we have a broken arrow

We’d all cry of we knew the truth.

I have a friend who works for a weapons manufacturer.  A few years back, his company were working on some new sonar system.  During tests in sealed tanks, they noticed that an odd substance was forming in the water.
Had it tested, turned out that the sonar was causing copper-cyanide to form - fairly poisonous stuff.
The research was then passed to another department to develop it for use in behind enemy lines situations - i.e. dumped in some poor country’s reservoirs.

That’ll be nice when it’s ready then.

That films awesome. I’d take a shot in the mouth from christian slater.

so since 1940 the only have 50+ accidents (that they know about)...i dont think thats much

My ole man was in the Royal Navy and he told me that neer Faslane (a not very secret naval base where the Trident submarines hang out) there is a mountain range. During the cold war the British government hollowed the range out and stored pretty much all our spare nukes there. 1 direct hit from a ruskie missile and bye, bye to the North.

Don’t tell anyone I told you
