The French H-bum tests are evidently much admired herre. They did, as u say, blow up several islands in the Mururoa Atoll in the 1970s, in the 1980s (remember the Greenpeace boat that was sunk) and then most outrageously, in 1998. What exactly did this do for France? OK, it keeps Belgium and Algeria...

Prem: I would argue (being R-Guman-tative) that new clear bum testing is a has-been topic, best left in 1998. What was demonstrated then needs to go into limited-edition production, and now the delivery vehicles are also coming into production. Time to move on. Look to the Bright Future. Wear dark g...

I am all for spreading knawlidj etc. as long as it is open-literature stuff that illuminates the general public about the general issues, or in the case of tutorial explanations, they stick to civilian nuclear power, and I don't mean civilian in the BakPaki sense. :eek: Otherwise, whether there is d...

lakshmic: After perusing the thread in the Trashcan archive and this one (but apparently missing the pleasantries between some experts) I still maintain that the decision is a simple one, and it is based on logic, not technical intricacies. Suppose for a moment that India conducts another 5, or, say...

Thanks for explaining the Raje govt's role in the Gajjar riots. Glad to hear that - maybe there IS some hope for them. Basically I admire V. Raje a great deal, I just wish they stick to their principles and get the competence to back them up like Modi does. For instance, what has happened with their...

I never heard of that one. Pakis and BDs are special in that they cannot apply for OIC even if their parents were born in India, but that's all. Country of birth has nothing to do with visa processing, only passport does. Except British Passports which don't imply full British citizenship because th...

Dear Sanku: There is a difference between recording the first NEWS of specific facts in an attack - and believing the first Blame Game accusation of responsibility. It is the former that I recommended. Because the reports will be then filtered through the Lens of Acceptable Facts To Fit Accepted Con...

The Big One hits Szechuan. Last time Szechaun got hit, they said only minor damage, and only 4 dead. They meant Poliburo members. Some 400,000,000,000 died. This one is VERY bad - the death toll STARTS at 10,000-plus. That means that in a week it will become 200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 using...

And as for the Indian Navy firing upon the US fleet.... AllahoAkbar! I don't believe the US fleet actually came anywhere close to where they could evacuate anyone. The Pakis surrendered while the USS Enterprise was still way out south of the Andamans, I believe. True that many IN and IAF pilots were...

The argument that India need not be less PRC-friendly than the US, does not wash. It was not the US that the Tibetan refugees fled to, and it was not the US that was then invaded by the communists. It is not the US where Buddhism was born, and it is not the US where the Free Tibetan government resid...
