Yeah, there were a couple of really good points in there, makes you think but you can't take all of it to be true either.
Assuming that the structural members (giant beams that make up the structure of a skyscraper) of WTC buildings were made out of steel (melting point of 800C) then the combustion temperature of kerosine (aircraft fuel) is far higher than that around 2kC actually.
I don't know if anyone remembers but i watched 9/11 live on CNN and what was really dodgy to me was the fact that when they first mentioned the destruction of plane 3 they stated that it was shot down but only minutes later when the story was revisited they said that it was taken over by the passangers and crashed. They didn't even mention the shot down bit. :S
