This thread is for the more intelligent, any intelligent thoughts can be posted here by the more intelligent amongst us.
The thread is dedicated to bosley (bos) who only wants the more intelligent thoughts posted here.

Imagination is more important than knowledge; Einstein

NO was my answer ( til i saw the second one LOL ).

What a genius , got any more Doc !

Nuclear fission is the splitting of an atom into several smaller fragments. This is induced by bombarding an atom of fuel (usually uranium-235 but could also be plutonium-239, uranium-233, and possibly thorium-232) with neutrons. The fissionable atom then captures the neutron and splits (decays) into two smaller atoms (isotopes such as iodine-131, caesium-137 and strontium 90) and two or three neutrons, which go on to split other fissionable nuclei resulting in a chain reaction.
The combined weight of the fission products is less than the weight of the original nucleus and following Einstein's E=mc2 this loss of mass (about 0.1% of the original mass) is converted into the massive energy output of the reaction.

There are many problems with this technique, the most famous and most crucial is the safety aspect. The products of the fission are all highly radioactive and the process itself results in a substantial amount of both beta and gamma radiation. There is no safe, permanent way to dispose of the radioactive products and further safety issues arise in the mining, refining and transportation of the fissionable material. Also the consequences of incompetently operated reactors was made tragically clear with the Chernobyl disaster.

And add to that scenario, some religious fanatical hatred or even a very slight potential risk towards such, and we can begin to see why, if Iran don't reduce a nuclear risk to external countries and communities, then someone lke the USA or Israel, will reduce it for them.

PS. Look at the following for Boris Vallejo art on the Internet:-

well after enjoying all the intelligent conversation I thought I should contribute to the debate on gender issues and perhaps why boris and the stars don't quite work on the female of the species....now I think I learnt how to operate the top of the machine when I was about 12..now i'm 37 and as for the lower part i'm still trying to find the missing pages of the manual, you know the ones, the bits that the suppliers think are too obvious to bother writing down but everyone gets stuck on....to press the green one before the red one, or vice versa? or is that only in the morning?

which is the button that activates the woman ultimate get out clause whenever she is losing an arguement, the one that activates the line, " yes i know that's what i said , but that's not what i meant!!!"

nice tits on the pics , btw.

Hmm...that's a superlarge pink LED for the blokes.

that's alan's feminine side!!!

A bloke just needs something sticking out and a little pink thing near it and he can do it.

Out of all the millions of different ways to help a lady turn on, can you find the right one? Some will need them all. Some will need them all and in the right order too.

Q. Does knob size count?
A. Only if it has writing on it!

chocolat, it makes the women feel more at ease and less defensive

No one got any thing intelligent to say while I have been away.

me and baza had a blond moment today........ well i did and told baza about it and he agreed so he's just as blond.

The orbit of a particle near a black hole depends on the curvature of space around the black hole, which also depends on how fast the black hole is spinning. A spinning black hole drags space around with it and allows atoms to orbit nearer to the black hole than is possible for a non-spinning black hole, as seen in the right-hand artist's rendering of a stellar black hole. In the left one, no evidence for spin was found.

A supermassive black hole at the center of this galaxy, Centaurus A, blasts two jets of high-energy particles into space. Astronomers use the outflows to help them understand the shape and physics of black holes.

Even the fish arn't real?????????

Intelligent thoughts in the box below please.

Would just like to say that I can't make my mind up about the uncertainty principle.

Secondly, if nothing can travel faster than light, how come the dark always gets there first.

Answers on a five pound note to my usual address.

You need to read this.

Yep, read it. All 13 words (including the long ones). Now what??
