings are being added to buildings in earthquake prone cities. Physics is child's play to a lot of folks. Right. The engineers knew better between shaving the footings on the south building to failing to reinforce the foundation at signs of water damage. Although lawsuits totalled more than $1 billion dollars...follow the money to understand initiall motivation. It wasnt bad engineering more than poor decision-making. Beyond physics...follow the money. Again, the experts who really know what happened are not at liberty to discuss such things. No different from US assassinations & other events.😎

I haven't looked in this thread in months. Now the moron has gone over the top stupid with this Iran crap. It is arguably too late for the military to take his dumb ass out. If only they had done it in January!

The issue is physics Not disaster. Just because the words 'building' and 'collapse' are there does not mean that they are similar. As far as I can tell the Florida collapse was a combination of flawed design and bad maintenance. Water undermined the foundation. With proper design and bad maintenance it would not have happened. With good maintenance it would not have happened even with the design flaw. Mass falling on and destroying the structure below had nothing to do with it. The WTC destruction was not about water and the top came down onto the lower portion which had to get stronger and heavier all of the way down. Which raises the question of why lots of "experts" don't demand the data though some experts have a problem.

Aways great to hear that African countries are doing for themselves instead of being used by & depending on colonizers & imperialists & opportunists.😎

No Diesel. No Limits. Uganda’s Bus Just Took Over Africa 😳

No surprise...POTUS OJ has extended the cease-fire in Iran. POTUS Oj is giving the fractured Iranian leadership time to come up with a reasonable proposal.🙄 IOW, these people are kicking a can down the street. Follow the money.😎

Time flies. Prince was truly a musical genius. Thankfully, he left us with a treasure trove of music both composed & inspired by him.😎

J.Edgar Hoover genuinely feared the Black Panthers. Really believed they were a serious threat.

My daughters were big Prince fans and that's how I came to be a fan. I attended at least 4 concerts with them including his Purple Rain tour one in Chicagoland where he broke all records selling out 8 nights at a large venue. I remember my youngest daughter camping out all night with hundreds of fans to be first in line to get tickets. I actually liked old vintage Prince better than his later work. Also liked "The Time" who were his opening act when he first started out.

I also out danced him one night in Nell's. It was around the time Graffiti Bridge was released. He does just disappear.

James Baldwin had the largest file.

I have seen him perform one concert and one after concert show.

Hard to believe. Time really does fly! Last year I visited his home in MN. Calling it a mansion would be an understatement. I did not get to see the entire place -- that is like a $400 tour. He is one of the few musicians I saw more perform than once (twice). I saw the Ohio players twice... I think that is it. Anyhow he was doing a residency on Vegas the last time I saw him 2007 he walked by everyone's table and I patted him on the back :-) If he was alive today he would still be only be in his 60's! Charley Murphy (another one gone too soon) tells a hilarious story about ballin' with Prince.

💜😟💜

It is well-known that J. Edgar Hoover's FBI surveilled & undermined Black progress in every imaginable way. Of course, roses grew up through concrete.😎

The planet will be fine. Humans will be extinct long before the Earth becomes devoid of sunlight & too cold for habitation. This system has benefitted the USA for a century & counting. Despite our knowledge of construction & engineering, there has been no shortage of disasters. Back in 2021, the Champlain Tower South condo collapsed. The subsequent investigation revealed structural flaws & issues with regard to how it was built & the elements that contributed to it. Every generation believes the future is doomed to fail. I remember those days when my long gone elders talked about the last & evil days & how the world was going to h8ll in a handbasket. That was over a half-century ago... Yet, the beat continues as it only takes a small percentage of the population to innovate &/or maintain the status quo.😎

People ask me what happened to America. I say Trump is just the symptom. At least once a week I hear about something outlandish that Trump has done. I couldn't believe it when I was told that he took Argentina's oil

The planet cannot sustain the planned obsolescence so some peculiar things will happen before the end of this century. I just watched what I regard as a very funny video about automobiles. A White woman was complaining about the idiotic cybernetic features in overpriced automobiles. She was supposed to pay a subscription for the remote start to preheat her car. 😆🤣😆 The funny thing about the Economic Power Game that people keep calling Capitalism is that the economists are technological illiterates and the system is built on hiding information. I worked for IBM and had to write my own benchmarks to find what IBM was not telling its own employees. I never even saw the word 'benchmark' in IBM documentation. The WTC problem is that middle school kids should figure out that skyscrapers must have more steel toward the bottom. So the problem is the delusional people who have not expected to be told. So all of Gen-Z is an issue. The oldest were 5 on 9/11. I read a post of one complaining about his kindergarten teacher on 9/11. So what is the story with Zoomers who can think their way out of a paper bag? This television brainwashed consumerism that people keep calling Capitalism is an issue. Some Zoomers thank me for information that they have never heard.

@umbrarchist My original question in regard to your ongoing crusade was, is it possible that you are out of touch with reality in thinking your concerns will be addressed. Your response was beside the point because it didn't address the "you being out of touch with reality" issue. I think that in a Capitalistic society your particular gripes are a waste of time. Without "planned obsolescence" there would be no industy. Admitting construction and design mistakes is not profitable. It's all about the bottom line. (Life isn't fair.) And, so it goes...

How long did humans exist without knowing about Oxygen? Have cats and dogs figured out Oxygen yet? Don't tell them!

The question is something that is so essential to human existence yet very people feel a need to know eveything about it. Maybe they enjoyed living more than being unalived. They are doing whatever it takes to survive & take care of their families & enjoy this ride called life.😎

I never saw realtime video of the construction of the pyramids and voted against Trump Three Times without ever thinking about the Epstein files. I have suggested dozens of times on BlueSky that the Air Force is guilty of "Dereliction of Duty" for not using an A-10 Warthog to add a few holes to a golf ⛳ course and relieve the country of a "Domestic Enemy". How many Executive Orders has he signed that violate the Constitution? Haven't military officers taken oaths to defend the Constitution? But then there is the really important issue which is also related to Physics. And another case of "Experts" not dealing with Relevant Data. Automobiles depreciating due to wear and tear but the data not being incorporated into the Net Domestic Product. A few weeks ago I watched a video of a Black Woman crying about having to give up her BMW because she could not make the payments. Useless variations in over priced garbage since WWII fighter planes could do 400 mph. Physics is Eternal. Consumerism will totally crash before this century is out. Physics is a B____!

@umbrarchist Is expecting experts in the field of Physics who continue to ignore or expose the twin towers enigma you describe and attach importance to, an example of YOU being out of touch with reality in thinking what you have exposed is important?? Especially since not exposing the discrepancy about what amount of steel was poured where, has not had an impact on the 20+ years since the twin towers collapse. What big difference would knowing what you know make to a population already cynical about its Government. Being deceived is nothing new, something I'm sure others have called to your attention. You are obviously out of touch in attaching great importance to this quirk you are fixated on. The reality is: it is what it is. After all these centuries, engineers are still trying to figure out the meta-physics of HOW the pyramids were built. Who ever has their priorities together enough to figure out the answer to that puzzle, could win a Pulitzer Prize! OTOH, maybe you could share the truth about the construction of the twin towers with the Trump administration. That information is on a par with the Epstein files and could prove to be yet another finger in the dyke. 😜
