Skeptics, why did Popular Mechanics lie about "pull it"?

Skeptics,
Popular Mechanics claimed that every expert they consulted said that the term "pull it" was not a demolition term at all, PERIOD.

However, anyone who calls a demolition company will find out that it IS a demolition term after all. However, the term refers to bringing down a building with cables, not explosives.



I guess to you guys, lying is ok as long as it defends anything official. Gee you guys have great morals.

If I'm wrong, then you should rebuke Popular Mechanics for lying. Otherwise, you guys have no morals.

Okay, I spent a minute and a half researching the term "pull it." Once again, I have determined that you are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill in an attempt to support your position. The term "pull it" in all actuallity is NOT a term used to refer to an explosive demolition of a building. It is a term used in conventional demolition circles to attach cables to pre-weakened buildings and then using heavy machinery to "pull" down the building.
As such, I have determined that Popular Mechanics was NOT lying and that you were trying to "pull" a fast one on us. Shame on you Mr. Wu. Have you no morals?

Why are you bringing Ted Bundy into this? It's totally irrelevant. You guys are sick.

I could say that since Ted Bundy is of the human race, and so are you, that you and him are to be compared. But I'm not that low like you guys are.

You guys have no arguments so you resort to cheap shots.

Mr. Gage has NOT committed any fraud at all, period.

You guys who claim he is are committing libel and slander and that is a misdemeanor.
