    At least it’s not an A body. Lol.

    So much for fresh air intake.

    I grew up a long time ago...now I'm growing out.

    Worst enemy?

    That would be great, but when I sold my house the shop went with it. Did it all in the car. Thermostat, water pump, belt, tensioner, idler, chains and sprockets, rear shocks, O2's, upper and lower hoses, battery, blah, blah, blah. I don't want to do it again. My only concern is when I get it...

    Maybe this will wake everyone up about isolating.

    When there are thousands of deaths in any given week more than during the same week for many years past it doesn't take a genius to guess where all the extras are coming from. My guess is it will reach a point where they will stop counting.

    Maybe this will wake everyone up about isolating.

    If everyone on the planet gets it, at 5 per cent, times about 7.7 billion people, that is 350,000,000 dead. The outcome of cases is recovery/discharge or death. That ratio in the US is 71/29.Best It's been in weeks. Worldwide it is 82/18. Stay healthy. If 5% is correct, we're gonna need help...

    I've got in plenty of trouble taking things literally. Ain't gonna stop me though.

    Nuclear versus coal

    illnesses near nuc generators are well documented. Many have been around for a long time. They must be vented, to outside air. I just tried to make a correlation between what may happen at a reactor and what may happen to an engine...I just picked 440. The point is someone may have installed...

    Nuclear versus coal

    Yea sorry, I've really said enough and I'm getting sloppy. I haven't had much of anything to do with that industry for a long time. Too much bs. My physics training happened at Mare Island. Things is just my way of saying elements. Stuff is just different isotopes, waste, just junk in general...

    Nuclear versus coal

    See what I mean. While we are thinking may leak, the atoms do not care. They will leak whether we think they may or not. Do you fire up a new 440 because you think somebody MAY have installed the camshaft correctly?

    Nuclear versus coal

    Look up how many sick people live near reactors. Potassium 40 does not fission at 9000 degrees...if it did they would build reactors out of bananas. To put it into perspective check out the temperature of the sun...then compare that to the temperature of a thermo nuclear weapon at detonation.

    Nuclear versus coal

    Nope. I can't agree. We are talking about things that don't exist on the sun. And while it can take years for us to get sick, everybody forgets there are other life forms that cannot survive the exposure levels we can. You do not eat sunlight in its raw form. There are no safe levels. One active...

    Nuclear versus coal

    Yup. Saltwater hasn't breached the cores yet. I'm getting too deep into this. Words like luck, if ,they, maybe, think, are all just scary. Suffice it to say how much luck we have, or what we think, are not variables that any sort of fission cares about. I forgot one thing, many don't know. All...

    Nuclear versus coal

    Yup, it is fairly safe. You can carry the stuff around. We enrich it. Still fairely safe. We make fuel cells, still fairly safe.Then we create a reaction and form hundreds of elements that are not safe with 15 million year half lives. I think France may be getting rid of their reactors. Seems...

    Nuclear versus coal

    Some have sank. Including Russian ones, and the radiation doesn't care where we live. I think they managed to retrieve a Russian one before the salt water breached the core. I doubt they can decommission the reactor on a sub so they are either stacking up somewhere, being scuttled, or maybe...

    Please fill it up. That'll be $2,000,000 ma'am.

    Nuclear versus coal

    They almost all do. They must be secret a though. I can't think of a single safeguard that can withstand 9000 degree temps. Radiation weakens everything including concrete and steel. How can we safeguard against that?

    Nuclear versus coal

    People tend to look at reactor fuel as a chemical reaction. Most things are, and we can control them, much like what occurs in a combustion chamber. Reactors of any type of fuel operate on an atomic level. Once the reaction begins it can never be stopped, except by time. Lots of it. No one...

    Nuclear versus coal

    Yes, I'm just too literate sometimes. As a former nuc I told them they were insane about the time I started to comprehend E=mc2. Then I quit. i prefer cars over reactors.

    No such thing. That stuff will be around to the ends of the earth.

    Nuclear versus coal

    I think they just had a problem. And like all the rest they said oh wait no. That reactor near Toronto is waaay past it's lifespan. All that needs to happen to it is a loss of power. That could happen at any moment. A tornado would do it.

    It's your dime.

    This is what the Pontiac guys had. If you did it just right you could slide the bottles right out. No nickel. I'm pretty sure they new I was doing it. LOL

    It's your dime.

    Yea what the heck. And a Coke in the maintenance area of the Pontiac dealer I lived next door to was only five cents, and came with a showroom full of GTO's.

    It's your dime.

    I am sitting watching Youtube, binging on "r/IDontWorkHereLady", when a call comes in. I can see it is my youngest daughter. I answer, "It's your dime.". She said, " What did you say? ". "I said it's your dime.". She says, "What does that mean?" Then it dawns on me. I had my first Motorola...
