    Dammit, Batboy! You should have aimed a little further south at DC! :ualbert:

    And turned up the power!

    Hmmm. Apparently Batboy's earthquake machine is farther along than my asteroid attractor ray. :chris:

    I think a bigger test is needed. A 10 on the Richter scale. In New Orleans. :bergman:

    My friend's fb accounts are abuzz with chatter about it. I didn't notice a damn thing. Really only interesting because they're so rare around these parts...I can only assume because they're scared of government regulation, or maybe all the bullshit out of Congress has filled any faultline around here.

    If I give Batboy a certain address, can he initiate the earthquake there and set it up so it is a 10 on the Richter scale and limit the damage to a radius of about 2 acres?

    Or should I fund Lanzman more?

    I'd say it's pretty telling about the state of affairs in this country when pretty much everyone is hoping for an earthquake, meteor stike, fire, plague, something to wipe out DC and Congress and the White House...

    ...and they aren't joking.

    We can start with DC, London, Paris, Rome, Moscow, and the like first. If the problems of the world don't solve themselves after the TIIC are gone, then we can expand outward.

    I'm thinking that 90%+ of all of our problems are caused by morons in positions of power. Get rid of them and the problems solve themselves.

    Well, the problem is that when you get rid of the morons in power, more morons just move in and fill the vacuum. What this place needs is an enema!

    So, Batboy is now causing earthquakes in the Washington D.C. area?

    I think the question on all our minds is:


    What can we do to boost the power output on Batboy's earthquake generator?

    Stick to funding Lanzman more. A 10.0 earthquake's gonna damage far, far more than two acres. If you don't mind the massive collateral damage, however...

    3- or 4-point quakes aren't that rare in the Mid-Atlantic. But actually feeling one is not that common.

    An asteroid even a few meters in diameter would damage far, far more than two acres too.

    Too local. You need a wide area of effect to truly be considered an evil genius.

    Obama's special move won't be the moonwalk, it'll be the moonraker.
