abstract="The author discusses his theory that restrictions on the use of asbestos and the lack of asbestos led to the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings.   While there may be risks associated with certain forms of asbestos, these are far less than the risks of many substances that are still widely used or ingested despite lack of any compensatory benefits, such as cigarettes.  Asbestos should not have been banned from the WTC, and should not be banned from other buildings or products either. Currently, routine fires result in building collapse, and asbestos would greatly reduce the number of deaths.  Aside from the enormous economic losses, Americans, particularly New Yorkers, have paid a heavy price in lost lives for the unjustified pseudoscientific demands to ban asbestos, especially on September 11.  We should never again permit such bad science to interfere with safety and to increase tragedy.",
