Looking at the bright side, if it really was a nuclear bomb, then it's using up whatever U-235 and P-235 the North Koreans have. Hard stuff to produce in quantity - even the US had only enough for one more bomb right after the first three explosions in 1945.
Look Boys if its a 4.5 Quake that means its 20kt.
Probally U235 Gun type weapon. With their current missile design they can hit the West Coast in 23 min.
F*#KING THINK ABOUT IT.
This cannot stand and Obama better pull the finger out of his ass and do something today, not tommorrow.
Whats scarier is that this is from a country whose income comes from sales of methamphetamines, heroin, counterfeit US and japanese currencies and sales of arms to terrorist groups. They are not above selling whatever it is they have for whatever price they can get, and if history has shown us anything is that there are people out there who are willing to buy.
A 20kt nuke is small potatoes compared to the US arsenal... but is still sufficiant to kill several million people if in the right(wrong) hands. Very serious, very scary stuff.
Ya know, I've been in North Korea(like 100 ft, at least).....It was snowing too hard to tell if we were bein' irradiated. I guess they had the good sense to stay inside in a blizzard.
Weren't no Alery's then, neither.
you forget, reilly, that this wasn't actually a bomb, it was an earthquake. The obama administration just used it as an excuse to enter a war we never should have been in.
When I was at Caltech I designed this experiment to model a underground Nuclear Blast. Started with a 12" cube of limestone and milled out a 20cm circular cavity right in the middle. Placed High Explosive charge right in the middle of the cavity. Had strain gages on the block and a high speed data logger.
North Korea fired seven ballistic missiles off its eastern coast Saturday, South Korea said, a violation of U.N. resolutions and an apparent message of defiance to the United States on its Independence Day.

Today in 2005, North Korea announced it had a nuclear weapon, though what it actually had was an old 1970s microwave oven and some tin foil.
Fletch, tin foil will be quite handy if building a Faraday Cage to protect all your electronic gizmos when the crazy N Koreans launch one of their new toys towards LA.
Let us know!
