The government is not going to let Nuclear Power Plants just dump their waste in the river without regard. There would be very serious repercussions to any unsanctioned dumping of radioactive material. Jesus christ, I live 30 miles from a nuclear power plant! Red Wing, MN. Look it up. THERE HAVE BEEN ZERO DEATHS OR SICKNESSES FROM THIS PLANT.

Muahaha :twisted:

I'm sorry, but why the hell do you need everything spoon fed to you? Go find this stuff on your own. Ah well, I guess I'll find it for you: http://www.heartland.org/Article.cfm?artId=16809 http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9502E7DD1330F937A2575BC0A962958260 ARE YOU CONVINCED YET? Nuclear power is the way to go. There is not one reason why not to other than that people are stubborn, old-fashioned, and cannot commit to any type of change.

Really? Wow that's pretty amazing. He seems like such a nice, honest songwriter. And yeah you're from the same area he retreated to in his cabin aren't you? (Wisconsin). Thanks for the recommendation with Kings of Convenience. Yeah I live about 40 miles from Eau Claire, WI which is where he (Vernon) and my teacher grew up. We're located directly between EC and the Twin Cities (Minneapolis & St. Paul, MN) so it's go to either place for the mall or shopping. We're constantly in EC doing things and my teacher called me up one day and asked if I wanted to meet him, so I did. As to where his cabin is, I do not know. I have a general idea, but not for sure. He said 60 miles north of EC in one interview I saw. That's not too far for a cabin; mine is at least 100 or more miles north.

Sooo many people ignoring magekillr's post. Mage, you had a very well-informed post that pretty much sums up all there is to know about nuclear power. :D

The way the article described it, it was just some mild stomach bug. Who knows if that's just a blanket statement for all the cases though.

I watched that and American Psycho back to back with my friends last year. Creepiest night of my life.

V for Vendetta? Haha, if you're not thinking of that movie, it certainly happens in it. It even happened in the UK which is why I thought of it right away.

Scary stuff. V for Vendetta time? :D

1 year old topic ftl -.-

Beat me to it. His stuff is just, sublime. Also Fleet Foxes, their harmonies are so beautiful and powerful. My high school history teacher from sophomore year and who I'm very good friends with now is one of Justin Vernon's best friends. I've met him several times \ If you like harmonies and acoustic music, check out Kings of Convenience.

I'd say because Slipknot has about 50x more talent in every musician than there was in all the musicians in Stone Sour, and because he grew up with these guys. If you watch the interviews from the Voliminal DVD, Slipknot is more than just a band to them, it's the reason why they act the way they do on stage and the reason why Slipknot has kept every original member since the beginning of the band; a feat most bands cannot do of that size.

Just for reference, this album is going to be more experimenting with melody and acoustic things too as Corey Taylor has previously stated. It's not going to be fast and heavy all the time.

Goes in the ClanChat directory.

Sorry, but why would the price go up? If you gave me an Ebay link I might understand the logic here... Isn't this commercially avaliable? True, but since he has died, a lot of people are going to want these. If they stop producing them, prices will go sky high considering that is all his stuff in one collection.

I was going to guess Battle Royale haha.

Those look exactly like the hotel balconies in... Tommy Boy.

thats not strictly true, solar power, wind power and hydro are all safer. There are also hazards regarding waste. The US uses their all knowing hand to stop countries like iran and north korea from producing nuclear power, but its all :thumbsup: for them to do it? Those are not safer by any means. Trust me on this, I watched a 3 hour long video in my last chemistry class this year (our teacher was a huge nuclear power person). And we are not preventing them from nuclear power, just from developing nuclear weapons. Huge difference. Besides, what reason would I have to lie about all this stuff? :| It's all fact if you want to go look for yourself instead of just using what you've "heard" from conversations with other people...

Futurama: Bender's Big Score?

Just look at France, they are almost completely dependent on Nuclear power. They have NEVER ONCE had a nuclear fallout. It's the uneducated rural people of America that continue to petition because they "don't want those smoke stacks ruining their view".

Coming on Thursday :) :) :)

I'm not evil anymore. FLAME FLAME FLAME FLAME! :thumbsup:

Chernobyl is, unfortunately, the reason why we have almost no nuclear power plants in the United States. Nuclear power is one of the most efficient and SAFE ways to produce energy, but because of Chernobyl, many people are afraid of it because they don't know the real facts about it.
