Stop suggesting we nuke the oil leak
 

Michio Kaku currently holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics and a joint appointment at City College of New York, and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, where he has lectured for more than 30 years. Presently, he is engaged in defining the "Theory of Everything", which seeks to unify the four fundamental forces of the universe: the strong force, the weak force, gravity and electromagnetism. He was a visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, and New York University. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He is listed in Who's Who in Science and Engineering, and American Men and Women of Science.

He explains why this is a really, really bad idea.

Radioactive globs of crude oil flying everywhere is taking things from 'horrible' to 'unthinkable'.

it had worked before it will work again.

who cares what that dumbass says.

it doesn't take rocket appliances to see how stupid an idea nuking the bottom of the gulf of mexico is.

not underwater it hasn't. especially at 5000 feet.

No. It didn't work before, and it won't work now. Did you even listen to what he said?
Michio Kaku is one of the most intelligent people to ever walk this earth.

i prefer to think positive.

:1orglaugh

can you imagine the international political implications as well? is it even legal to explode a nuke in the gulf?

Says who?

I always assumed people were only joking about the "nuke" thing anyway. I guess they weren't... :helpme

No, it would violate arms treaties.

well if they can't nuke it, how about chemical weapons? or right that toxic dispersant really didn't pan out...

hey what about biological weapons? thats the ticket.

certainly.

i guess i don't get the people here who just jump on any ole idear and then squeal when we/BP/obama/thegovernment doesn't do it.

top 3 stupid ideas people jump on with little thought to fix the problem:

3. let's drop a shitload of hay in the gulf and it will soak up the oil!
2. let's blow it the fuck up! nuke+hole=no hole.
1. james cameron!

"Nuke it!" is the war cry of those who have run out of ideas, or never bothered to think of any in the first place.

The solution to pollution is not dilution ;)

No mention of the pressure wave killing every fish for a long way too.
