burst water main up the street, no running water means no shower for me today :(

god dman brisbane water pipes

we're all here busting humps saving water, and fricken mains pipes are blowing all our good work

heh not really, if we are saving as much water as they say even that burst main is a drop in the ocean

You know what f***s me off? How you see footage of these busted mains with torrents of water flowing away down the gutter, with all these dumb c***s just standing there watching. Why not grab whatever buckets/containers you can and use what you can salvage to wash your car, dog or water your plants?

with all the uranium we have I always wondered why Australia doesnt build nuclear power plants and desalination plants running off them, problem water solved, kyoto protocol solved

nuclear is the way

but that would kill out precious mining industry, oh noes

Apparently the dam levels are down to 20% due to some water main bust in the city!
Carnts!

yeah like that's a realistic expectation crizane

fortunately we have so much water at the moment we don't need to worry about investing in maintainence of water pipes or care when they bust open.

oh. wait a second..

your gay

Jim is gay

switch to brawndo, problem solved

LPG TANKS

EXPLODING LPG TANKS

Desalination plants run on LPG?

they should, it's the fuel of the future lol

but that would kill out precious mining industry, oh noes

I think uranium also comes out of the ground

just put extra deodorant on. harden up.

edit: fyi one barrel of uranium is equal to like 40,000 tonnes of coal. not really comparable.

not to mention the colour

the colour's a minor issue though. they wouldn't mining 40,000 tonnes of yellow coal.

contact with coal makes you a bit black. contact with uranium makes you dead

contact with lpg makes you high

it all makes sense now

i don't come in contact with lpg
i screw the nozzle on at the servo
click the handle into place and go and check my oil

contact with uranium makes you dead

uranium isn't very radioactive until it is enriched.

that's true infi
oh well, more lpg for me.

and i don't come into contact with uranium everyday

whats your point

another burst water main, this time in the street i work.

Its going to rain so get your soap out and go outside for cold shower

I know its cold but take 2 teaspoons of concrete and harden the f*** up because skin is waterproof

I think uranium also comes out of the ground

no, it comes from Uranus. Hence the name.

No wonder why it kills on contact.

harden the f*** up because skin is waterproof

Except on the palms of your hands and soles of your feet...

i saved water by showering with your mum

even if Kev approved 25 nukes tomorrow it would take 10 yrs before they are built and producing electricity.

but its a cheap bandwagon to run, even if it smells like arse.

also, lol nukes will save us haha. must be some fancy european uranium, or something right daniel? much better than that fake s*** we get over here.

what?

Health risks of uranium mining

Because uranium ore emits radon gas, uranium mining can be more dangerous than other underground mining, unless adequate ventilation systems are installed. During the 1950s, many Navajos became uranium miners, as many uranium deposits were discovered on Navajo reservations. A statistically significant subset of these early miners later developed small cell carcinoma after exposure to uranium ore.[10] Radon-222, a natural decay product of uranium, has been shown to be the cancer-causing agent.[6] Some American survivors and their descendants received compensation under the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act in 1990.

So after living, breathing and basically bathing in the s*** every day for a protracted period of time, some of the people developed cancer? holy s***, watch out for uranium....

somehow i think mining practices have changed since the indians were mining uranium in the 1950's

holy s***, watch out for uranium....

well you don't think that something which can level whole cities in small quantities is going to be harmless AMIRITE?

If uranium out of the ground could level whole cities, iran wouldnt be poking america with a stick by continuously talking about centrifuges :P
