I still think he's a closet anti-america muslim (as opposed to the good upstanding muslims) with an agenda to destroy this country..... Remember what his "minister" (more closet folks) use to say ? **** America? Worst president we ever had. We'll just have to wait and see what he does and where he goes once he leaves office.... yeah, I know politics... but he just keeps screwing our country.

Humf. Why haven't all da nu bunch of repugs turned all this crap around by now? Maybe, just maybe because we do not have a gubment any more. The corporations control this country and are making all the rules.

Darn rhyolite comes in some crazy patterns, this stuff is so different and so green. The toilet fragment, ya know what they say in the south "I wouldn't have told that". LOL. Bet you caught hell.

Conservationists killed the Challenger crew by forcing NASA to change their o rings, . . . the list goes on forever on their screw ups! Sorry, Dave but that's total urban legend... The legend faults the asbestos sealant, not the o-rings. The o-rings were indeed the problem but not due to a change in the material used. www.nbcnews.com/id/11031097/ns/technology_and_science-space/t/myths-about-challenger-shuttle-disaster/#.VLlgitLF_AkThe day the shuttle exploded was 10 days after I started working at the rubber company I still work for today. I already had about 4 years experience in polymers and had worked with fluoropolymers like the viton used for the shuttle o-rings. They were the true culprit of the disaster, not the asbestos sealant. A by product of vulcanizing viton is good old H2O water and it must be removed by a postcuring process that requires a 12 hour stepped cycle. Any exposure to moisture before use like the weather conditions before the launch means the boosters should have been disassembled and the o-rings either replaced with dry ones or the existing o-rings re-postcured (dried) A few years after the disaster I hand built a set of custom viton seals for the leaded observation windows of a nuclear facility of some sort, possibly a particle accelerator that was never completed. I didn't want to end up being connected to another viton related disaster so I spent a lot of time in research before taking the job on. Thanks for your expertise and explanation!

its just amazing what I have learned on this forum. So Many threads are absolutely convoluted from their original topic, yet they continue to fascinate.
