A few high-profile members of the self-styled "9/11 truth movement" have recently floated the theory that an exotic beam weapon was used to "vaporize" the WTC towers. This paper refutes that theory by showing the impossible amounts of energy that would have been required, and the collateral effects that were not observed.

This hypothetical beam weapon has produced a disruptive effect -- on the truth seekers. It has also provided the establishment media with another "strawman" to discredit serious criticism of the official story about what really happened, and why.
