I'd like to see all the government officials responsible for this whole NSA spying fiasco to be found hanging from the trees around the national mall; that would be Justice Served.

They are the real Traitors in this; they took the oath, then gave illegal and unconstitutional orders.

I agree; barring incontrovertible evidence to the contrary, the NSA will never be believed again.

Time to dismantle the entire operation and start over with new people; obviously none of these people understand what Domestic enemies are: People who are destroying the Constitution.

It is being destroyed because it is being ignored in the name of "National Security"; that bill of rights is so inconvenient for Despots.

They didn't need to repeal it; take a look around; they know there's nothing we can do about it.

Congress is likely being blackmailed into silence; in our society, everyone is guilty of something, are they not?

And here we always thought the "tinfoil hat" and gun nuts were just crazy... :facepalm:

I know we had unplanned criticality accidents that melted fuel; The US and USSR should have tons of this kind of data.

Shit, ORNL had liquid metal reactors.
Seems like one had to be shut down before it exploded... U233 is a strange beast, apparently; it separates from the liquid metal coolant in globs, lol.

Alvin Weinberg talked about some of the stuff in his books; like burning a whole rail car of uranium to see what happens...

I've made some decent bets about whether or not someone can do a donut as well as my 96 Cougar...

Cars with always-on traction control can't do a donut or burnout, no matter how much horsepower they have.

It really pisses them off when you can do a kille,r around-the-front-wheels donut; and they can't even break it loose. :)

One of my coworkers has a newish Mustang with a blower, and it won't but barely squeak the tires. It won't do anything showy, unless you want to go 100mph in a parking lot. :facepalm:

I'm sure that can be fixed with a tune, but it sure is funny to see someone pay that much and be that ripped off, experience-wise. :)

Dude with the Audi was able to do a 4 wheel drive donut; not something I'd seen, but wtf, it's all good. :)
