   But it was the best they could do given that they had to at least give the   
   impression that the fires were the catalyst for the collapse.  But let me   
   engage you on another issue.  WTC-7.  Do you believe it was brought down by   
   controlled demolition, or by those couple fires that were within?  And if by   
   controlled demolition, how long would it have taken to rig that 47-story   
   building?
