Have you ever looked at any of the photos taken within the next 24 hours? YES. Piece of cake.
The main bank vault is still standing. It was less than 900 feet from ground zero.

I see your point that large metal objects may have survived, but I don't get Malcolm's original statement at all. This one:

Nor do I. I was just showing off a factoid that I knew about.
Obviously if Mars had been totally wiped out by a gazillion nuclear bombs, NO art (natural or MANmade) would have survived.

In addition to the bank vault, the grid work of city streets is plainly visible in most photos.
The debris is staggering, but clearly consistent with a destroyed city.
Where does he come up with this stuff?

<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">One winter back in the 70s when I was working for a small construction company, he got a job to clear an overgrown tennis court on an estate on the north shore of Long Island. You could barely see the 20 foot high fence surrounding the tennis court, that's how overgrown it was.
Everyday, the boss would dig a 10 foot wide by 5 foot deep hole with the front of a bulldozer, and we would burn everything we cut down in that hole. We would really have a rip roaring fire all day long. The next day we'd look around in there and it always amazed us how there was some stuff right in the middle that looked good as new, totally untouched by the fire.
So, it's not surprising to me that <i>some </i>stuff survived and would still be visible, but it doesn't explain how there could be faces everywhere.

OK, wait. You can see the city after the blast. I just looked at a bunch of photos. So, Malcolm, was your point that <b><i>can see the city after the blast?</i></b>.
But still, that's a whole different thing than seeing artworks in the landscape after a blast.
