​Ridiculous. If I may inject an analogous note of controversy, ​there are
those who say that the reason no major plane parts were found at
Shanksville (like 9000lb engines) was that they "vaporized". Not
disintegrated, mind you, but vaporized. You can read all about it in
Popular Mechanics. ("Evaporate" = "vaporize".)
