His posts #92 and #84 both claim, in wild-eyed error, that Tritium is an atomic trigger.
The correct answer, and this is **not** something that nuclear experts would err on, is that Tritium is an atomic booster.
...and the kid would still be here if he hadn't used multiple ID's to spout his same misinformation (note the deleted posts).
Now he's gone, and Free Republic is that much better off without him. No doubt he'll go attempt to spread fear and nonsense elsewhere, now. His type never learn, never change, never grow up.
What surprises me, however, is that you bought his nonsense about gun assemblies not needing triggers, Tritium being a trigger, or whatever else it was that he said that you defended as being correct.
Google is your friend. Use it. The kid was wrong. You don't have to be.
Hey, you can sit all day and argue about whether he was right or wrong and I wouldn't know which was true or not. Can you only argue the point with someone who has already admitted they don't know squat about nuclear boom booms? I'm no challenge to you on the subject so you must feel confident about anything you say.
You said -- "What surprises me, however, is that you bought his nonsense about gun assemblies not needing triggers, Tritium being a trigger, or whatever else it was that he said that you defended as being correct."
"Big Boom" is "Big Dead" -- triggers or no triggers.
What more do you need to know?
