hurled him to the ground. Morelli then exited that building and went inside the South Tower’s subbasement,
where once again he felt the same type of underground explosions.
“Chief Engineer magazine also ran an article in their We Will Never Forget commemorative issue
on those who were eyewitnesses to the 9-11 terrorist attacks. One of these men was Stationary
Engineer Mike Pecoraro, who worked in the WTCs second sub-basement. After hearing some
loud explosions, they ventured to a machine shop and found, much to their amazement, “There
was nothing there but rubble. We’re talking about a 50-ton hydraulic press – gone!” Pecoraro then
went on to say that “he was convinced a bomb had gone off in the building.” [Bombs in the World

2. The reference to the possibility of planting explosives in the building should draw
attention to an internet posting by an IT worker from that Tower:
"On the weekend of 9/8, 9/9 there was a 'power down' condition in WTC tower 2, the south tower.
This power down condition meant there was no electrical supply for approx 36 hrs from floor 50
up. I am aware of this situation since I work in IT and had to work with many others that weekend
to ensure that all systems were cleanly shutdown beforehand ... and then brought back up
afterwards. The reason given by the WTC for the power down was that cabling in the tower was
being upgraded.
"Of course without power there were no security cameras, no security locks on doors and many,
many 'engineers' coming in and out of the tower. I was at home on the morning of 9/11 on the
shore of Jersey City, right opposite the Towers, and watching events unfold I was convinced
immediately that something was happening related to the weekend work."[San Francisco

In a similar vein, other suspicious work on the WTC was reported after the fact:
“A photo ID pass for Sept. 5 found on one of the men charged with fraudulently obtaining a
Tennessee driver's license from a Memphis woman gave him access to the six underground levels
of the One World Center building. But which tenant hired Sakher 'Rocky' Hammad, 24, to work
on its sprinklers is lost, said Port Authority of New York and New Jersey spokesman Alan Hicks
on Friday. Hammad told federal authorities that he was working on the sprinklers six days before
the twin towers were brought down by terrorists, court testimony revealed this week.
But Hicks said the Port Authority, which owned the building, did its own sprinkler work, and that
any other work involving sprinklers would have been arranged by an individual tenant. "We don't
know (which one) because all our records were destroyed in the World Trade Center, as were
some of the people who know that," Hicks said. [License Suspect Had WTC Repair Pass, But Port
Authority Did its Own Work, GoMemphis, Bartholomew Sullivan, February 16, 2002]
The September 5th date is important, because that is the day after the WTC bombsniffing
dogs were removed from service, without reason.
"The World Trade Center was destroyed just days after a heightened security alert was lifted at the
landmark 110-story towers, security personnel said yesterday. Daria Coard, 37, a guard at Tower One,
said the security detail had been working 12-hour shifts for the past two weeks because of numerous
phone threats. But on Thursday, (Sept 4) bomb-sniffing dogs were abruptly removed. "Today was the
first day there was not the extra security," Coard said. "We were protecting below. We had the ground
covered. We didn't figure they would do it with planes. There is no way anyone could have stopped
that.” [Heightened Security Alert Had Just Been Lifted, Curtis L. Taylor and Sean Gardiner,
September 12, 2001]
Also reported in the world of coincidences, the woman (Katherine Smith) who provided
the false ID to Rocky Hammad was killed in a bizarre auto accident the day before she
