My son just got a female, mostly Lab puppy for his two girls and she has the burrowing habit. His wife is getting very perturbed with the pup and it is becoming a rather large issue, pup insists on doing it over and over in about the same spot.
Plays hell with mom's plantings!
OK, TGS! Hard words, and probably true, bub! Let's hope that ours are the first to go, and that that they work properly!
I don't want the Pakis' or the Indians to start flinging their bad-boys around!
And I sure-as-hell don't want the Israelis doing nuke-testing on the Iraqis or Syrians!
I say: "When it comes to Nuclear-Bombing, leave it to the Pros!"
In my perfect-world, Mecca would have been a pile of radioactive slag on September 12, 2001, and the Islamomaniacs worldwide would still be digging holes to hide in!
It's Islam, kids, and we're gonna have to kill them!
Yeah, I know, Jim, but so do you! You know I love you, pal.........Best FRegards
This caught my eye: In some non-nuclear tests the weapon's exterior casing has melted from the friction. In tests to date, weapons have penetrated only a few dozen feet.
Seems like something like kevlar encasing the bomb's outer stucture with a super sprayed on Teflon material might work. Teflon coated bullets basically run out of energy instead of being stopped by a barrier when they strike a target.
When,we retrofitted our Church a few years ago for the new earthquake codes, the new outer shell may be more important to saving the structure in an earthquake than the new steel supports we added.
An oldie...
Thanks. It's from 2002 -- let's hope they have some of them ready by now.
