[Mudpuppy]

oh they are on to bigger and better things now like haarp..

i actually met a guy that was a tester for a nuclear bomb.. his entire company died during the vietnam war i believe (can't remember if it was vietnam or korea) and when they got back the military was like oh shit i thought everyone died where did you guys come from we have a special job for you... so i guess like the 5 of them went out in the desert.. 1 or 2 were like 50 yards from detonation.. 1 or 2 more farther than that.. then finally he was the farthest one back - not sure how far back.. they detonated the bomb and he was the lone survivor.. human guinea pigs.. didn't we put people in prison for this type of thing? (circa wwii)

Yep............But unfortunately it's considered "gay" or "metro" to analyze ingredients and veer towards caution.

nah i don't ride buses very often.. it was actually someone i worked with and a credible source.. really wasn't the kind of guy to make shit up.. maybe it was bullshit but it sounded true..

Well even a conventional artillery round could kill someone standing 50 yards away. So I'm not sure why the military would deliberately tell someone to stand 50 yards away from a nuclear bomb.

i don't know the distance(s) they were standing or the specifics i just remember the general story.. i thought it was interesting.. i wasn't looking to split hairs over the fucking story.. thanks for your valuable input and contribution there monday morning quarterback.. go be useless somewhere else..

So you don't know the specifics, yet you still chose to pontificate like you knew what you were talking about and say 50 yards without telling us you didn't remember and that it was just a wild-ass guess.........ok

Over time the tits get bigger, the fish get bigger and put up bigger fights and the near misses get nearer.
They were actually 500miles away...
and stoned out of there mind.

They would if they wanted to get rid of an idiot.
