Wait I am not the only person to have seen SLC Punk? It is one of my favorite movies of all time.

 

never seen the movie, but i had the soundtrack on tape iirc. lol

 

Same here, it's one of the few movies I actually still own. Since before my divorce, I've gone from like 400+ DVD/Blu-Rays, down to about 25.

 

Yes, but there is no way can it ladder in an FD unless its a little Giant lol

 

 

i thought prisoners weren't supposed to have shoelaces.

 

Imagine a room full of 100 people with 100 dollars each. With every tick of the clock, every person with money gives a dollar to one randomly chosen other person. After some time progresses, how will the money be distributed?

They aren't supposed to as far as I know. I've seen them wearing slippers like Vans, Crocs, and shower slippers everytime I've seen them.











Everyone knows shoelaces are a problem. Well almost everyone, apparently.

 

 

 

 

Hmmm. Calculations are suspect.

Also how many people are evacuated if a wind turbine fails?

 

Depends on location, same as with a nuclear plant.

 

There has been a lot of discussions on line over that meme. Generally, there are a lot of negative environmental impacts of the total life cycle of wind turbines.

I used to work for West Texas Utilities when the Federal Fuel Use Act forced us to build our first coal-fired power station. Previously we had been natural gas (including one of first combined cycle plants built in the 1960's). I was impressed by the massive difference in the local fuel processing differences between the two:

Gas yard:



And no slag, fly-ash disposal, or SO4 scrubbers on the back end.

Coal yard:



Including acres of storage in case of a shortage of supply. For the gas plant, we had a couple of tanks of fuel oil for curtailment periods. Rarely used.

Coal Processing pulverizers (along with complex burners, pneumatic conveyors, "clinker" cleaning in the boilers, waste disposal, etc.)

 

Gas and coal plants burn more often, but it occurs within the boilers where it's supposed to.

 

in case you ever needed to cut a bird of prey into two:

 

Makes me proud to be an Albertan. Sniff!

 

My turgidness knows no bounds.

 

Agreed. The figures given are technically accurate, but fail to account for capacity factor, which is around 90% for most nuclear generating stations, and 30-35% for most US wind-turbine installations. So multiply the 260 mi^2 number by three for a true estimate of overall land-use-to-energy-production ratios.


Also, I am officially a suburbanite:
