A pyromaniac's Rube Goldberg chain reaction

TerovThePyro says...

Very neat video. Some of the legs of the machine seemed to be very chancy, such as the rotating wheel powered by firecrackers and the boat in water. Glad to see that they went off.

However, what makes this a Goldberg machine? If that was the end (as it seemed to be), it never performed a 'simple task in a complex/extravagant way', which is how I always heard Goldberg machines explained.

Anyway, still gets a vote.

Why the earth is not 6000 years old

Went to college with Al. He was always hilarious and a good guy, this video is very much in his style of person - such that I think it is great editing and deserves an upvote. While its true that a bit of polish in places might have helped, I believe it is still a great watch.

Knock them creationist straw men down (and thanks for having good facts Al.)

Tour of the depths of the Chernobyl reactor and sarcophagus

TerovThePyro says...

Pho3nix, I believe that is German, not Russian.

As everyone has stated, the Chernobyl disaster was caused by gross misconduct on the part of a Soviet nuclear engineer. While I can understand people's fears about this occurring somewhere in the U.S., we are much more rigorous with standards. We don't have the Simpson's nuke plants hanging around.

As someone pro-nuke, I second Gluonium's post - we need to use the material better in the reactors. As with any technology, the old should be updated/replaced with the new (with breeder reactors hopefully). France is a great example of a country successfully using nuclear power.

For those who are strongly anti-nuke, what alternatives do you propose? A coal burning plan produces quite nasty stuff (when left unfiltered). Natural gas is better, but not great either. Honestly, I wish we could have green energy but it does not produce the amounts necessary. We should not keep spending money on nukes if we are not adequately funding future research into fusion/improved green power.

Great find Gluonium.
