I hope not. If the tank explodes, it'll be a real mess with all that sand!

Trinity site is open this weekend. I'm bummed that I'm missing it again. They open it for tours for one day in Oct and one day in April.

Hiya, XGI!

A turd is a turd in my book. The fact that it was human just increases the "ick" factor.

Worse yet, with my luck, I would have been trailing my hand in the water at that very moment. Eeeew!

I think we should throw Teddy Kennedy in there. Sharks will eat, perish of alcohol poisoning and Ted is crab food.

Everyone wins!

Yup, we splurged a little and got the DVD last weekend... the short is on the 2nd disk (along with a commentary and a short documentary about the guy who wrote and directed the short.)

Liability, I'm sure. I doubt radiations levels would be a series problem, but like with asbestos, hysteria makes lawyers rich...

I've heard the same thing about Venice, though I've also heard that they've started cleaning things up a bit. I'll wait.

I'm more into Rome, for the history parts, but then out to the coast for Naples or Palermo. The Company is thinking about an office in Milan. That wouldn't suck, really. :-)

I'd like to do a moot of some kind some time at Gettysburg, which I visited two (!) years ago.

1. It's not vey spendy (if you don't mind camping or, at most, cabins).

2. A coupla months in advance is enough. Perhaps too much.

3. Meals are your most spendy item. A lot less so if you get 'em at the groshry instead of touristy restaurants (tho you want at least one meal at this one particular place...)

4. Age (small, large or super-sized) isn't an issue.

5. Who needs to pay for a tour guide when you have meeeee!

It's a terrific movie. It was the first time I'd seen it since I missed it in the theatres.

The short was great. I coulda watched more of that story.

Brilliant! (and that's right close by!)

May I recommend Spring or Fall? Summer gets vey hot - even though that's when the re-enactments are.

*shudder*

That was less of a turd and more of a spray. The goes under the title of "poop is poop".

I did it in May. Dunno if I have pix in electronic form (rummage rummage)

I still use my favorite Pentax P3n for the important stuff.
