I have only watched a small bit, but it looks interesting!




PS comforting to know that if we have a third world war, this thing can, (if they can find more food) can run around for 20 years, and destroy another continent.

We don't want those pesky domesticated Apes getting a foothold!

    I heard the Israelis have at least 3 nuclear subs patrolling the worlds oceans also-- but I think they won't confirm it.

    Of course the Russians and Chinese have theirs.

    I'm not sure about France but I'm also wondering if the Brits have a few nuclear subs out there too.

    India is in the nuclear club but do they have any subs? And I doubt Pakistan has any subs.

    It is very comforting to know that there is a ship out there that can destroy a continent.

    First, I know that nothing can go wrong with that amount of power in one place...and I don't live on a continent...so I'm safe.

    What if they're not stars? What if they are holes poked in the top of a container so we can breath?

    tagiscom,

    Watched the 2nd video all the way through. Again what a history lesson.
    Also shows how some of the weapons and technology now are routine
    for our time period.

    Thanks again for posting both of the videos.

      Hmmm, without going over to Wikipedia, l think that l live on a continent.


      Oh, well, at least we wouldn't have to live in radioactive citys, with smarta*** apes nibbling at our feet!


      Stinkin, apes!

      Quite welcome Ken, yes, the v2 rocket propelled space plane was the scariest!

      If they had developed that one quickly enough, (basically a poor mans intercontinental, ballistic missile) they could have won the war.

      Especially if the launch platforms were mobile?


      And for the record they did fool around with antigravity, or a special rotating solid, liquid, that displayed weightless effects, but apart from giving everyone a splitting headache, not much else.

      A bit like super conducting material, opens the door, but not much else!
