In reply to Massive Hydroelectric Dams Could Have Caused the Sichuan Earthquake
And since quakes can't be predicted, there's certainly no possibility whatsoever that maybe - just maybe - the quake would have happened anyway, dam or no dam.

I think anything that gets people, especially children, off the streets and out of the cold is a good thing.

i'm glad they thought of the needy before breaking the cars down and extracting the metal. now the homeless dont have to freeze. also a good way of ridding the street of them. :D

@James: These are people who have been displaced by the earthquake, not just any old bums living on the streets.

@DigitalSciGuy: i don't think James said anything about "any old bums" anywhere. he said they were "the needy" and "ridding the street". maybe a little crude, but both are true for many who have been put out by the earthquake.

Most often subway cars don't just get thrown into landfills. The amount of metal in subway cars is much too valuable to just throw into a landfill. The old Redbirds the New York City subway disposed of from 2001 to 2003 were stripped and dumped off the coast of the Carolinas to create artificial reefs. More often, like cars, these relics get fully stripped by their operator for spare parts that are usually interchangeable with their existing rollingstock, then smelted into raw materials to make new subway cars. Please don't lead people to believe that railways are so irresponsible - that's irresponsible reporting :P

@DigitalSciGuy: I'd rather them be converted to help house (if not transport) the human population than being stripped down (for whatever reason).

Kudos to them.

In reply to Fake Water Cube Building Spotted in Sichuan, China
It says the clip has been blocked in my area. And I'm not even in China. That's some heavy censorship they've got.
