the thousands of people that worked on the A bomb would all be found guilty of war crimes.

No they wouldn't. The Nazi's bombed London
with missiles killing civilians, we bombed Dresden
killing civilians. Bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki
weren't crimes, it's what happens in war. An A
bomb is just a bomb that makes a bigger explosion,
how is that a crime.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Because there are people still alive, millions
of them, that had parents and grandparents
and siblings gassed and incinerated by the
Nazi's in the camps. It was a massive crime
against humanity, you don't let someone
off the hook just because they're 90. Most
war crimes involve person on person crimes,
like mistreating POW's, murdering civilians,
killing hostages, killing suspected spies with
no proof. The Nazi's murdered up to 20 mil
civilians in the camps.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Looks like Volkswagen has deleted a whole bunch of their clean diesel videos from YouTube. Trying to hide something?

Amatuers. They'll need to do a more thorough job: lot of the videos are still viewable on the websites of local VW dealers nationwide.

Might be time to buy one. Some guy tried to unload his for $10,000 below what he paid. From the article it does not say what it black booked at, but this could be the reverse of the greenies who paid $5,000 over sticker for a Prius back in 2008 when gs shot way up.

An analyst says one-third of the companies could be bankrupt by the end of next year.

Doomsday may finally be coming to the fracking industry.

Despite the big drop in oil prices in the past year, there have been relatively few bankruptcies in the energy industry. That may be about to change. James West, an energy industry analyst at ISI Evercore, says months of low activity have left many of the companies in the hydraulic-fracturing business either insolvent or close to it. He says as many as a third of the fracking companies could go bust by the end of next year.

“This holiday will not be a time of cheer in the oil patch,” says West.

So far oil and gas exploration companies, while cutting back somewhat, have continued to spend based on budgets set a year ago when oil prices were much higher. But now West says the price of oil is catching up to them, and they may soon have to drastically cut back their spending on services. The catalyst is the banks.
