the witnesses described molten pools at the WTC as being bright orange in color, like lava or molten steel would be.
the other problem with the aluminum theory is, when you pour water onto it molten aluminum will cool and solidify within minutes. but that will not not happen with molten steel. even as firefighters were pouring tons of water onto the debris pile every day,the molten pools in the collapsed towers did not solidify and remained molten for weeks on end, indicating molten pools of steel.
