66. Nuclear shit we made is a bit different from water, duh.

Wed May 2, 2012, 02:11 AM

May 2012

But if that nuclear shit in Japan goes kapowie again--or any of the other gadzillions of nuclear shit here and around the world--we might well want to drown ourselves.

You do know it can go kapowie again, don't you? Sure you do. But that ain't half the story, and you know that as well. Or may be don't. This diversionary tactic--about us all drowning in the oceans--is about the dumbest remark I have ever read. Is it possible that you really believe it--that nuclear materials released into the atmosphere and the oceans is no more dangerous than all the water on earth, should we all fall into it and drown?
