Nope. Sorry. Makes no sense at all. Lots of energy coming up with wild theories as to why U.S. government operatives wanted to cover this up but there is really no viable reason the Vietnamese government would do this. Why hold POWs secretly? Doesn’t it put more pressure on the U.S. government if the public…

Agreed. There really wasn’t ever any reason for the North Vietnamese government to hold POWs that long after the war. They had a bargaining chip, why not use it? They would have been even MORE valuable if the public was made aware. It simply doesn’t make any sense. The only reason I ever hear is “they were the…

As you can see it has a danish flag on it. It isn’t a bandage, its his Danish Kamikaze bandana or Hachimaki.

LM stock has been doing rather well the last couple of years. He wants to buy in but fears it might be too high. He tweets a negative bit about their largest program so he can have one of his abstracted portfolios buy the stock. Later, he’ll flip flop.

For some reason I find it hard to break out of the mindset that 90’s are not far behind us, and anything made after 2005 is spanking new.

Ladies and gents, your de facto First Lady.

I like the General Sherman quotes as well...

The neighbors vet will spend forever trying to figure out how depleted uranium foam got all over the damn dog.

Still offers better CAS than an F-35.

Already more combat-effective than the F-35

“Untraceable” cash as opposed to what? WalMart gift cards?

I’d say vote for Johnson. It’s better than not voting at all. There’s almost no chance of him winning, but if he gets a good turnout this year then maybe in 2020 the third party candidates will get more coverage and a better shot at the presidency. By not voicing your discontent, you’re allowing the two party system…

Most of the Chinese knockoffs claim that they were made by the same workers in the same factory actually. Sometimes that’s true, I know a guy that bought a brand new EOTech for half off and he didn’t even realize it was a knockoff till he looked closer and it actually said EORTech on the side. That’s the only…

I am quite involved in astronomical telescope optics.

“Yes. And based on this information, we can only assume that this means it is constructed entirely of unobtanium, with a cloaking device, a nuclear gravitron death ray, and the ability to dive underwater.”

I’m more interested in Lockheed-Martin’s fusion reactor. It’s supposed to fit on a semi truck and be available by 2020. They are super secretive about it though, so whether or not they are successfully creating fusion reactions is completely unknown.

Lockheed.

I think you might be thinking of Lockheed Martin, which has a skunkworks project on an alternative approach to fusion that shows promise.

1) Spent fuel rods can be reused in generating electricity in specialized plants, making the actual amount of waste generated minimal. Even if they aren’t reused, the actual waste produced is still minimal compared to the other viable energy production alternatives.
