Why is the steam green?

Zeelow05 Apr 2017 10:08 a.m. PST

thumbs up!! Like the toxic steam stuff.

They look more like cooling towers than nuclear reactors.

Thanks guys ! Yeah … they are towers for a Nuc Reactor. I've got a number of pieces I can use for those too !

How's this for a structure where the reactor is ? evil grin

Yeah, those are great, particularly the first one (with "95" on it)!

Thank You ! We call that AREA 95 … the rest is classified … wink

Nice work.

a linguistics question: "nuc"?

Is that American? We'd write "nuke".

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse06 Apr 2017 6:56 a.m. PST

Many Thanks again !

Yes … some of us Americans say "Nucs" …

Outlaw Tor06 Apr 2017 3:34 p.m. PST

Heh, not if you have been there…

A working Nuc device:

Projects video as well as, presumably, ending all life as we know it.

Heh, not if you have been there…
Where in the USA ? I'm there ! evil grin

I was trained as an Atomic Demolition Missions Officer in the 101. So I guess I was "there" too ! huh?

We were talking about the "pretty toys I painted" … Nothing about my "language", etc., … for heavens sake !

Ochoin, Ralph. Ochoin.

Basic Scots' Gaelic word for "Dearie me" or some such. I get your name correctly, please get my username right.

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse07 Apr 2017 7:31 a.m. PST

Sorry … I'm not too bright … so I make mistakes when dealing with "FUrin" words … frown And my short term memory is not very good either … old fart

I fixed it … see …

That is also why I like just being ID'd as L4 over my given name. It's simple, easy, quick, effective, etc. …

Personal logo ochoin Supporting Member of TMP07 Apr 2017 7:46 a.m. PST

Thanks, Ralph.

Appreciated.

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse07 Apr 2017 7:56 a.m. PST

Indeed … And yet you still used my proper name not L4 or Legion 4 … so … whatever …

On another front …
Still don't know what Tor meant by "Heh, not if you have been there…"

Where ? Ground Zero ?

Ralph, when you were a member of TMP & we exchanged many, many pleasant & chatty PMs, you asked me to call you Ralph. I see no reason to allow you to renege. And I can spell Ralph correctly.

I invited you to use my Christian name, which you did, & certainly have no problem if you still so desire. I think such social pleasantries give TMP a much more amicable atmosphere.

Outlaw Tor07 Apr 2017 11:53 a.m. PST

Meant that those that work in the nuclear power industry, civilian or military, use the term "nuke".

Not a biggie at all, just a note.

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse07 Apr 2017 1:59 p.m. PST

Got it Tor … I just was not sure what you meant. However, waaay back when '80s, we used nuc.

As with NBC – Nuclear, Biological, Chemical …

Or as GIs will do … it was "humorously"(?) shortened to "Nucs, Bugs and Gas" … At least back then that was the "jargon" … I was familiar with. As that is the "unofficial" way we said it at that time. And I guess I still do … old fart

Fine … it was a while ago that I was a paying member. So my memory is failing me it appears. Regardless …
You can call me any of the names you wish.

Just don't call me late for Pay Day, breakfast, lunch or dinner ….

Ralph: the memory thing is a bit of a worry.

I think wargaming is an excellent way of exercising the brain. But there may be a few tips here:

Keep well.

Don't we all, Ralph.

Please next time I post something … let's stay OT … I posted pics about the toys I paint. That is the Topic … 'nuff said … thank you …

let's stay OT

I don't know. Your Ralph Waldo Emerson said, 'A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds".

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse09 Apr 2017 5:51 p.m. PST

Yeah … I know … I'm stupid … you keep trying to tell me that. In various ways … Just forget about it …

Personal logo ochoin Supporting Member of TMP09 Apr 2017 9:06 p.m. PST

Ralph, could you please indicate where I'm calling you stupid?

I don't think I am.
