If you have any problem on where to put this facility, you actually have two great choices : North Korea and Iran.

GNAA Announces Project to Port Slashcode to ASP.NET GNAA Announces Project to Port Slashcode to ASP.NET
Fremont, California - In a surprise announcement, GNAA has
announced a truce and alliance with the popular news for trolls website
Slashdot.
GNAA member godspeed broke the news at an early-evening press conference,
announcing that GNAA would cease trolling the website, and will instead work
with the current Slashdot staff on porting the Slashcode to ASP.NET, to be run
under IIS.
"We've had our difference with Slashdot in the past," godspeed began, "but
with recent slowdowns in performance on the website, they have finally realized
that Opensource is indeed dead, and it's time to move on and replace their
antiquated codebase with something that will meet the modern day's needs. We're
pleased to be given the opportunity to work with the Slashdot staff on making
this port. Of course, the new code will not be opensourced, an NDA will be
signed in blood by all who see it and if you release it, the penalty... well,
you've seen what happened to Nick Berg, Paul Johnson, and the others. Major
changes to be implemented include the removal of goatse link evasion, major
overhauls to the karma system, and the replacement of pinkpages with LastMeasure,"
At this point godspeed turned the podium over to fellow GNAA member goat-see
and stormed out of the room. goat-see offered to take any questions the
audiencemembers have. When asked why there were no Slashdot representatives at
the conference, he was quick to reply "You can speak to CowboyNeal outside
after we're through here, we couldn't get that motherfucker in here without
widening the doorframes. Next question?," eliciting a hearty chuckle from the
audience. When asked the reason for the sudden change in relations with
Slashdot, goat-see paused to think for a moment, before answering "Our
historical differences were meant to hilight the flaws in the Slashdot system.
As soon as the staff realized what an impacted shitpile their site was and the
need to update it, we were the first to volunteer to assist in the migration.
We look forward to seeing the hight performace of ASP.NET pages with a MS SQL
backend as much as any other nigger out there."
bare, a GNAA member sitting in the audience, stood up and confirmed
this announcement with a hearty "LOL." goat-see concluded the conference
at that point, saying "If you have any further questions, please direct
them to new GNAA member Wil Wheaton,
now let's all go outside and poke that fat fuck CowboyNeal with sticks."

and we're never going to get around to exploiting solar energy as long as we remain terrestrial - there's simply not enough energy hitting the earth to supply our needs. We need to get that space elevator built and get those orbital solar satellites running pronto!
In an ideal world, research like this would be done by an internationally funded, politically independant organisation. When the research was done the technology should be public domain - free for all to use. No patents, no licensing.
But unfortunately politics and economic interests again gets in the way and science suffers yet again.

The Earth is not a closed system jackass. We have this big burning thing a mere 1 AU away providing practically limitless energy.
I thought they were gainfully employed in the
spinoff industry of nuclear proliferation.
Tell'em there are lots openings in Tehran's
commercial nuclear power sector.

Interesting... a "troll" mod.
I guess I was trolling and didn't know it. A flamebait mod I could have maybe understood, but troll? I was actually trying to make a point. Hmmm...
Maybe this comment will get an "Overrated" mod right off the bat. One can only hope.

The worst threat to the oil companies is a new source of near-free power. Kinda predictable that the oil president is in power when this is cancelled.
They must have been getting close to success with the project, big oil had no choice but to kill it.
