  1. It's right there in the opening post????
  2. Technically though Nitroglycerin was responsible for the death of Alfred Nobel's brother Emil and not Dynamite. Nitroglycerin was created by an Italian chemist, who was very clear quite how dangerous it was. Nobel knew of the dangers, but produced it anyway in the families armaments factory as it was clearly superior to gunpowder. There were numerous accidents with liquid Nitroglycerin including the death of his brother, and restrictions on it's use and transport in liquid form, which pushed Nobel to find a safer way of storing and transporting it.
  3. Ironically he was prescribed his own creation later in life to treat a heart condition.
  4. They also don't directly generate many jobs. The places are huge, they suck up tons of power but in the end the entire site is managed by a very small number of people.
  5. Another thing to file under the umbrella of Racism.
  6. Was visited in 2017 by 28dayslater, sad to see there's no difference between then and now. Report - - The Citadel Salvation Army Sheffield 2017 | Other Sites | 28DaysLater.co.uk
  7. How can you have something against Dynamite? What a weird thing to dislike.
  8. People need somewhere to live, so yes they need to rebuild. How they handle future fire seasons, perhaps that will be the main issue.
  9. Probably because the manor in which he was caught, by online groups. Can very quickly get into problems with libel if you start pushing out stories based on what they're saying without anything to corroborate. He has been arrested, so the safer way to handle it is to wait for the Police to officially charge him. Then you've got a solid story based on facts.
  10. Going to be difficult if more grooming gangs pop up, similar to what we've already seen in Rotherham, Rochdale and such.
  11. Cryptocurrency, what a total waste of resources.
  12. Not California
  13. I like the assumption that Canada would be a single state, should it join. and that all of Canada would want to join in the first place.
  14. or let it burn down, maybe the sight of that is what's needed to kick them into action?
  15. They do, but mostly for cooling I believe. So they should put back alot of what they draw out. Chip foundries do use alot of water, and there has been a huge push to increase domestic chip production resulting in new facilities being built.
