The Hard Evidence Tour Down Under hit a high note on Saturday afternoon at the Te Papa Museum in Wellington, when over 650 turned up to hear Richard Gage, AIA, the spokesperson for Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, (AE911Truth), talk about what really happened to World Trade Centre (WTC) 1, 2, and 7 on 9/11. It was the largest crowd the architect and founder of AE911Truth has ever spoken to since he began spreading the truth – what he calls the Architecture of Destruction, about the evidence of 9/11, and revealing the buildings were brought down by controlled demolition, not by jet fuel and fires.

Famed Radio personality, Kim Hill, interviews Richard Gage, AIA on New Zealand Public Radio in Wellington for a half hour – in what turns out to be quite a wrestling match that resulted in a flood of emails to the station critical of Hill's treatment of her guest.

You can download the interview from the Podcasts section of our Downloads page.

The Hard Evidence: Tour Down Under 2009 Conference starts tomorrow (or "today" if you are in Australia).

Richard Gage, AIA has begun his Tour Blog entries, so check back often for those. We also have images, news and press coming in almost daily for each city as the tour progresses. Use the menu on the left column of the tour page to jump to each city section. As the dates pass, the city menu items will dim to show you what city is current or upcoming.

Thank you to all of the many people who have worked so hard to make this tour happen, both at AE911Truth (our dedicated and hard-working volunteers), and the many people who have helped arrange presentations in the cities, sponsored them, and done the voluminous local work to promote, organize and hold the events. And the attendees, as well.

You asked for them and so we have assembled them. And you can order them in ourOnline Store – attractive color hardcopies of several of the most important 9/11 research papers to date:
