... It definitely will run on natural gas. It may run on oil. Using it to burn pulverised coal will drastically shorten its service life. Nuclear plants should be able to achieve gobsmacking efficiencies if we can conquer the psychological and engineering barriers of designing the reactor pile to be a thoroughly contained, ball of radioactive, incandescent gas. The reactor is based on the ...

In article <6cjji5F3fflmcU5@mid.individual.net>, Adrian says... I'm absolutely gobsmacked - and, frankly, slightly worried - that you don't seem understand the difference between kerb weight and GVW. The only weight that matters is the one the weighbridge comes up with. Does your wagon weigh 44t _empty_ (kerb weight) or is that the maximum weight it can be loaded up to (GVW...

... put my Mondeo on the weighbridge at the docks and I doubt it's anywhere near 1.9 tonnes. Are you then going to claim the Focus is half a tonne heavier? I'm absolutely gobsmacked - and, frankly, slightly worried - that you don't seem understand the difference between kerb weight and GVW. Does your wagon weigh 44t _empty_ (kerb weight) or is that the maximum weight it can be loaded ...

I was so gobsmacked at his, well, stupidity, that I just rang off. Whats the fucking point? Exactly how can you live a sustainable lifestyle in a Barratt home, with a tiny garden, and costing an unsustainable

Re: 'Inhumane' motorists drove OVER and around hit-and-run victim as he lay dying in the street

...over the limit (alcohol) returning home from a club or wherever. More guesswork on your part. At least it is an intelligent/educated guess. :-) I do find it slightly gobsmacking that the police are complaining that no motorist stopped to help when the police themselves will not enter Moss Side unless they are in pairs, have bulletproof vests and an exit strategy. ...

Doug (Doug <jagmad@riseup.net>) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying: The word 'dastardly' springs to mind in connection with BAA and its pals in the Government. That's nice, dear. The word "unsurprised" springs to my mind. Hell, I'd have been gobsmacked if they HADN'T attempted to get somebody on the inside.

Personally I'd not have even bothered ringing and just gone and done the second one first. I just stood there gobsmacked. -- Conor I only please one person per day. Today is not your day.

... might have some here fooled but you don't fool me for one minute Mr Saccani. Especially when you resort like Capt. Marwoto to falsehoods attempting to justify your position. I could only watch gobsmacked and silent at some of the utter garbage and outright lies you spouted here in the BA B-777 thread in order to dominate and indeed ridicule other posters. What goes round comes round. ...

...'s Nic. You don't really need to read the article. Might as well be Nathan Barley. Then it gets worse expressing the engine thrust in units of weight of fractional kiwi fruits. Gobsmacking. Why not `five grapes' or `three one-millionths of a double-decker bus'? Don't think he knows the difference between brake and break either although in the context used neither make ...
