From FB group Orange Talk April 3 That huge tank has got what looks like a refrigeration unit on its end. There are some chemical plants that use those for storing chemicals that are very dangerous. Decades ago we had a bad windstorm and the power went out in the industrial area where the railroad

From FB group transistor radios Mar 29 Lin Holcomb One never knows what secrets the US government has hidden. They could have some other plans for using the WWV stations. Decades ago I worked for a radio engineer, and we had a frequency counter traceable to NBS (now NIST). He noticed that the frequency of

From https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2016/07/indian-point-nuclear-power-new-york-documentary/ “You traveled to Fukushima to film. What was your big takeaway from there?” “I found it incredibly chilling to be there. The plant itself is very strange. You don’t smell or see or touch radiation, so you don’t know.

From FB group Orange Talk I’d like to tell you a true story. Back before Direct deposit, we (SAC) had to set up check handout tables for the students on Financial Aid. We had four lines, A thru G, H thruvM, etc. Each had an accordion folder with the checks sorted alphabetically. One day I
