Please note: the following is an opinion only. Please hide your children.

My take on #7 is that is was a casualty of location. It got hit by debris from one or both towers - but the significant damage likely came due to subsequent structural failure below ground level. You had over a million plus TONS of material falling literally right across the street from it. I dont know about you, but I think there may have been just a little bit of a "thud"......
causing a crater effect that took out the front of #7.

Have you ever seen preparation for a building demo. They work for MONTH's prepping the structure, and laying in charge lines. The sequence of explosions would have been visible in almost ANY of the footage of the buildings coming down. You would have seen a series of them going up the structure, then back down. There were what, 40,000 people that worked in those buildings? And not a one mentioned anything about any "strange" work being done? Pre-Cutting beams in an office environment? Everyone within 3 floors would have known about that.

Finnster eluded to the keep quite aspect. Something of this magnitude could never have been kept secret. If there is one thing I have learned about people, is they cant keep their mouths shut. Only in the movies can something like this occur. Let's see - I'm a criminal mastermind, and I need some minions to execute my plan. I call all my friends, and they call all of theirs....wait, only 40% like it, 50% dont care one way or another, but that pesky 10% that think I am morally the equivelent of Lincpimp's great step dad are a real problem....so to keep with the Hollywood theme, I have to execute them ALL and make it appear natural...wow. Now after the fact, NONE of my loyal minions see that they can make bucko big bucks by telling the real story? Nobody got their toes stepped on, and wants some revenge?
Just too grand of a scale to have been a feasible theory.
