I grew up in mendham. the town has completely gone to sh;t and you could not pay me to live there.

nothing is selling. took my parents 3yrs to sell their home and they got out pre-lehman..thank God.

I have friends who pay 50k/yr in property tax and they can’t even go to Kings supermarket for milk with out getting harassed by the nazi-cop shop that tickets every towny for 1mph over or a cell phone dig…etc.

The town councils of Mendham Borough or Twp, COULD NOT GIVE A RATS A$$ about the taxpayer/citizen… they raise taxes every year and piss money away like it grows on trees.

the small biz’s in town are all suffering and sales are down. the old school middle class residents of the 1980s are nearly gone. all you have left are delusional yuppies and uber rich.

there are no normal people left.

another radical change is that 20yrs ago, you’d see ONE dem political sign in the entire town…there were dozens of Obama signs, as the EssixCountyFication of Morris County continues, the explosion of facist, tax and spend politics infects Mendham and westward.

ya’ll need to wake up and get out of NJ…it is the Titanic and it is going down fast.

fire,

yes i agree,
but it went kabooom because it was a positive unstable reaction which will accelerate and runaway if not properly controlled. A negatively unstable reaction would have simply shut down due to a increasing temperature decreasing the rate of reaction until it became self limiting and shut down without any intervention from the operators.

The accident was a culmination of poor design choices.

On the night of the reactor accident at Chernobyl, the primary and secondary b safety systems were shut down and the reactor went unstable. being positively unstable by design, it went kaboom
————————-
Not exactly, but very close. After they pulled out emergency and manual graphite sticks, while pumping double flow of water in order to stir the reactor to the half nominal power, they cut the auxulary pump – that’s what made it kaboom

Forgot to mention the city I was born. Once a year my father, being a dean of a university, had to order windows clean up. Guess with what? Hydrogen fluoride!
In Donbass area (Ukraine now) I guess it was worse in 80s the it’s now in China.

anyone catch the Children of Chernobyl on HBO? I’ll take hampster wheels over nuke energy. Didn’t change my mind, just strengthened my resolve.

Saw that. But do you know what actually happened there? They were doing a very stupid experiment. I know a very good site build in FLASH showing what’s hapened in real time. If anybody intrested I think I can translate it for you. My family moved in a city which was 60 miles from Chernobyl in 1986, my father came there in April (blowout happened it May), and the rest of the family had no choice but to move in August. And I’m still kicking :)

here is another sign showing that this recession is a mild one if it ever happened: soon after 5:00 pm, this board becomes a ghost city each day.

Trust me, it was one the most difficult purchases I ever made in my life. :P

Same here, then I realized that $200-$300 loss in 2-3 years is not such a big deal. Quality and handling is amazing

A large Tread Mill, placed at the border, and powered by incoming illegals, could provide a never ending supply of cheap electricity. A second Tread Mill at the border, for captured exiting illegals, could provide an additional small amount of cheap electricity. Those making 100 round trips could gain automatic citizenship.
