    ...accelerator-driven transmutation - does the trick!

  4. Re:Decomissioning and waste management? on Uranium Pebbles May Light the Way · · Score: 1

    Guess what? The enriched uranium they use in reactors contains in the region of 3% to 4% U-235 - making it litterary too hot to handle.

    Bullshit! Unused, reactor-grade uranium is perfectly safe to handle with your bare hands. They will show you this at any organised visit to a commercial plant.
    (This, obviously, isn't true for reactors designed for producing weapons-grade material, obviously...)

    let a sworn enemy of the US collect the illegal weapons

    Isn't it a bit naff to supply our sworn enemy with illegal weapons of mass distruction? I mean, if you don't want him to have them, just don't sell them to him in the first place!

    illegal weapons that everybody agreed he had

    Yea, everyone, except the rest of the world outside USA, UK, Spain, Italy and Poland...

    ://:/* is a valid URI, thus (according to your argument) every (available) resource on every computer on the internet is on the WWW, which is, ofcourse, rubbish...

  13. Re:Are you sure Microsoft doesn't understand on Cringley on Microsoft and Linux · · Score: 1

    Microsoft truly doesn't understand, which is why they are spreading FUD.

  14. Re:Target Price 45 on SCO Backing Off Linux Invoice Plan · · Score: 1

    The economy is run by us. We're the consumers.

    Bullshit! The economy is run by global investment banks, like Deutsche, JP and Citi. The ordinary consumer doesnt' have a say on the stock market.

    BTW, I'm within earshot of the guys (and gals) lending the stock and can confirm the previous posters claims from this point of view as well...

    How can that possibly be anti American, when your constitution explicitly bans the establishing of a state religion!?

    Freedom of Religion includes Freedom from Religion - The right, not only to choose to pracice any religion, but the right to choose to not practice any religion at all.

    (FWIW, I am a practicing Christian)
