Your equation is wrong!
I get 9.201 using some more precise numbers.

"And these were bodies that were FREE FALLING (meaning of course ZERO resistance)."

No, my calculations show they would've reached near terminal velocity in about 6 seconds.
9.81 m/s^2 * 6s = 58.86 m/s

Terminal velocity of a human is about 56 m/s.

The point being that you are assuming too much - you only offer conjecture, not proof.

"And THIS would have ONLY been possible if the floors were destroyed by high-powered explosives!"

Says who? The only equations you provide are those w/out resistance. You do not provide equations that account for the resistance. You only insist that you are correct.

And even assuming there were explosives in the towers, you immediatly blame the government without rhyme or reason!

But from what I hear - the explosives (assuming there are explosives, that is) may have been planted by the original designers in case of demolition, not the government. Which makes a lot more sense, since nobody noticed the explosives! It would also explain why the building would've collapsed so nicely much better than your "government conspiracy" theory!
