Was that in regards to the global warming paragraph
or the global warming .sig?  Both together?  Yes,
together, they're brilliant.


Ron?  Well now, I guess it's time for "the Usenet
dyslexia summary" or perhaps "the Usenet reading
comprehension failure stats" according to me:

RoX - 0% of the time where 'X' is a typo
Ron - only one time so far, AFAIR...
Rob - dyslexic?  25% to 33% of the time
Rod - correct.  majority of the time
XXX - zero Freudian slips so far ...

So, most people _can_ read, just not all of them ...
But, many just can't seem to get three letters correct.
:-{

It's interesting, to me, that the dyslexic "Rob" comes
up far more frequently in groups where there are more
computer programmers.  I'm left with no choice but to
wonder how dyslexia affects a dyslexic's code.  Is that
why Forth programmers don't like C?  I.e., they can't
distinquish symbolic "+=" from "=+" or maybe it's ">>"
 from "<<" ?  If your head hurts after reading that
sentence, you might be a dyslexic ...  (That last
line should be read to the lyrical rhythm of a typical
Jeff Foxworthy punchline.  You've been "Foxworthied.")
:-D

In your case, I'm not sure how to explain away
the "Ron" instead of the usual dyslexic "Rob" or
the correct "Rod" except for carelessness ... The
letter 'n' is on the opposite side of the keyboard
 from both 'b' and 'd'.  You could only type 'n' if
you were both visually and physically dyslexic.
:-P

Yes, the game is afoot.  Nevermind that the on-topic police are posting 
extremely off topic here.

Your Doctor Helen Popova is quoted as saying, "the Sun with the new 
minimum gives humanity more time or a second chance to reduce their 
industrial emissions and to prepare, when the Sun will return to normal 
activity" recognizing that even if we are headed for a solar minimum 
over a couple of decades, it is a temporary, external influence that 
does nothing to dispute the existence of AGW.

Then there is your rant about the nuclear industry which is not based in 
reality.  Mostly however, it involves creating a strawman group "greens" 
who you seem to think dominates US politics and economics.  Not much 
different from wearing foil hats to protect yourself from the mind rays 
of aliens!

Of course, nowhere do you suggest a better alternative route.  That 
would completely expose your inability to grasp the subject.

You can't "dispose" of radio-active waste. You can only move
it to somewhere where it (hopefully) won't do any ^M^M^M
much harm. :-)

What I haven't garnered from the various videos on MLSR (perhaps
I missed it) is what the expected half-life of the waste material
is.

I learned a lot from the video and would be happy discussing it, but 
this is not the right group.  I am crossposting to s.e.d and once 
replies show up there will only reply to that group.  This thread is not 
any more on topic there, but in that group anything goes.  lol

I can only imagine how much better life would be without insane enviro commies and democrat wakkos stopping thorium atomic power and stopping the end to unions and welfare school, paying people to do nothing is bad, but paying them to program kids for entitlement wow so evil.

Natrium cooled reactors may not meltdown, but the molten Natrium will become radioactive and molten Natrium is said to burn when in contact with water/humidity.

And if the state changes from molten to solid, the whole plant is just an useless mess of plumbing. Safer than a burning fire, but not able to cool the core any more.

Can Forth Fusion Reactor McGyver That Crap Together Like Wire and Wet String?
Always!

But first you need to figure out how to build a viable fusion reactor.
Hint to Foolish Humans:  It may be physically impossible in a low gravity environment like encountered on the surface of your puny little planet.
