This reply to you is just too funny:

The quote from the website plainly says that if there is enough uranium concentrated in one spot a chemical reaction is likely to occur. We believe that that is how the sun produces light. There is no assembly required here. As I said, your link was a plain lie (if you bothered to read it).

Not one, but TWO scientific gaffes in a single reply by the Clown Prince of Scientific Bloopers and Blunders, G3k!

Fission is, or course, a nuclear process, not a "chemical reaction." And, as well you know, the sun produces light by fusion of light nuclei, not fission of Uranium.

Just when I begin to think that he's made every numb-skulled blunder any single human being is capable of, he amazes me yet again with another stunner, or in this case, a matched pair.

But it was close enough for creation science.

We've spent about 2.5 years arguing with an utterly, totally, completely uneducated person. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

We might as well mention that, on top of the stunning factual errors, g3k was originally calling for examples of "matter self-assembling without human intervention" but is disallowing any proffered example because there is "no [human] assembly required."

The usual semantic nonsense from evolutionists and a plain lie. Nuclear fision or fusion is a property of the chemical element uranium. Call it what you will, it requires no assembly. I also never mentioned whether the reaction is fusion or fission, so that "refutation" is a total lie since it implies I said something I never said. So much your nonsense. The fact remains the example of Dr. Stochastic was no example of self assembly, but a good example of the evolutionist practice of link-o-lying.

After the Great Flood was over, Noah gently eased the Ark down on top of a Turkish mountain range. Once everything was secured, he got off and personally supervised the release of the animals on board. As each pair was released from the hold to go hopping, crawling and fluttering away, Noah said to them, "Go forth and multiply!"

At one point, a pair of snakes came slithering down the ramp together. Noah addressed them as he had all the others: "Go forth and multiply!" The snakes looked at one another in embarassment, and then replied, "We can't. We're adders."

Well, this set Noah to thinking. He bid the snakes to wait there for a little while. Then he went down to the hold, gathered up his carpentry tools (left over from the big Ark-building endeavor 40 days and nights ago, I suppose), and then set off into the forest. He returned later dragging along a bunch of fallen logs.

Then there was furious activity: Noah was sawing, planing, hammering away at the logs. When he was finished, he presented to the snakes a newly built, rough-hewn table. Then he said to them again, "Go forth and multiply!"

"But we're adders!" the snakes moaned. Noah said, "Yes, but I've just built you a log table!"
