The curves that most old Nukes are really interested in, and can only dream about.

The girl is not real.  Therefore ideal for nukes to dream about.

Can't go posting stuff that might be offensive, like actual in the flesh pictures. It does look better than some of the inflatables I have seen in racks on Half-way night.

All this nuke stuff got me thinking of Avagadro's Constant, Hafnium, CRUD, Aristo slide rules. Don't ask or I'll have to kill you.

The nice thing about slide rules was no batteries to die, or electronic components to go tits up, at the worst moment. Wink

One of the factors in the Four Factor and Six Factor equations - a Constant.

I think for Uranium 238 it was like 1.47 ????   Ratio of fast neutrons starting to slow down to Slow Neutrons remaining and available to fission.

Believe it or not, that is from memory and likely is totally wrong.
