Dig Yields Surprising Find at Ground Zero
Why where they in such a hurry to get Ground Zero Cleaned up ? Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmm.

NEW YORK (Jan. 31) - Large steel columns from the fallen twin towers have been found beneath a service road being excavated at ground zero in the search for long-buried Sept. 11 remains, officials said Wednesday.

The surprising discovery of World Trade Center steel in the past week raises more questions about what was left at ground zero in the cleanup after the 2001 attacks and how the service road was created in the first place.

<snip>
The person with knowledge of the discovery told the AP that three connected steel columns that once formed the facade of the trade center were also found below the road. Another column was found on the other end of the trade center site, where the Port Authority is building a retaining wall for three planned office towers, the person said. Unlike the stacked columns, this steel appeared to be burned at one end.

<snip>
"They built it so that they could get their project done ahead over schedule and under budget, which was always their first priority," Horning said. "It's repulsive."

3. MY GOD! A contractor put steel from the --facade-- beneath a road,
instead of hauling it to the dump where it would be shipped to Taiwan!

What a find! What a revealing clue! The Conspiracy unravels!

Or maybe not.
