FUD is a public debate tactic, if I may stretch a bit, wherein the speaker or organization is facing serious opposition either in popularity, by factual data or by common sense. It is resorted to in order to appeal to people’s innate fears and doubts about the future and possibilities.

One of Big Environment’s leading members, Greenpeace, has released this video over in the U.K.

Wow! Scary. And who here hasn’t heard of the threat of 9/11-like attacks on the U.S. nuclear power plants? Although, maybe some of the technologies we’ve talked about here would be better suited to defend against these situations, let’s look at some factual data (usually the best defense against a FUD attack). Here is a video of a test where an F-4 Phantom was flown into a concrete wall similar to those housing nuclear power plants. Watch and learn. . Aside from the fact that I marvel at the construction technology used, I think this is pretty convincing. But that’s just a small fighter jet, you say? Well the Nuclear Energy Institute conducted another study found here that determined that a 767 flying into a nuclear power plant would not cause a breach. We wonder why everyone is all spun up about the various topics of the day and it’s largely due to false data and FUD.

GorT

GorT is an eight-foot-tall robot from the 51ˢᵗ Century who routinely time-travels to steal expensive technology from the future and return it to the past for retroinvention. The profits from this pay all the Gormogons’ bills, including subsidizing this website. Some of the products he has introduced from the future include oven mitts, the Guinness widget, Oxy-Clean, and Dr. Pepper. Due to his immense cybernetic brain, GorT is able to produce a post in 0.023 seconds and research it in even less time. Only ’Puter spends less time on research. GorT speaks entirely in zeros and ones, but occasionally throws in a ڭ to annoy the Volgi. He is a massive proponent of science, technology, and energy development, and enjoys nothing more than taking the Czar’s more interesting scientific theories, going into the past, publishing them as his own, and then returning to take credit for them. He is the only Gormogon who is capable of doing math. Possessed of incredible strength, he understands the awesome responsibility that follows and only uses it to hurt people.
