The fire at the top of the building made the steel at the bottom hot and malleable?
I don't think steel is THAT conductive. Besides, why didn't the tower just fall over instead of in on itself.
FYI, I never claimed it was an inside/outside job so shove that tin foil hat up your ass.

A 767 can hold well over 20,000 gallons of fuel. If you have 20,000 gallons of fuel on top of a skyscraper what would you expect gravity to cause that fuel to do?
And yes, heat will spread through metal like that fairly quickly. You don't think it would take days for the heat to spread pretty thoroughly through the structure, do you?
As far as why it fell down and not sideways, that's pretty simple. Gravity pulls down, not sideways. Why would you expect the building to to topple over sideways when gravity is pulling the weakened structure down, not sideways?
