Not really -- it will just be diluted until not a single homeopathy vendor remains, but the market will retain the essence of the original vendors and the effect will be even more potent.
Oh, I see what you did there - nice work!
When you say "I was told" "some people in my family"/"at least 2 people" it is an anecdote (to us).
Kind of like your story is to me.
Yes. Maybe the Russians stole it?
It was probably the aliens idea of a joke.
Huh?! It didn't run for "hours".
So you admit you weren't paying attention
No such thing as ADD or dsylexia then.
If you do your maths I have to be somewhere between 53 and 67 (between 5 and 18 at the time, ).
So, back then would they have called you "A little fucken smart arse" instead?
Do you not have complete memories of important, much heralded events during that time?
When I lost my virginity?
It helps that television was very new - we "watched" it then
YOU WERE WATCHING!!! Well, I suppose you're only human.
(and wearing onions on our belts was a custom at the time, back in nineteen dicketty doo).
Generation triple X, read all about the weed smoke and the kinky sex, get fucked.
There's the problem! [brains are probably soft as their arteries, mutter, mutter]
I think you are onto something.
... and have all the facts. Otherwise you run a strong risk of finding only facts that support a preconceived rationale.
HooRay for Hollywood!!! Vested interests exist, so the truth is constantly raped. Thanks for sharing what you heard, as I said I'm not committed to a view on this, it is interesting.
The one we didn't vote for (1988) - thanks to Alan Jones and other conspiracy nutters. As such the only constitutional rights we have is free trade between states - which we do not have.
Indeed he is a cunt, but the apathetic morons that listen to him are worse. He sucked a lot of cock to get where he is today and is proud of it.
If you want to pursue conspiracies
Too busy reading legislative articles, writing letters and lobbying to preserve the minor sheds of freedom we have left to have time. Why is it that the only time the two parties agree is when it is to pass some laws to become more intrusive.
That it is no conspiracy and I agree, Australia needs a bill of rights.
It's a binary thing, and I'm not relying on anecdotes. I know what I heard, and I've heard a lot of conspiracy stories since. I've discussed it with family and friends since - who also remember the actual event
My bad, I didn't mean anecdotal (posting tired). They were family members who heard those words from the broadcast and have maintained the story with no variation.
No. Your response is arrogant - or do you call dismissing the opinion of the majority in favor of the opinions of a few, open-minded?
Apologies, I was tired a not doing very good job of not taking it personally because it was family and I didn't express myself properly. I had doubt myself
It didn't? Which article - the one referenced by the
Sorry, I'd closed that down because the ads were annoying. It's a tragic loss, to see the high res film instead of a film of a monitor in B/W would be an appropriate use of the word awesome.
It's a bothersome mindworm though.
I suspect it's just a case of "don't criticise us about the Ukraine or our hosting the 2018 FIFA"
Not an unreasonable premise.
What are you trying to say? That you can't do maths - or am ad-hominen attack properly? (if they're 20 years older than me they've been pensioners for some time - maybe there's an organic explanation? see that's how it's done)
Not at all, no attack intended, just tired. I don't know many children can maintain that attention for that many hours. I'd agree with you on the organic explanation but the story has been maintained for well over 30 years. I just don't see a punchline anytime soon.
That my parents, uncles (including one who worked at Parkes as a non-NASA employee at the time), aunties, teachers and many thousands of other "non-school age" Australians are part of the same conspiracy? (bear in mind we didn't have fluoridated water in our youth).
Well I don't believe they have maintained a lie either, I have no idea what it means. They don't drink, smoke or take drugs. I'm not committed to any view point on the matter and maybe I'll get to listen to the whole thing one day.
I'm curious and wouldn't be at all surprised if that happened, not that it'd mean that much given that members of congress believe all sorts of wacky shit - and represent some truly weird beliefs.
Who knows, there are so many lies out there and so many amazing stories sound like wacky shit. You can pursue the truth if you can evaluate it rationally.
(as do some of our senators e.g. the shower of stupid that came down prior to the Bill of Rights referendum).
Which Bill of Rights?
Do you have a reference for that, and how much weight do you believe it adds to the conspiracy?
I wish I did, but it was never important enough to my to bother with. I wanted to dismiss it. But I went from doubt to WTF!
