Oh dear

Quote:
The recipe is highly detailed and plainly ridiculous. The prospective bomb maker is instructed to transform uranium gas into liquid by ‘subjecting it to pressure’, adding: ‘You can use a bicycle pump for this.’

The instructions continue: ‘Then make a simple home centrifuge. Fill a standard-size bucket one-quarter full of liquid uranium hexafluoride.

‘Attach a 6ft rope to the bucket handle. Now swing the rope (and attached bucket) around your head as fast as possible. Keep this up for about 45 minutes.


You'd have to be seriously fit/dedicated/stupid to even attempt to swing a bucket full of stuff around your head for 45 minutes. I've just tried it with some water, and lasted about 90 seconds, before i got The Dizzies and fell over.

EDIT: In teh interest of safety, ensure that the handle of the bucket is firmly affixed to teh bucket itself, otherwise pretend radioactive stuffs ends up in next doors kitchen, through their closed patio doors.

I was driving beside 4 flatbeds carrying tanks of uranium hexafluoride this morning. It happens more often than I'd like. They come from Springfield* Nuclear plant in Preston.


*I shit you not.

That's not a nuke plant. Isn't it a fuel production station?

I'll ignore the quote fail, but yeah it's a processing plant not a reactor.


We have the lovely Sellafield to the North of us for that worry :S

Here's a non-Daily Mail link:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree ... guantanamo

To be fair, a Google for "H bomb instructions" will probably bring up more jokes than serious guidelines. Doesn't mean he *wasn't* looking for ways to blow us all up...

The Daily Mail is defending a non-white man who was accused of TRRRZM.

The world has gone mad.
