how did Building 7 collapse?

The same way buildings 1 and 2 collapsed. Straight down, into their basements. Buildings always collapse like this, which is why Demolition Inc. and similar companies don't exist, and certainly don't make big money forcing buildings to do this by the application of math and thermite cutter charges.

Oh, and thermite cutters don't exist either. Don't bother Google-ing it. The patents you find for such devices at the USPO are just more tin-foil-hattery. The fact that Professor Steven E. Jones examined debris samples collected from the WTC site, and found evidence of thermate (a type of thermite) means nothing, because thermite cutters don't exist, and therefore couldn't be used to demolish a building.

Thermate doesn't exist either.

And Steven E. Jones had an agenda... which included losing tenure and getting fired.

I RTFA, and I didn't like the (lack of) explanation.

As usual, QM's explanation is saying "uncertainty" very slowly and profoundly. (Slowly for the dim-witted among us, profoundly for the benefit of the Nobel selection committee).

Seriously. TFA states that the measurements are not literal, and correlation between measurements happens after the fact.

So: quantum entanglement gives you a way to defeat uncertainty, by letting you measure the mutually exclusive information from a set of correlated particles... Except no it doesn't, because you can't be certain of your measurements.

And: clever experiments like this let you send information back in time.... Except that no it doesn't, because the universe still has plausible deniability (i.e. you only thought you sent information back in time, but it turns out, the universe was going to do what it did anyway and/or your measurements of what happened are uncertain).

Congratulations, QM fags. You've found another brilliant way to show how fucking retarded you are.

Wireless.... upgraded to have TWO buttons now... and... a scroll wheel.

WOW!!! Nothing like that over in PC land. What a fucking tool.

Over here in PC land, we have mice that fit naturally into the shape of your hand. Lemme know when the ghost of Steve Jobs decides ergonomics is important.

The problem isn't people denying global warming. Most people have a poor enough understanding of weather patters to grumble something about global warming after a single hotter than average day.

The problem is proving we're the cause. No one is buying it, and since they don't have any actual proof of anthropogenic global warning, they use scary pictures of polar bears on tiny ice patches to convince the public of something they already believe in (non-anthropogenic global warming).

So, are we still on track for the oceans to rise 10 feet by 2050, like they told us kids back in the 80's? SCIENCE!

Google "china syndrome". A meltdown, in an absolute worst case, can produce enough heat to burn through the containment vessel, the building's foundation, solid rock, etc., all the way down to the water table. As soon as it hits water, heat boils water into steam very rapidly, gigantic steam explosion launches whats left of the reactor building a few miles into the air, and then we all die.
