As Japan and India Forge Economic Ties, a counterweight to China is seen India, which desperately needs more power generation, could be a particularly fertile market for Toshiba, which bought the nuclear power plant manufacturer Westinghouse last year. Any deals between India and Toshiba would be f...

Is there absolutely 100% reuse with 0% wastage? 100% reuse will be there.. but 0% waste will not be there.. but again, future designs can think about 100% reuse again! :wink: :twisted: . BTW, even human beings can't be that efficient to be having 0% waste cycles within themselves. :) .recycle using...

Rye wrote:To put it more simply: Nuclear waste from one power plant is nuclear fuel for another plant. The septic tank analogy falls short in that there is no reuse like in the nuclear fuel cycle.

The way I think is like this, it might be wrong though; and gurus can correct and enlighten me: I have a house with a septic tank that can handle 4 people's load. Now my parents and in-laws both are planning to visit us for say 5 years {it might not be the right thing to do :-) }. Can my existing se...

How well equipped is India to handle additional (in the future) nuclear waste? USA, Russia, Australia...all would be happy to get new business; India would be happy to bolster its power generation; but isn't radioactive waste an issue? Radoactive waste will be an issue, no doubt. The closed fuel cy...

The Left continues to misread local politics. It does not have the guns or goons outside of West Bengal to back its Beijing-inspired agenda. Driven by the Karat duo, the Left foolishly hoped that Sonia Gandhi would support their move to depose Manmohan Singh. Mummmmmmmmmmmy....ouch ouch ouch. Chine...

150 million holding 800+ million by leash. What is the guarantee that the word "partition" is not raised again within the next 5 years! The political parties have already created the "logical partitioning".

So when the Muslims say British took Indian from the Muslims and after the British left, Muslims shuold have been the rightful rulers of India, they are lying. Irrespective of them lying or not; that is a weird logic. What anoints them as "rightful rulers" of India? They forget Hindus wer...

I am the original author of that statement, and I stand by it. Name one Paki that has built a Fortune 500 level company anywhere in the world (Illicit drug syndicates do not count). :) I have no desire to bat for the enemies. All I am saying is that there are smart people all around. They might not...

although I'm sure he is from the Indian side of the LOC since nobody who grew up on the Pakistani side would have the smarts to become the CEO of Etahn Allen. Let us not give too much or too little credit to the enemies, but let us acknowledge that there can be people with "smarts" throug...

B ) Did the order to do so came from the top political leadership? In which case are we telling the US that we can hit them if we choose to do so?
Don't you think USA military/leadership would have already known that?

Agni scares Garuda

Now this would have been a nice headline: Agni scares Garuda. :lol: Subheading: Indra and Vishnu to look into the matter. Though the reports do not mention passengers making a visual contact, it would have been cool/awesome and petrifying at the same time to see a missile streaking over the sky thro...
