You are unfamiliar with satellite photos of hotspots?
I'm familiar with them, they show temperature too low to melt steel.

You do not accept the statements of Tully and Loizeaux? You do not accept the statements of men on the scene?
I accept Tully saw molten metal, though it appears that Loizeaux didn't, he simply accepted the word of others for it. However, unless someone can explain how anyone, however qualified, can tell what metal it was just by eye, I cannot accept the identification of it as steel.

You do not accept the USGS Particle Atlas of WTC Dust from 2005?
I accept the presence of iron microspheres, but they are a common result of metal working and do not indicate molten steel.

Sounds to me like chronic denial symptoms, or perhaps just a lack of knowledge? Either way, that is a personal problem.
I am not denying evidence of molten steel, as you have not produced any.
Sounds to me like you want the evidence to mean molten steel, whether it does or not. Your personal problem is confirmation bias.
