A good portion of the desire to have a grandkid is *also* to be able to spoil it a bit and then send it home to its parents - with very, very noisy toys. I am going to get them a drum kit, dirt bike, stereo, and huge Marshal stacks to go with the electric guitars I buy them.
I confess, it's immature revenge. I fully admit my petty behavior. Those of us who are parents will understand.
If the area is radioactive for tens of thousands of years, that means that it is decaying slowly and that the risk is quite minimal. It confuses me when people are more afraid of something with a half life of tens of thousands of years vs. something with a half life of five hundred years.
It's the shit that rapidly decays that you have to worry about. That's sending out a whole lot of particles, quickly.
They are at a significant advantage. I sold my company ten years back and got a rather obscene amount of money for it. Put it this way, it had to have SEC filings. They don't actually have to worry about money but I'm kinda a prick. I'll give them enough money to survive - I won't give them enough so that they don't have to work. Even when I'm dead, they don't get it all - it is already structured to maintain itself and will pay them reasonable amounts, provide for charitable donations, and other such things. The grandkids kinda got it made, as in they'll never have to worry about paying for education and will be able to take out reasonable loans to start businesses, or similar.
As near as I can tell, so long as the US remains solvent and the stock markets continue to trade, and the bonds are repaid, this should continue in perpetuity. It probably changes things in that I'm a mathematician. There is no mechanism afford for the family to be able to alter much of this, in a direct fashion. There are a few things for them to control, but not much.
I will not give them everything they want. They will have to work. I will not have snobs for children.
One's a doctor, she's my favorite - I tell her that all the time, and I tell my son that, as well. He's a college drop out and is in Peru - he works with his rather pretty native lady friend, at her parent's grocery store. I've made sure he knows that if he produces a baby first, he will become my new favorite.
I am not above bribery. Nope.;-)
It was awesome to have them both here for the holidays. Some near six weeks of joy. But, alas, no babies.
I am not twisting your words. I'm demonstrating the fundamental differences between my country and your country. We allow our scum to speak, demonstrate, and say what they want. You disallow that, by law. That's a huge difference.
You have repeated that we're the same. We're culturally very different, in these regards. Our scum doesn't have to hide. Our scum gets police protection - regardless of what they say, how they salute, or what insignia they wear. They don't have to hide. They have no motive to hide. Hell, they're kinda happy (seemingly) with the press they get.
Your country, as evidenced by this very article, raid people - for hate speech. We don't have to worry about that.
I'm glad it works out for you - but I'd rather be able to identify the hate and counter it with reason, as opposed to letting it fester and grow in the shadows.
Ah. okay. The legal terminology is different here. Civil matters (like simple speeding - less than 30 mph over the speed limit) mean you can not go to jail - there's no method in the law for that offense to send you to jail. Criminal matters are those for which the judge can send you to jail. They may not give you a custodial sentence, but they can. That's the difference between a civil and criminal offense.
Civil matters require less proof. They must prove you more likely than not committed the offense alleged by the State.
Criminal matters require more proof. They must prove that you committed the offense beyond reasonable doubt.

Won't. Won't sell... Stupid tablet.
Won't work. I am a citizen and I own properly in NS. I don't need the money. I want sell.
On the other hand, if they do so, I can be my own country! Err... It's like five acres.
I wonder if I can join NATO and the UN?
Elven archers are the main concern.
I done told that teacher lady I learnt all them letters I needed to learn... U S and A! Yeehaw!
You may wish to look and see the current research being done in Chernobyl. Animals are doing quite well, surprisingly so.
I am not saying it's safe. I'm saying it's not nearly as huge a problem as people seem to think it is.
No. I will still hunt and fish. Moose is delicious.
No, we don't eat humans because that is really unhealthy. Stuff like prions are problematic.
I kill and process almost every meat product I eat.
Next question?
Well, you grew mold and bacteria. All is not lost.
And beef is delicious. So worth it.
Point conceded.
The longer the contamination, the less energy being released per unit of time.
It's pretty simple particle physics.

So falling for a lie, that really shouldn't be believed, isn't stupid... Huh..
It's no wonder you bomb yourselves into rubble, every couple of generations.
Google employs more than that.
Also, I never said anything more than that. Save your time to put words in other mouths.
Funny you say that...
We recently learned that the coral die-off is over.
Huh...
Before you go full retard, I see strong evidence to suggest the cause of climate change is human output. I am a scientist.
Alright... I wasn't going to comment but I must.

I don't believe this is about you. You are not the customer, you are the product. This is about those who wish to advertise.
100,000 is a trivially small number of people.
Huh... First you try to say they are smart, now you say they are stupid.

I like their maps. I am told their search is pretty good, now. I don't know, I don't use it. I do like their maps, however.
The original iPad didn't even have Bluetooth.
