    "36,000 gallons of diesel fuel sat just below ground level in the loading dock near the southwest corner of the building.

    The remaining 6000 gallons was a couple of stories above."

    lol here we go again.....Yes the main tanks where below the ground floor however in a blackout the pumps start pumping fuel into the generators right up to the 9th floors where some of the generators where housed....We are still talking 35000 odd gallons of fuel here you know, compromise that and thats a hell of a lot fuel. Whats its just going to magically sit there is it? lol

    "So how did it leak across and down when its already below ground level....lol"

    It wasn't! The rest of the fuel(around 7000 gallons) was in numerous staging tanks right up to the 9th floor. Lets not forget about the fuel in the lines as well. To put it in perspective a tanker carries 7000 gallons. So we got a tanker's capacity of fuel in tower 7 right up to the 9th floor. Whats that going to magically sit there as well lol. Its liquid mate!

    Hey Warnie look. Another official report below from NIST....and they said no reports were ever done on why tower 7 collapsed lol
