The risk from Hydrogen probably isn't nearly as bad as people think it is. And the fact is Petrol is very dangerous under the right conditions, people have just gotten use to having it around & generally don't realise just how dangerous it can be.

The advantage with hydrogen is that it is lighter than air, unlike petrol, lpg and others. any leak is dispersed into the atmosphere very fast.

Interesting that we had this mention of Hydrogen vehicles, because the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) has a story about Hydrogen cars today.
Hydrogen for cars.

For example, the tank of Toyota's Mirai holds 5 kilograms of compressed hydrogen. The car's range has not been tested in Australia but in Europe it takes about three minutes to refuel a tank, which will last about 550 kilometres.

341.75 miles, that's good.

A North Korean state agency threatened on Thursday to use nuclear weapons to “sink” Japan and reduce the United States to “ashes and darkness” for supporting a U.N. Security Council resolution and sanctions over its latest nuclear test.
The Korea Asia-Pacific Peace Committee, which handles the North’s external ties and propaganda, also called for the breakup of the Security Council, which it called “a tool of evil” made up of “money-bribed” countries that move at the order of the United States.
“The four islands of the archipelago should be sunken into the sea by the nuclear bomb of Juche. Japan is no longer needed to exist near us,” the committee said in a statement carried by the North’s official KCNA news agency.
Juche is the North’s ruling ideology that mixes Marxism and an extreme form of go-it-alone nationalism preached by state founder Kim Il Sung, the grandfather of the current leader, Kim Jong Un.

Meanwhile, some Chinese views

- No, I'm not worried about being here. Not with the situation as it is in the country and not with the missiles either. Here it feels safe, there is a whole river between us, "says Yuan Xiu Ling on the seafront and laughs.

New Dandong City can already house 400,000 people, but most reminiscent of a ghost town. The 60,000 residents who have already moved here have lost a lot of money in a short period of time. Housing prices are raging, but Jiang Wei remains and hopes for peace on the Korean Peninsula.
- I am worried. Certainly. And I hope, of course, that it will be better. But it's hard to talk about these difficult questions.

a majority of the ROK wants to join the DPRK

I'd like to read up on that and become informed but having trouble. Could you point me to some sources?

Since a considerable amount has already been posted here in the links, I think you are a bit tone deaf. So I'll suggest you read some political coverage of the ROK government as a start, say the last decade.

South Korea's president Kim Dae-jung launched the so-called "sunshine policy" in 1998, aimed at promoting peaceful coexistence, reconciliation and cooperation between North and South Korea to lay the foundations for a reunification in the long run and led to a summit with the leaders of the countries in Pyongyang 2000. [1] At the meeting, the leaders of the countries, Kim Dae-jung and Kim Jong Il, signed the June 15 declaration that both countries should work for a peaceful future reunification.
Support for reunification among the younger generations in South Korea has been seen by some as faltering, with the percent of people in government polls who regarded reunification as essential dropping from more than eighty percent in the 1990s to fifty-six percent.[14] Among Koreans in their twenties, forty-one percent agreed with the statement (and only about twenty percent of teenagers)

Alberto Contador wins on Angliru. Froome wins the Vuelta, Nibali is second.

Strange but if you convert 2.5 miles to km guess what the answer is
4.023 km

janneseti...probably correct, but I have had the beard so long I would feel naked without it.

Meow. Long day. Meow.
I would still appreciate any comments, pro or con, about the new haircolor.

But now the kittyman must go slumber with Bandit and Purrball.
They are beckoning.

I used to live in a small city, in San Gabriel CA, a store was a block away, but that was in 1986, when I could walk a long ways.

Not being able to walk is a bummer for ever reason it is.
Only two months ago my GF had to amputate her leg above the knee cap:(

Ouch!
I almost had to have that done in 2002, instead I have 3 titanium screws in My left leg, 2 bad ankles and knees, and 2 dislocated hips, with OA, that's in addition to a stiff back, being 6'1" tall, about 416lbs, a hernia(My stomach is partly above My diaphragm), a dislocated right shoulder joint(OA was detected there at age 40, I'm 57, though I'm told I look like I'm about 45, w/thick strawberry blond hair and no grey, hairline unchanged since I was a teenager), I had to change My diet several times just to lose some weight, I hope I'm still losing weight, I need to charge the batteries soon for the scale.

I usually walk to mine. Always have.

I wish it was that easy for me. The nearest convenience store (petrol station) is 4.023 km away. The nearest grocery market is 8.046 km away. If a ambulance is needed. Pray and give them 20 to 30 minutes.

4.023 km away? That's 2.5 miles.
We would say it's 4 km away. The extra 23 meters... LOL:)
Anyway. I'm a city boy used to have near to all.
My GF as kid though had to go 7 km to school everyday, Rain or shine, Snow in the winter.