At best someone has been yanking your chain. You say you heard that from someone who saw it - almost every Australian from a few years younger than me - to 5 years older would have watched (tv wasn't in every home, but most schools had one, even if they borrowed it) it -
Wow, that's a pretty absolute statement to make. Don't you think you are being a little bite arrogant? I said, 'Anecdotal' and 'I don't go in for the whole UFO thing or conspiracy theories about the moon landings' so apart from giving them the benefit of the doubt that was the limit of my chain being yanked.
I was speculating on what the Russian government wanted investigated about the moon landing because it didn't say in the article. I wasn't there so I don't have the benefit of what you saw in school but I do know that it was at least 2 people who told me the same thing and they had adult mature brains with an adult capacity for memory, making them approximately 20 years older than you at the time. Still, I had some doubt.
yet only the supposed source of you anecdote heard "Huston, Huston, There is something large and unusually* white coming off the crater ri..." and then the feed was cut?!
The feed wasn't "cut" either.
I don't claim that what I know is the truth, are you? I was curious about what other people had heard because, yes, I doubted it myself until I read about a U.S Congressman asking Congress question about exactly the same statement by Apollo 11. It wasn't what I expected to find.
So maybe they weren't the only ones who heard those words. I didn't, either.
It is interesting to note that some of Disney's most well-known films are based on public domain works, while Disney has been one of the biggest factors in eliminating the public domain altogether.
can you open that up for us? I wasn't aware of this, and would appreciate a short schooling session
Mr AC is referring to many of the Disney stories being old European stories that were in the public domain. They used those stories in many of their works - I don't know which ones.
Ok so this is completely anecdotal from some people in my family who watched it in Australia. They watched/listened to it live off the feed from Parkes and a bit after the Eagle landed they heard a very excited Armstrong say: "Huston, Huston, There is something large and unusually* white coming off the crater ri..." and then the feed was cut.
* could have also been suspiciously.
Personally, I don't go in for the whole UFO thing or conspiracy theories about the moon landings but they have both maintained this story as what they both heard. I always thought those stories were just covers for intelligence operations - which seemed more feasible. I just think the moon landings were a pretty amazing achievement.
I just realized, the drone streaming video is reality TV for the military and it's a hit!!
Imagine the commercial breaks!!
We could call it 'getting facefucked' and the cameras could now squirt semen in people's face to complete the experience.
The fact that even less people understand the difference between the non-weapon grade Pu238, and the weapon grade Pu239/Pu241. For them, it's Pu, so it's bad.
No one is afraid of an RTG turning into a bomb. However it is launched, int space, by a carefully contained bomb igniting in a controlled manner. Even the particulate matter from u-238 (roughly a killo IIRC) introduced into the environment from an exploding launch vehicle is far from benign.
Besides I'm unclear if the RTG was justified for this mission mass or duration wise.
a HUGE part of the problem is in domestic nuclear industry that isn't replacing plants far past their operational lifetime with the newer and MUCH safer designs, since that would cost real money and the stockholders want that to be reexamined next quarter, after they sell.
Unfortunately AP-1000 doesn't offer much in the way of improvements, EPR is a better design however it should really be a combination of the best from both of them. New Russian reactors have significant design advances also.
And short. Greed and stupidity on both sides...
Which is the problem, design improvements aren't there to make the reactor better, they're there to make it cheaper.
That's a statistic I'd find hard to believe.
Actually the amount of cases of thyroid cancer recorded was around 25,000 6 years after Chernobyl and climbing before the funding was cut for the research. It's difficult to wrap your head around because it happens so slowly, you almost have to accelerate time to understand it in context however I have very little doubt that future generations will hate us for what we have done now.
The real kicker though is the pu-239, leukemia and lung cancer are the primary cancers from that element and no one has recorded data on that.
As an aside though, I've got no problem with using RTG in space however I think the mass may have introduced all sorts of complications. The other thing is that I don't think that the mission was of sufficient duration to justify a RTG.
It's unlikely to ever get much higher in a verifiable way. How will we ever know? You can say that this or that cancer is most likely caused by irradiation or ingestion of some isotope that could only come from the incident, but it's rarely that cut and dried.
Collect the data, over the long term, continuously and never stop doing so. Capture widespread information about which radio isotopes are released, understand the elements that in analogues and then look for the statistical changes in the types of cancers those radio isotopes produce.
No man is an island if he's on at least one mailing list.
