  1. Context-Sensitive?? on Yahoo, Adobe To Serve Ads In PDFs · · Score: 1

    I've never found ads to be context sensitive in slightest. If I search for "Racists", all I get is, "Get your Racists from Walmart! All the "Racists" you'll ever need, all for the lowest prices!". Completely useless.

  2. Re:safely stored for 30,000 years... on Radiation Not As Hazardous As Once Believed · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Workable solution: Glassification of the waste. How do you think we get rid of other toxic wastes??? Turning our radioactive left overs into harmless crystal and dumping it in ocean trenches is easily the safest answer. Contrary to many peoples views, the middle of the ocean is almost devoid of life. The life that exists in the trenches is questionable as new species are being discovered down there, however, even they wouldn't be impacted because of the DRASTICALLY reduced level of radiation produced by glass waste. This is not a new solution, and plants are being built in numerous locations to help deal with our ever increasing production of toxic wastes such as left overs from Nuke plants.

  3. Glassification on Portable Nuclear Battery in the Development Stages · · Score: 1

    Something I have yet to see mentioned on slashdot is the glassification of radioactive wastes. This process converts extremely dangerous chemical and radioactive elements into inert glass which could safely be deposited in some of our planets deepest oceanic trenches. There are constantly new ways of disposing of radioactive materials being thought up and just because it has a "decades old half-life" is the most ridiculous statement ever. If you for whatever reason subscribe to this line of reasoning, then ask yourself why our cities are dumping thousands upon thousands of tons of chemicals into our water systems and letting them flow downstream. Do you honestly think we have the ability to purify out water such that the water we end up pouring downstream is pristine? Not at all! Daily chemicals of varying toxicity are dumped into the environment, and these will not simply break down in a matter of years.
