World Nuclear University Launched
nuke-alwin writes "The first meeting of the 'academic council' of the newly-launched World Nuclear University (WNU) was held in the UK last week. The mission of the WNU is to strengthen the international community of people and institutions to guide and further develop nuclear power and many other nuclear applications (in agriculture, medicine, environmental protection). As workers in the nuclear industry are aging, organisations have started Young Generation Networks such as the YGN of the British Nuclear Energy Society. The WNU is a further recognition that the nuclear industry needs to educate a new generation of workers, so that nuclear power can continue to provide electricity without the production of greenhouse gases."
Trolling is a art,
Students attending this new university are reported to have a half-life of only 18 months. Essentially, upon graduating students have little to no life left in them. How this differs from any other university remains to be seen.

When in the same sentence, the words 'launch' and 'nuclear' usually signal bad things are to come.
A bunch of drunk college frat boys with nuclear waste. Nothing can go wrong with that at all.

Development of nuclear weapons can now be instilled in the hands of college students!! Go world peace!! :D
Prof: This proton accelerator destabilizes the atom in this chamber here, then propels it--
Homer: Uh, excuse me, Professor Brainiac, but I worked in a nuclear power plant for ten years, and, uh, I think I know how a proton accelerator works.
Prof: Well, please, come down and show us.
Homer: All right, I will.
Everyone abandons the glowing green building. Homer walks out, glowing green himself.
Homer: [to meltdown men] In there, guys.
Men: Thanks, Homer.

Just remember, its pronounced NUK A LER.

My fellow Americans,
I am extremely concerned about this nuclear school and what it means for our national securitization. We must not misunderestimatify the potential for doing both good and evil that this nuclear school provides. We must keep tabs on it to make sure that the nuclear knowledge does not fall into the wrong hands and remains in the control of Americans for the good of America.
Thank you and God bless America.

I look forward to seeing the first convocation ceremony for the Nuclear University. All those young, fresh-faced graduates, glowing with pride... at least, we hope it's pride...

That's why we call it "Moderation Abuse". This guy's comment obviously didn't sit well with someone's hippie agenda, and that hippie just happened to have mod points.
/. If you post a comment that doesn't conform to the anti-capitalist, anti-Microsoft, [Apple|Linux]-is-the-be-all-and-end-all agenda, you can rest assured that you will get modded down into the Seventh Circle of Hell, no matter how insightful or otherwise brilliant your comment actually is.
See, that's how it works on
Nuclear energy. So clean and cheap and efficient. Its almost worth getting cancer.
