I don't need to insult anyone's intelligence, it generally speaks for itself.

If I'm a guy with a torch trying to improve the safety of the area and I want to make the structurally unsound beam fall in a specific controlled direction, that's exactly how I would cut it. Perhaps other beams were in a position to be lifted instead and so a horizontal cut made more sense.

I guarantee if that beam had been cut dozens of stories up and then fallen into that position, there wouldn't be any slag stuck to it. That stuff can be knocked off with a hammer (I have some experience in this area), it would never survive forces that can pulverize concrete, and it certainly wouldn't be clean, it would be covered with dust and rust like everything else even if it had survived the fall.

No, that beam was cut where it stood. Using this photo as evidence of 9/11 malfeasance does nothing but undermine the position because the visual is easily understood by anybody who knows what they're talking about. Critical thinking and some real-world understanding are what I'm arguing for here.
