Yeah, I'm just broken hearted.

Brings to mind the movie K19 Widowmaker. Loved their crew-centric emergency procedures. hahaha

I am fine with geography. So I don't need to implement your kind remark.

So, what's the Norwegians position from your US point of view concerning this little radiation event?

BTW You have a nice safety distance right there...

If you would pay attention, I wasnt speaking for Norway.

I spoke for myself. I spoke based on the article. Now, if there had been a nuclear incident that would affect others, I would have felt differently. But that's not the case now is it ?

So pardon me if I am not heartbroken that the Russian navy has had one of their major ships damaged by their own poor maintenance.

Considering that the US space programme is very much reliant on Russia, such flippancy seems a little short-sighted.

Sure hope the sub wasn't hit by the Russian probe they couldn't put in orbit and is falling back to Earth.
Be a shame.

I didn't know Russian submarines had anything to do with the Russian space program.

I do believe, and Dogsbd will surely set me straight on this, that SpaceX, with NASA guidance, will place a payload in orbit next month and will dock with the ISS.

I *think* that before the Russian elections, that we will have an answer.

u the guy that was exonerated after leaving his adopted son in the car?

Turn off O'Reiley and use your brain. No one is financing that junk anymore, only lining their own pockets cuz they'd rather invest it in your Chase Bank rather than look for someone to nuke. No one gives a #%&*$# anymore about your subs. And if you reduce that budget the people might actually stop losing their jobs...
