@Peter As am I. Much of what he told me of his time in Germany just sounds strange in hindsight.
I remember being in school in the US in the 80's and being told that the Russians might obliterate us at any moment many times.

what shall i say ? as a berliner, we always knew if the soviets really wanted to invade us, they just had to take the tram (s-bahn) ! :)

@lillymunster we grew up with sarcasm.

@Edano living with the boogeyman over our heads growing up even if it was largely just propaganda does something to your attitude about life. Sort of a live for today we might get squashed like bugs tomorrow.

@Peter yes of course they did. the cold war was a big bad game. they had more spies than secrets.

@Pedro - awesome work! Grabbed that all and added it to the notes on Thorium from the other day. Elaine found some questionable dealings in the Uk among these people involved in thorium promotion. The whole thing is just really quite the scam
by lillymunster 11/21/2011 2:39:37 AM

those facts you bring up really are impossible for them to overcome
by lillymunster 11/21/2011 2:39:57 AM

My understanding is they do not have a way yet to run just thorium, it has to be mixed with other fuels or that other fuel has to be used as feed for the thorium so it doesn't remove uranium or plutonium out of the picture

I found their US company on the NASDAQ and it has steadily lost money since their IPO

@Pedro Jesus Ironically the people who are die hard fans of this never have technical answers. They tell anyone who criticizes Sorensen etc.'s claims that they don't know what they are talking about or are so wrong they don't know where to start. :-)

I Nuclear Power Plant
reached the ocean 2000 kilometers from the plant and 5000 meters deep one month after the accident. It is considered that airborne cesium particles fell on the ocean surface, and sank as they were attached to the bodies of dead plankton. The survey result was announced in a symposium held on November 20 in Tokyo.
They have known for months and announced it now in a symposium
