Nuclear meltdown! Holy Godzilla NOOOO!!!

Japs? WTF?

He seems to insist on adding to ignorance rather than fighting it.

I just wish he would pick one thread and stick to it, instead of spewing his crap in every single thread on this topic.

Of course, I also wish I had a pony.

While they report the figures for dead Japanese, you don’t actually see any bodies on the tube. And nobody is fretting or checking CNN for an update on if it is 19,000 dead, or 21,000 dead. No, people want to know about the crisis at the 6 reactors. Because that can actually effect them.

Same for a dam breaking. Nobody is showing video of that areas, and explaining how dangerous it is, because unless you were there at the time, it simply doesn’t effect you.

It’s silly that I even have to explain this to you. I mean, how old are you? You don’t know how things work? Why the nuclear crisis is a story?

And a dam that killed 2,000 people is no longer a story? It’s called News for a reason.

30,000 dead Japanese people are outside my monkeysphere, I’m afraid - I am unable to feel bad about every single one of them. I do feel bad that such a horrible act of nature happened there and has affected so many lives, though.

Yep, but a plutonium reactor going BOOM, and taking out 6 other reactors with it, that is way inside my Monkeysphere. Even if it was in outer Mongolia.

A nuclear pony.

If we could cross bred his absolute stupidity with Dio’s unmatchable buttheadedness, the resulting poster from hell spawn could rip the space time continuum to such an extent that it would make a black hole shit its pants in abject terror.

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Hey if it’s good enough for Superman

heh

If they don’t keep over immediately it is not a problem. 30 years from now if half of them are dead from cancer no one individual will be able to prove to the satisfaction of the pro-nuke people that the cause was the irradiation. They will dismiss it as a statistical anomaly. Here’s an example of how various organizations obfuscate nuclear deaths: http://www.seattlepi.com/national/1103ap_eu_ukraine_chernobyls_lessons.html

How can it effect me, or affect me? It will effect me by giving dumbasses a reason to be afraid of more nuclear power, thus causing them to continue to use their coal plants to pump mercury into the fish that we already can’t eat because they have so much mercury already. Thanks a lot.

You killed all those coal miners.

And you know every stinky hippy in California who gets cancer for the next dozen decades is going to blame it on Fukushima.

They knew the risks.

So what? They are hippies, nobody will care.

Reagan and Nixon were Californians. They weren’t no stinky hippies!

Just curious…has anyone ever seen FXMastermind and Le Jac in the same room? If they have…do they, well, look alike? Like peas in a pod perhaps? They seem to be cut from very similar cloth, though obviously it’s different issues that set them off. For Le Jac it’s anything to do with trade or women. For FXM, it seems to be anything to do with nuclear power so far.
