JAPAN PUSHES TO 'LEGALISE' WHALING!
(Message 1038718)
Posted 3 Oct 2010 by ![]() Post: WELL frankly a huge percentage of the dolphins and whales that are washing up on the beaches here are the result of radiation poisoning because the water from our hospital sewers is draining into the oceans nearby. San Francisco Ocean Beach is a graveyard between Seton Hospital and Livermore. The San Francisco Zoological Gardens are a close third. The water seeping around broken radio collars [who keeps track of these?] and leaking leaking hospital plumbing is going into the ground water table and also into pipes we terminate underwater right IN THE SEA itself |

Posted 1 Apr 2009 by ![]() Post: Is this the reason why I'm having a bit of trouble getting new units? The last work download to this computer was at 11:30pm PDT on the 28th (7:30 UTC on the 29th); almost exactly three days ago. I get the same message from the server at varying frequencies. Have been suspending network activity about 3/4 of the time. I wonder if anyone is playing Freerice. |
