Why the **** would you assume he didn't know?
His comment implies no such thing."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Asher FAIL! Reread the previous two posts until you understand them or let KH comment because I'm right and you're not.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

We can find out if this is true simply by asking KH what floor he works on (or rather which floor he was on when the EQ hit). Or rather that would help though we'd need to know the wave frequency and amplitude as well as the magnitude of the quake where he was as well as how much the tower swayed during the quake (which could be determined based on design specs). A great place to start is which floor in the GS building he was at the time though. In any event you're out of your depth here.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

Doesn't everyone know the higher floors sway more?
I'm saying you're stating something ****ing obvious to someone with a PhD in physics and acting like it's insightful."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
