Remember kids... a critical reactor is a happy reactor. Descriptions of criticalilty just describes the net change from the previous neutron cycle. Zero change is critical and sustaining. Sub is down; Supercritical is increasing. A supercritical reactor might turn into an angry one.
What the operators in SL-1 did was take it prompt critical. That's where there is fractionally enough neutrons just from the immediate fission, not slower (and more controllable) thermal neutrons. That's what happens when you violate procedure and take a control rod out not the four inches directed, but defeat interlocks and take it all the way out.
You aren't buying what the guv'ern'ment is telling you to; you're buying what Madison Avenue is hypnotizing you to buy. 'Cuz you really need that Lincoln Navigator with the spinner rims to get you to your logging site up in the Appalachian.
Am I the only one that had an image of Beavis and Butthead walking through So Cal while the buildings are flopping and twitching like bobbleheads, all the time the our dynamic duo going "Boioioioioinggggg!"
I would believe that retailers would be happier. They would get higher turnover. Better chance for sale to customers that thought $15 was too high; multiple sales from the customer who didn't mind $20 per disc.
My younger brother does CD wholesale resell. Thanks to the godsend that is the Doctrine of First sale, publishers and artists have already received their percentage on the copyrighted material. Most big name music stores, having limited floorspace for "new" music, rarely sell every copy, and sell the leftovers for pennies on the dollar for ticketed price to 2nd tier wholesalers. My brother as a third tier wholesaler then picks out the gemstones, and lists them on Ebay or Amazon. 80% of what he has will likely end up as landfill....
Wouldn't you think first tier retailers would like to change the price point and move more items at a higher overall profit?
Why would I bother to plug in my cell or place it on a charge mat, just to have it waste several hours reaching full charge? I could just put in my microwave and cook on high for three minutes! I'm going go try this Right Now! I'll tell you how well it went.
Yeah, except you did for periodic maintenance to calibrate a piece of equipment older than yourself, not set up cutting edge equipment. That, and I don't think the equipment was sensitive to measure the difference of a few feet AND still work over twelve or thirteen decades. But that;s why they get the big grant bucks.

In fact, it's such a heinous crime against the moral compass of society, it should probably carry the death penalty.
But, if you're looking to reach a website to kill your self... and doing so carries the death penalty... oh... Ooohh!
You're goooood!
If you just wait a little longer, it'll be accessible in the fourth dimension. Just you wait!

So, how long before we have a child prodigy that can twice save the existence of an alien race, all by speaking into his jewel to Jane?
Save time on memorizing all the episodes. Just remember one phrase:
"Simpsons did it already!"
Didn't China require protesters at the Olympics to "register" prior to being investigated and beaten?

But where would Steve Martin get more material for a musical performance?
That would be sweet!

Sounds like something a Totalitarian regime would do.
There, fixed that for you
So then the "When you see it..." is not a recently invented meme, but ages old?
