The movie with the best collection of test footage was Trinity and Beyond , with music by the Moscow Symphony Orchestra and narration by... William... Shat... ner. Most impressive was the Soviet "Tsar Bomba". (King of Bombs) It was a 50 Megaton device that was a testbed for a 100 Megaton 8O bomb. Th... |

My No1 MkIII* Lee-Enfield does that. I may need to give the feed ramp a good polishing. |

Not if they actually have detailed book-keeping. The rifle stuff may be a worry, but I don't think trinitite will be as worrying. I mean, can you make a dirty bomb with glass? It'd be impractical, IMHO. I was thinking more on what the driver might report after he looks up the markings on the heavy ... |

66F & Cloudy at just shy of 0700, but we had tornados back around 0315. Nothing but some power-flickers here at work, but I hear the ED downstairs got 5-6 folks who had to be pulled out of what's left of their houses. |

Whats the movie with a black president of the usa? I think it had a 1 word name that started w/ 'E' but i could be wrong. I have wanted to see this but never could remember the name. Only one off the top of my head was Deep Impact . As for the Mad Max films, according to the canon for the series on... |

On the Battlestar Aspica we throw crzay people out the airlocks. You don't "throw" people out of airlocks as much as "flush"..... (Toilet humour, here we come!! !)

A while back, I ordered a framed piece of trinitite (the glass created from desert sand in New Mexico by the Trinity test) and some other stuff from a scientific supply company. It is (very) slightly radioactive, so it will arrive with the suitable hazmat label on the box. Some of the other stuff wa... |
