Email from Kevin Ryan, 8/4/08
Dear truth seekers,
My co-authors and I have a new article published today, in the Springer journal
The Environmentalist. It is called “Environmental anomalies at
the WTC: evidence for energetic materials.”
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10669-008-9182-4
Many thanks to the Bloomington 9/11 Working Group for help with the related
FOIA, and to attorney Mick Harrison for his generosity in making the article
freely available to all, instead of by subscription only.
In case you missed our last mainstream journal article, ‘Fourteen points of
agreement with official government reports…’, here is a link to that paper.

And if you are one of those who is not wholly dependent on the mainstream,
please see the many fine peer-reviewed articles at The Journal of 9/11 Studies
(www.journalof911studies.com).
My best to all,
Kevin Ryan
Environmental anomalies at the World Trade Center: evidence for energetic

Abstract: Investigators monitoring air quality at the World
Trade Center, after the September 11th attacks, found extremely high levels
of volatile organic chemicals as well as unusual species that had never been
seen before in structure fires. Data collected by the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency indicate striking spikes in levels of benzene, styrene, and several other
products of combustion. These spikes occurred on specific dates in October and
November 2001, and February 2002. Additionally, data collected by researchers
at the University of California Davis showed similar spikes in the levels of
sulfur and silicon compounds, and certain metals, in aerosols. To better explain
these data, as well as the unusual detection of 1,3-diphenylpropane, the presence
of energetic nanocomposites in the pile at Ground Zero is hypothesized.
