Well, I did say Multi Billionaire.
I could always hire an entire Crew with H1-B Visas to save on Operational Costs.
CNN will take this as fact, and since it happened in 1986, they’ll blame Reagan.
Yep, Reagan’s increased military spending forced the Soviets to cut safety budgets for their nuclear plants. It’s so obvious now.
....”Russia is like Mexico...always blames the US”.....
Rather like the US always blames Russia.”
You should go to Russia and live there awhile.
Russia actually was out of US radar for a good while following the Cold War sans a few lingering stereotypical tropes in films and things. This upset Russians even more. Better to be talked about, even in a bad light (especially when perceived as powerful) than not talked about at all and seen as irrelevant.
Russians tend to be natural-born contrarians.
They would certainly get more left coast believers if they did just that. They could probably even get loads of funding if they declared that as an intention up front.
I just watched an episode of Abandoned on the SCI channel a couple of hours ago (Sat. 6/8).
It was about a huge radar array in Russia that was only 7 miles from Chernoble. It was 500 ft. high and over a half mile long, designed to bounce waves to the Earth’s isophere and back. ...It was nicknamed the Woodpecker because its usage caused a tapping sound on all communication and computer devises.
Computers at that time required people to decipher the meaning of what they were seeing. ...It was proposed that the constant tapping from the radar array actually interrupted the data being monitored by the Chernoble computers that led to the explosion.
Ooops
devises = devices
Living in Russia or not wouldn’t make a difference in how some view Russia, even for those who have lived there or do so now. Political opinions are what they are.
Facts are facts.
