2099 Opening Reboot
I'd be down with a Space 1999 reboot, but the fundamental premise of a nuclear explosion pushing the moon out of orbit and then somehow to another star system for a new episode each week is so ridiculous l it would have to be replaced, but by that point it's hardly a Space 1999 reboot. I guess you could have the same basic setup with a moon base but use wormholes or string magic or quantum whatever and that might be okay. A show taking place on a moon base that keeps jumping randomly through alternate dimensions could be kind of interesting for a while maybe. Like Sliders, except they take the moon base with them and have Eagles to fly around in.
Neil deGrasse Tyson on a Dystopic Future
Speaking of the world ending in a nuclear explosion: almost happened. That's what, half a dozen times where a single individual postponed nuclear armageddon?

Not the Largest Man Made Non Nuclear Explosion
Halifax has you beat.
The Halifax Explosion occurred on the morning of Thursday, December 6, 1917. SS Mont-Blanc, a French cargo ship fully laden with wartime explosives, collided with the Norwegian vessel SS Imo in the Narrows, a strait connecting the upper Halifax Harbour to Bedford Basin. Approximately twenty minutes later, a fire on board the French ship ignited her volatile cargo, causing a cataclysmic explosion that devastated the Richmond District of Halifax. Approximately 2,000 people were killed by debris, fires, and collapsed buildings, and it is estimated that nearly 9,000 others were injured.The blast was the largest man-made explosion prior to the development of nuclear weapons with an equivalent force of roughly 2.9 kilotons of Trinitrotoluene (TNT). In a meeting of the Royal Society of Canada in May 1918, Dalhousie University's Professor Howard L. Bronson estimated the blast at some 2.4 million kilograms of high explosive.

Indiana Jones - The Refrigerator Scene
Do even they say when they film these scenes "this is just unbelievable guys!"
It's ok for a person to survive a car crash without a scratch but a fucking nuclear explosion?
Indiana Jones - The Refrigerator Scene
This might be a dupe.. http://videosift.com/video/Indiana-Jones-nuclear-explosion-in-fridge-scene is dead though - but how many really silly Indiana Jones fridge nuclear scenes are there??
Michelle Bachmann chooses Theocratic Rule
I see a bright future ahead, bright like a nuclear explosion when religious fanatics get hold of the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
Or as my new official motto puts it: I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
Nuclear expert warns Fukushima is "Chernobyl on steroids"
I like how when the reported asked if the reactor was like a nuclear bomb the "expert" failed to address that you don't get a nuclear explosion in a meltdown. Pretty much the worst case scenario is that the fuel rods melt, pool on the bottom and bore their way through containment, through the concrete and into the earth. That would certainly cause very long term environmental damage.
There has clearly been some escape of radioactive material. I mean, the rods were being cooled by pumping water onto them, and god knows where that water went afterwards. The rods were also exposed for some time, radioactive gases will also have escaped, but to compare that to chernobyl is just stupid. Chernobyl reactor core was blown clean open while the reactor was running. The nuclear reaction actually continued after containment was broken. The fuel was exposed to the air and caught fire pumping radioactive gases and ash high into the atmosphere. Pripyat was evacuated too late. I have a hard time seeing how Fukashima is worse than Chernobyl...
Long story short, this interview is a joke.

Hey, no need to apologize. First, it wasn't my video that you duped - it was Crake's. Second, accidents happen. That's why they put erasers on pencils, right?
The reason your embed wasn't recognized as a dupe is that your embed came from YouTube, while Crake's came from blip.tv. Two different beasts. These things happen.
I hope you're doing well. Take care.In reply to this comment by persephone:
Hey Kronos, didn't know it was adupe, sorry. Why would the sift not recognise the embed and let me post it?
