The story I saw on the History Channel said that engineers figured that the stand pipes were severed and no water could get to where the fires were, also that the heat weakened the steel (the cottage-cheese insulation on the beams only slows down the heat) and lastly the design weakness of the 'hook' method of attaching the floors to the load bearing outer skin of the buildings.
Ever burned your hand on a kerosene lantern or a blow torch? Yes, there was quite enough heat generated by 'only jet fuel' to weaken the steel enough for gravity to do the rest.
What 9-11 proved is that brains are not restricted to places where the restrooms are clean and everybody has a car and TV.
