There are a number of companies that do soil freezing on large scales successfully. They do the ground surveys, measure the soil's water content, do the math, drill the holes, insert the pipes, and pump the refrigerated brine and it works. They can even do it in open moving water, such as building ice dams in the middle of rivers to build bridge footings. WTF is the problem with this particular installation? Did they hire an inexperienced company to do it or something?

Enenews on nuclear energy is like Fox news on Obama, even if something good happened they would spin it as bad or lie about it. Unless an actual site is talking about it or someone other than Andy Gunderson, I wouldn't worry.

Interesting that both you and this guy call him Andy when his name is Arnie Gunderson. I hope you'll read my response to your friend in that other thread.

Mafia AKA Japanese government.
[–] The_Adventurist 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Japanese mafia control all construction. They drop bodies into the wet cement of buildings. When you look at the red lights on the towers of Tokyo there's a pretty good chance you're looking at a few really huge tombstones.
Of course, unlike the American mafia the Japanese mafia don't fuck with you unless you actively get involved with them. Plus they're public, not hidden away. The yakuza families have actual yakuza office buildings and go on TV shows as funny guests. It's just like a regular thing in society there.
This has been Yakuze facts.

Yowza Yakowza. Yeah, I see now that it really is a massive clusterfuck over there. Scour the subways for homeless dudes, give 'em brooms, and take a cut of their wages. Glad I don't like fish.
