OK, now this is a little weird
Apparently one of Bush's former chief economists is now claiming that the World Trade Center attacks were a "controlled demolition," i.e. the government blew them up. Admittedly, I'm not sure how well high-ranking economists are brought into the loop on military matters (or are experts in how large objects collapse) but wow, shouldn't a prominent member of the administration not fall for conspiracy theories? And shouldn't he shut up about it if he did? And why is the Washington Times reporting it?
Still, It reminds me of an incident I recall from deciding to go watch the 9/11 coverage on TV (yikes, what a mistake). I could have sworn I saw the second tower blow up in the middle while it was collapsing. I noted it at the time and someone said it was probably a gas leak, but I never saw this confirmed. I have asked around, and I seem to be the only one who remembers this. Could I really be wrong here?
Or have they gotten to you too?

No, that was all us, no controlled explosion.
