Kleen energy plant Middletown, Conn September 2010 for natural gas
Progress energy plant in Willmington, NC March 2010 for coal.
I'm not familiar with any fatal blasts at any strictly petroleum plants offhand.
As for people in danger, not at those plants from a blast, but standard operation of a coal plant puts a decent amount of radioactive material in the air. I doubt anyone will deny that nuclear has a worse catastrophic failure scenario, but it is vastly better in ideal operation. The question is which has better results overall. Given the record of fossil fuels compared to nuclear I'd guss that nuclear wins by a large margin.
Your question wasn't if there was some degree of moral equivalence. You asked when Libya has been involved in wars abroad. The answer to that is all the time.
His history as a professor and his place on the board of the National Space Society at least hint that he was probably the one to read them. He may be a political douche, but he is also a bright guy with a lot of time on his hands.
I never claimed to buy such socks, but if 60 minutes or you can't find them it reflects more on you. Frankly I'm thrilled that basically the lowest industrial task of textiles is someone else's problem.
In what way is the US not a production powerhouse? It is the single largest manufacturing country on the planet and in the top five or ten for many raw resources. If that doesn't qualify as a production powerhouse no one does.
Why would they bother slipping in extra secret features. It is a chip being put in a device that can already track you and listen in on you. Adding any extra bonus rights infringement just increases their costs and risk of being caught.
Absent regulation there is no way to deal with these situations. Each company has enough plausible deniability that it wasn't their action specifically that caused the problem. Consider the lovely Cuyahoga river when it burned and took out a railroad bridge. No one company created a flammable river but the actions of the companies combined did just that. Lawsuit damages are not good at dealing with diffuse collective action.
The Atlantic Triangular Trade actually makes more sense. If it were only slaves the route wouldn't have been as lucrative and slavery might have come to an end on its own. People at all three points of that triangle bear some degree of complicity.
The E. coli long-term evolution experiment should suit your needs nicely. The ability to process citrate is used as a marker of speciation and suddenly the E. coli could do so.
So someone in one of the highest risk fields in an area with the least ability to pay still brings home a professional income after all of her costs? That doesn't seem very representative or very bad.
I'm not sure that would do any good. Compare the loss of life in the 1258 siege of Baghdad to the 2003 invasion of the same city. Targeted killing at a distance may allow for reduced consequences for the belligerents, but it also allows for discretion.
I can only imagine that a Tunguska type event hitting a reactor would spread the radioactive material enough to greatly reduce the risk. The increased death and mutations would still be smaller than the deaths from the same event over a major city.
You mean seventy years ago, before little things like the exclusionary rule applying to states? The cop may be less polite now, but some very substantial checks on police power have come into being in the past few decades.
If the only goal were teaching thinking skills, maybe they would be. They are also hoping to boost national prestige and turn out more skilled chess players. Go doesn't fill those needs.
It takes fewer jobs to build one datacenter than 100 bookstores. No matter how far back you draw the line efficiency has cut jobs in the industry. That may very well be good for the economy as a whole, but digital distribution is successful in large part because it eliminates those people.

Libya was actively involved in fueling the civil wars in Sierra Leone and other countries in the region.

I learned about it here, might as well pass it along.

Damn those Northerners for firing on Fort Sumter.

The is a much better reason than Alger Hiss that Stalin wasn't tried at Nuremburg. He was the sitting head of one of the countries holding the trials.

I've actually been considering joining the one here in Cleveland once some funds free up.

They also generally offer equipment that would be less likely in a home setting.
We've had the better part of a decade to figure out if they are prisoners of war or common criminals and aren't meeting the standards of either.
It is pretty sad that you are making this a political issue.
