I'd echo the welcome except that I notice it was made in October last year and that you have a bunch of edits. Ever thought of creating a userpage? When looking through the recent changes, I tend to focus on IPs and users with red links to their userpages (because I think that they are new). Anyway, I thought you were new, but seeing as you aren't, I'll say what I was going to say anyway. That your edit here [1] (on Political Compass) was good. I couldn't think how to phrase it. But seeing as you aren't a new user you don't need the encouragement anyway! ~AFA ʢűčķ¿Ю 21:39, 14 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, I have been meaning to get a userpage for months now, I haven't got round to it so far but I suppose i should make the effort.Some Sort Of Anarchist Nutter 15:18, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Regarding Your Post on the Neutron Bomb Discussion Page edit

  • You posted a while back on the discussion page for the neutron bomb article. You mentioned that the US military uses depleted uranium munitions due to their radiological and toxic effects. However, the motives behind the usage of those types of munitions are actually a lot less sinister. A little bit of trivia for you: while uranium IS an extremely toxic metal biologically, the amount of radiation released from depleted uranium isn't enough to do any real harm to the human body. You can actually order pieces of it from unitednuclear.com and handle it with your bare hands (though it's recommended that you wash your hands after doing so). The reason for using depleted uranium munitions is simply that it's a very hard and dense metal and makes for extremely effective armor-piercing and tankbusting projectiles. There are far easier and cheaper ways to poison a number of people from a distance. Your concern might be true if the US military was launching projectiles filled with powdered uranium that could be inhaled, but that isn't the case. Just throwing this out there because it's an interesting bit of trivia :-). Chrisbrl88 (talk) 12:02, 24 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
