  1. Re:Contradicted here... on Is Your Printer Ripping You Off? · · Score: 1

    Iv'e been using a Canon Pixma IP4000 for about a year. I bought an 8oz bottle of black ink for about $20. I refill the cartridge about every 2 - 3 weeks. I've gotten a small nnumber of messy prints, but lately, I do not even bother removing the tank from the printer. Just pull the tab, and squirt in the ink.

  2. Green Run on U.S. Nuclear Cleanup Carries Major Risks · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Check out this URL regarding releases of gasses from Hanford in the 1945-1972 timeframe. http://www.doh.wa.gov/hanford/publications/history /release.html

    But Hanford's largest single release of iodine-131 was the result of a secret military experiment. "Green Run" refers to a secret U.S. Air Force Experiment at Hanford that released somewhere between 7,000 and 12,000 curies of iodine-131 to the air on December 2-3, 1949.
    Most of my family lived 50 miles away in Yakima at the time. They did the same experiment in Oak Ridge in Tennessee, at about the same time.
