			<description><![CDATA[ Hey, it's Me again, you know, The Devil's Advocate? Well, here's some more for ya: Nanotech?? Whoa there! I just got done listening to The Lifeboat Hour from yesterday, 8/19/12, and, at minute 15 or so, we have the latest on NanoTechnology: "The Army has just come out with an anti-suicide nasal spray using nanotechnology...? They got a suicide a day in the Army, highest rate ever, and now they're in je... it's like Brave New.. it's... insane... If you're not on the World News Desk at Collapsenet, you need to be; it will tell you how absolutely bizarre it's getting..." NANOTECH!!! Just more, More and MORE TECHNOLOGY WILL SOLVE AAALL OF OUR PROBLEMS!! So Bring It On, more and more and more. Doesn't it occur, after ALL we have been through on this planet, to QUESTION "Authority," and it's little "Mother's Helper" slavey, Technology? I mean, not that it's alll bad, but, jeeeze, who else here besides me "gets" the Gestalt of this topic, I hope the Hell someone else does... I can just see it, when the blackouts hit, like they did on MCR's last night in Sebastopol, no more "juice" to run all the electronics: "...but, but BUT I WAAAANT All my Electronic Toys!-- GIMEE BACK MY TOYS!!!!"]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[There is a way to effectively clean radiation up, it's called nanotechnology. Just one of many uses. Evidently these man made cells can be designed to latch on to radiated particulates and neutralize/ cancel out the effects. My believe is that it won't be released/used until peak population has come and gone, like many amazing technologies being withheld from the masses.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Scorpio282, thank you for posting the 'Time Lapse Map of Every Nuclear Explosion' video. My five siblings and I were born and raised in Maine, and every one of us has had some form of serious autoimmune disorder, including my brother who died last year at age 46 from his. My older sister and I were born in 1959 and 1961, with 300 and 304 nuclear explosions to date respectively. After us came my brother in 1964 (654), brother in 1970 (1053), brother in 1973 (1185), and sister in 1977 (1415). Additionally, my grandfather, who had never left Maine in his lifetime, died at age 56 in 1965 of pancreatic cancer, and he had also suffered testicular and ocular cancer a few years before his death. If we think the East Coast is somehow immune to the effects of nuclear testing (and other radiation) far to the West, we're sadly mistaken. It's one Earth, a living planet in constant motion, and radiation levels were already way too high very early on in the the testing and use of nuclear weapons. As for Treasure Island, of course the Navy couldn't clean it up. That's the point: There's no way to effectively clean it up. Ever.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I remember reading about the sailors who where sent in to put the fires out on those ships. Direct command from top officer wanted the fires out right away after the blast to keep them from sinking any further for later testing. The scientists knew that was not a good idea but command and I'm sure a few of the research division didn't care about sailors comming back with high ammount of rads they recieved, it was all about testing in the name of war.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[No, it was NOT "drift" that caused the radioactivity on Treasure Island. Here's a direct quote I cut and pasted from the actual article. So read it and see where the radioactivity came from: "The island used the base to repair and salvage vessels exposed to atomic blasts during the 1940s and 1950s. Cannon sights contained radioactive glow-in-the-dark material. A training ship, the USS Pandemonium, was intentionally doused in radiation so sailors could practise scrubbing it. The navy had a radiological 'counting room' to test personnel and equipment for contamination."]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLCF7vPanrY May have something to do with it, I'm pretty sure it is for alot of our atmosphere problems. Watch "Trinity & Beyond: The Atomic Bomb Movie" also to see how reckless science turned down that ugly path.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The only thing I'm surprised about is that this is not a Bay Area News Group article, but even then, I'm really not surprised. The exact kind of situation occurred at the former Hamilton Air Force Base (Little Man made it's way through there on it's way to being dumped on Japan) in southern Novato, the town just north of San Rafael, county seat of Marin County, CA. When the base lands were sold by U.S. Navy to the city of Novato, there were all kinds of reports and testing of water and soils, and all along, a massive cover-up about what's in that soil there. Former base housing saw renovation into condos. The various new housing developments that went in up there all have some kind of clause in the paperwork making it mandatory that any vegetables or fruit grown there must be planted in raised beds. There was a huge fight in the community about the Exchange Triangle, home to the North Bay Children's Center (day care) and the Novato Charter School, where I taught strings. Among the many instances of documented pollutants there was a story of lost hazardous nuclear waste. Someone located the person who put the container of it down a metal pipe deep into the ground. He couldn't remember where the pipe was. The recommendation is that it simply be left there and not "disturbed." It's probably gone down into the mud at the bottom of San Pablo Bay (northern portion of San Francisco Bay). Wherever the military goes, besides leaving citizens all their technological innovation, they leave behind a trail of unmitigated pollution and destruction. They do NOT belong on this planet, if the planet and it's inhabitants actually possess the Will to live.]]></description>
