Your buddy thinks that he knows the temperatures, so maybe you should help him out?? If you are going to chime in and help your buddy out, at least address the arguments I have made rather than imaginary strawman arguments that I haven't.
I never claimed I know the temperatures involved, thats is the whole point!! lol
So exactly how are you so sure the temperatures were enough to melt steel?

So if me and you both agree that none of the sources give an accurate picture of the temperatures, maybe you can explain it to Skyeagle that we can't state the temperatures were not hot enough to melt steel, when there is evidence from multiple eyewitnesses that there was molten steel.
Of course I have...lol
Can you answer my question Stundie.
Are eye witness accounts infallible....yes or no?
Stundie, on 13 February 2013 - 08:10 PM, said:
The fact is that these people reported it at different times in different locations at GZ, so either they all hallucinated it or there was molten steel at GZ.
So it goes from one extreme to another? Hallucinations to Molten Steel?
Like I stated before, eye witness reports are not infallible, so if you prefer to take them at face value without any supporting evidence, be my guest. Seems like you are pretty damn well good at that.

I know which one is more likely, do you?? lol
Yes it could be, but it more than likely it was molten steel.
There isn't a single person who claims there was molten aluminium, yet we are suppose except evidence from people who were not at GZ, who think they know better and that everyone else was mistaken.
Of course Stundie. Nobody claimed molten aluminium, so obviously that makes it molten steel. Right.
Walk around with a picture of molten aluminium (2nd photograph I posted) and ask 10 random people what it is a picture of. I can guaruntee you that more than 70% will say molten steel.
I have already done this at work, not 1 person stated molten aluminium....do you know why Stundie?
Stundie, on 13 February 2013 - 08:10 PM, said:
Not from a photograph, but if I were to guess, the first one is aluminium but could be steel, the rest of them are all steel. If I was actually there, it probably wouldn't be to hard to work out especially as they cooled down.
So now you move goal posts Stundie? Cooled down?
What those people at GZ claimed they saw was a molten substance, which by all means is not cooled down.
Since you were not able to discern the differences of all 3 photographs. I will answer that for you.
1. Molten Glass
2. Molten Aluminium
3. Molten Steel
So apperantly occular identification of molten substances is not accurate, is that fair enough? So yes, even with an expert, tests would be needed to figure out the make up of a molten substance.
A non-expert's opinion on what that molten substance is based on visual identification is not infallible.

However, a steel girder is only made from steel, an expert witnessed it. Making your point moot really. lol
So if an expert were to look at a molten substance is he/she able to discern that it's previous form prior to melting was a girder?
I doubt that Stundie.
Unless of course, your claim is the expert saw a steel girder melt in front of his/her eyes.
Which at that point, I would love for you to cite your evidence.
