Anyone live in the Bay Area? Our commutes are going to suck for the forseeble future. This morning at 3:45 a tanker truck exploded after navigating a turn too tightly. The heat from the flames 'caused the steel and cement to buckle underneath and collapsed.
i think the arguement behinde the 9/11 conspiracy bullsh!t was that the steel used in towers such as the world trade center couldent be melted by jet fuel.
paintballer :(
Freeways are built using rebars and concrete. Rebars are a lot thinner then the i-beams used in building a skyscraper. But nonetheless everything has a melting point so whoever said that crap was lying out of their asses.

that part is always congested no matter what

yea now its going to be Fuked...I hate that interchage.
I shoot Table Gypsies on sight!
Fuck that stretch of road, its so busy. I usually just take the bart into the city :D
now they get to use the $4-5 toll fee on it!

Dude no kidding. I remember back at the beginning of the Winter Quarter some 4yr old girl got shot up in a drive by near campus.
tweakers make the world funny lol... but as for the steel, it doesn't have to melt just be heated to the point where its malable and can be bent by enough force. Add force to sufficiently heated steel and it'll bend. With a skyscraper once a support beam starts to bend more things get unstable and more force is applied to the beam as the building starts to collapse and hopefully implode on itself if it was designed well.
+1 All you need to do get steel to only have 60% of its loadbearing capacity is to heat it to about 50% of its melting point.
