Damn, I'm usually a humorless person when it comes to comments trying to be funny at HN but this, this was good.



The joke is on us for accepting a story that could be verified by computer simulation, but for which a computer simulation was never written.

Also the report written on it only needed to prove that the fuel leaked from the tank. From that point on it was assumed on the report that the destruction we saw was caused simply from the fuel.

That is a hypothesis that is amenable to computer simulation. My sense of humor finds it funny no one has simulated what happened on a computer (well, those who tried have reached different conclusions, which is actually hilarious).
