Carbon - naturally occuring element
Silicon - naturally occuring element
etc etc.
Now I am not saying don't ask questions, but sometimes people look too deeply for the answer when its laying in front of them.
Ever hear of a shistovite (sp)? Its a grain shaped material that is shock heated quartz. Usually only found in nuke craters.
The point here is you had high temps, massive pressures, loads of a large variety of "ingredient" materials (concrete, steel, fiberglass,etc other metals and suchvarious ). Chemistry and physics often go hand in hand, so it is NOT suprising that under the circumstances there could be "trace" concoctions created. Diamonds are superheated and compressed coal - its not unreasonable to assume that the vast pressures and temps involved in building collapses such as this would cause all kinds of "unexplained" reactions. After all - when building are brought down normally - everyone expects that there could be "traces" of explosive elements found. But who is to say all the various things used to build buildings dont contribute to those elements?
I can personally think of a number of "potentially explosive" elements used in building. The key here is that they are elements of a potential explosive - not an explosive waiting to go off. In their molecular form, with the right combinations - BOOM. Our understand of the molecular processes that occur when something that size comes down is so incomplete its not even funny.
The website you pointed to has repeatedly claimed that the US Government was responsible for 9/11. Instead of looking into other possibilities, they find "elements" and traces of things that support their view (at first glance) and then run with it. Thats not science, thats a political agenda.
I am not knocking asking questions, but I have issues with those (not you OP) that pick and choose the facts they present to the public to create a sentiment for political purposes.
BTW - who had the "forethought" to take a SOIL sample 10 MINUTES after the North Tower went down? What human would say "Oh god - there musta been 2000 people in there - I better take a soil sample instead of going and trying to help out!"? That right there shows that they are NOT being entirely forthright.
