snafu Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Okay... the last time the clocked moved was in 2002. It was in contrast to the 9/11 attack. It moved from nine minutes to the original position of seven minutes to twelve. I've been wondering why it hasn't moved because of the Iran crises. Is the clock on snooze? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/1844935.stm Quote "You can't stop insane people from doing insane things by passing insane laws. That's just insane!"

snafu Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 Color me stupid, I didn't even know it exsisted. Yeah it’s factious clock that the Atomic Scientists came up with. It just started out as a magazine cover. The lady that designed it just came up with seven minutes to twelve because it looked good to her. People started to use it like a mental focal point on the plight a world nuclear holocaust. It gives you a visual on how close we are. Not to say it knows the exact time.

snafu Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 See with this new development with Iran I think the clock should be at least five minutes to midnight but people like Phreak keep hitting the snooze button.

builder Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 From memory, a large flock of migrating geese flying into the US from Canada almost triggered a nuclear strike against Russia. Here's some documented close calls. History of Nuclear Close-Calls By: Ryan Mauro tdcanalyst@optonline.net March 1946: At this time, the Soviets were still occupying northern Iran and supporting the communist movement in Azerbaijan. Despite an agreement with the United States to withdraw from Iran in return for oil concessions, the Soviets refused to withdraw, and even moved armored forces to the borders of the two states in an apparent move towards an invasion. The United States eventually gave the Soviets a 48-hour period to withdraw, and the Soviets withdrew after 24 hours. The Soviets lost this stand-off, failing in their goal to either hold onto a portion of Iran or cause a communist revolution there. 1946: During this incident, the British, the Americans and their allies were supporting pro-freedom forces during the Greek Civil War, while the Soviets and Yugoslavs supported the communists. The Americans demanded permission to fly through Yugoslav and Greek airspace. The communists shot down a military transport plane. The United States threatened war with Yugoslavia and the Soviets (who said they Quote Persevere, it pisses people off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, that clock is something I'd come up with as a joke or something to mess with my potheaded friends heads.....Wow. The clock is not real. The reality that we could perish from a nuclear catastrophe is. How close to that do you think we are? The clock gives you a perspective on the inevitable nuclear holocaust.

kobryn Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I preach to you, brothers and sisters, make love not war. We must unite as one, round up the fascists and gas them all. Why should billions of people die because of a certain group's feelings towards that country. If the US fires a nuclear bomb again, I don't think other countries are gonna stand by and watch like those panzy nazi's (or should I say panzer nazis rofl!!1one). If people really gave a fuck, they'd do something about it. Make a new culture under the sea. There'll be no nuclear accusations, just friendly crustations, under the sea!
