"1 million people have died as a result of Chernobyl" and it's all been covered up! That statement is the biggest load of horseshit I've heard. How can you cover up 1 million people dying. People have families and not all family members would stay quiet if one of their relatives was dying a...

I agree they should have steam-turbine pumps as a last-ditch backup. The steam could be raised from the heat of the nuclear pile itself; which, of course, keeps on generating large quantities of heat for months after reactor shut-down. If that's not practical, as you say, raise the steam from...

Exactly. These have diesel powered backups. Why would these diesel generators be affected by EMP? EMP, at worst, only affects unshielded circuit boards, not hardware like generators & motors. We're not talking the sun going nova here (in which case it wouldn't really matter for us anyways)...

I don't think it works that way, Mike. Seriously. And ~Pixlepixie is right too. A few nuclear meltdowns aren't going to make us (mankind) go away either. It really is not that big of a deal.

Not to sound dismissive, but Edward's letter doesn't seem to have too much substance to it. I understand he may be getting excited about what he considers 'unusual geology', but is there anything besides his imagination that is connecting this geology to a supposed UFO crash? Why use a UFO crash...

Has anybody else out there ever observed a craft that looks like this? You mean you weren't fooled by Voyager's CGI trickery? And here I was, just about to send you the photo of my bowler hat thrown up in the air, lit up with 5 blue and red led's as a promo for the UFO tours I was going to...

Has anybody else out there ever observed a craft that looks like this? Are you saying it reacted to avoid the beam? Did it suddenly change its trajectory, or did it start to glow differently. How did it really react; because you're implying it 'blinked'. I assume you were equipped with a...

Brendon Hill's narrative at http://www.smh.com.au/technology/sci-tech/ufo-theory-on-lights-in-tassie-sky-20110530-1fbtq.html adds a lot of authenticity to the video. Hmm, what can you say? Really strange lights. I wonder if the light sources are quite directional which would mean observers only...

CGI fake, lighting looks wrong.

Hah! The meaning of life as tought by an anaesthesiologist. I think Stuart has made a convert of me.

Yes, I have read some of Stuart's papers (some co-authored with Roger Penrose, of Penrose-diagram fame). While I cannot vouch for the quantitative models that he presents of quantum superpositions occuring in neuron microtubules (the detailed analysis is a little beyond me), I think his theory...

This is probably because Ben and his ilk use the Chupacabras as a set-piece; a straw-man, if you will. So the actual subject is not really important and simply serves as a means to an end.. They start by pretending that they are neutral skeptics, scientific investigators. They are, however, not...

I do not claim expertise in the graphics field (though I do claim expertise in basic geometry and trigonometry). This is why I try to pose questions about the subjects to people with expertise in the field. When I do so, on first contact, they usually assume I am mounting a personal attack on...

I do not want to get into a long debate about the technical aspects here, it is not the proper thread. This is why I do not bring screenshots to illustrate my arguments. Nevertheless; Lance, I said 'horizontal line', not 'horizon'. I am fully aware of the proper definition of a line of symmetry...

Yes Lance, I have read the material and do understand your argument. I do agree that the building does appear fully symmetrical about the (almost) vertical line as sketched. I do not agree that the (almost) horizontal line is a true line of symmetry, however. If you look closely at some of the...

Eh, what's that you say. You have definitive proof? I asked you this before and you dredged up the 'hoaxkiller1' YouTube video; something I have qualms about using as proof of anything. As for slinking away; I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be slinking away from. Is it your analytical skills...

Uh, don't go there pupil88, for then your mind has already been read and controlled. I'm really not into mind comtrol.

Kieran, you have to understand. Everybody has their own persperctive. They see everything through a color of their own making. People of one character will see things that are obvious to them, though to others the subject will appear ridiculous. When people look at strange phenomenon, or...

Don't get me wrong, Angelo. I see no problem with being a fan of Ben. I do have problems with Ben's logic and the arguments he uses, but that is another matter. As for Jerusalem, as I said; whatever. You did not see me starting that topic here. It is true, I have tried to prod people for...

I find myself underwhelemed by the clarity and precision in your explanations. Try and understand, Lance, I am not asking you for further analysis and explanations. I know you hold your opinions in high regard. I, for reasons you have shown by your replies, do not:p. I find the diatribe you...
