My bank has a good one - you have to supply three pairs of associated words or phrases

It's upto you what to use as questions and answers

What if the 8year old kid died of heavy metal poisoning because we stripped mined his water supply for coal? Or he lived downstream from an oil sands fracking plant?

Or he lived in Bangladesh and global warming caused his land to flood.

Or he live din Africa and starved because we pay more for corn to make biofuel than he can afford.

Or he lived in the middle east on top of our oil and we had to drop some laser guided democracy on him?

Oh my god they had a nuclear accident in Japan - we must shut down our nuclear reactors and instead pump out many millions of tons of dangerous radioisotopes and chemical poisons from new coal plants instead.

It's standard knee jerk procedure. We had a rail accident (the first in 10years) so the reaction was to close a bunch of inter city lines for months while they checked everything. Where did all those extra travellers go? onto the roads!

I hope the government doesn't hear about the problems with Toyota in america - they would then ban ABS and give everybody Tiger tanks to commute on.

But enough about your own problems - how is Japan?

People have a 1/x scale with distance. When I lived in California my grandmother in the UK would call everytime there was a hurricane in Florida.

You can't really expect professional TV reporters to be any better informed than my 80year old grandmother.

There is less radiation risk from normally operating German nuclear power stations than there is from all the radionuclides the extra coal burning stations will emit.

Although since Germany hit on the idea of exporting it's dirty coal to Poland, burning it there and importing the power they will be east europeans getting the cancer.

Towns like Picher, Oklahoma, will still be toxic when the sun goes out.

Radioactive Ceasium and Strontium are a pain for a few decades - lead, mercury and cadmium are for ever.

That's including 0.01% lifetime extra cancer risk * 100M people

If you are going to do that then a single cigarette ad on a formula 1 car kills more people than Hiroshima.

Depends on their surface reflectivity.

A few 10s of European people die at chernobyl = crisis, ban nuclear now. A few 10,000s of Indians die at Bhopal = so what.

Of course sometimes you have to be a little more discriminating. A damn breaks in China killing poor yellow people = so what. A reactor accident in Japan affecting rich yellow people = crisis.

Strangely 1800 people being killed on trains in a Tsunami doesn't seem to matter. Germany hasn't decided to cancel ICE services between Munich and Wien until the track can be made Tsunami proof.

I just meant that financially MMOs are much more attractive for the publisher than a single player console game.

The cost of the infrastructure servers isn't high compared to the 1000s of man years salary to build a major game, and with cloud services it can scale so you only pay as new customers come in.

MMOs tend to be older players, mostly male in 30s. These are the audience that can pay $30-60/month without noticing. The Teenagers tend to be casual gamers and a bigger market for phones/consoles - especially 1-2 player games.

Single player pays once, MMO player pays every month

1981 my comprehensive in South Yorkshire had computer classes on an RML 380Z, by the time I did computer O level in 1984 we had BBC micros

No it should move forward and privitize the roads.

Particularly it should sell them to different car companies and arrange for them to have a monopoly. So the interstate is usable by anyone who pays but the local roads are GM only and the off ramp where you work is owned by Toyota.
