Then it was natural selection. All they do is feed off society anyway
pensioners likely have already have kids.
so this is not natural selection.

geez - these things are fuel hogs. The QE2 burns 380 TONS of fuel a day.
there are so many better ways to use petroleum than to burn it.

depends. older ships (and cargo ships) use massive piston engines, 9 or 15 cylinders.
I see that newer ships use turbines connected to generators, connected to electric motors.
still, that's a lot of expensive hardware, ruined, plus a lot of dismantling to get it all replaced.

I wonder if the engines are ruined - flooded with salt water.
Those engines are LARGE. How do they replace them?

Isn't a good time to buy right now since prices are about as low as they've been for a year or more?
in a deflationary environment?
I wouldn't bet on it.

. said: I don't believe it. Natural uranium doesn't sustain a reaction. To separate the tow isotopes we literally hate to invest billions of dollars. That was not done to get a sample just to see if uranium had a property that no one had ever heard of before. How was experimentation done prior to separation?
you wouldn't need a chain reaction to test what was fissible or not.
You wouldn't WANT a chain reaction.
just send in a neutron and look for more neutrons out/fission daughters.

if that were the case, the 0-30 time would be worse for the 4-banger
