Looks expensive. The grey ones are the broken ones.

      I so rarely get to reference this “so bad it’s good” made-for-TV movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_Twister

      This television film was inspired by a real-life near disaster that had taken place on June 24. 1998, when an F2 tornado hit the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station in Ohio resulting in the loss of off-site power. Despite that, the film bears no resemblance to the actual events at Davis-Besse.

        I’ve seen that one! I vaguely remember not being blown away, but also thinking it wasn’t as terrible as I was expecting going into it.

      and famously resilient in the event of a bombing, or direct plane strike, or PWR depressurization.

      Yeah no, they’re built like fucking rocks, because they are one.

      I mean, we all saw how well one of them held up to a tidal wave

        You realize that thunderstorms are unrelated to tsunamis?

              Nowhere in the first comment did the poster claim that tidal waves and thunderstorms are related.

              Maybe you came in after CrimeDad made their comment.

              I can understand the confusion.

                You should reread the comments above and reassess who you believe is confused.

            Done. No change in my position. In what way do you think that thunderstorms (a weather phenomenon caused by atmospheric conditions) and tsunamis (a wave caused by an earthquake or large underwater landslide) are related?

              Where did the original comment say that they were related?

              You made something up.

              If you feel like it’s relevant I guess that’s your choice.

                The commenter he responded to brought tidal waves up out of left field when we were discussing hail. It was explicitly introduced as evidence of how vulnerable nuclear plants are in the context of a hail storm. Everyone seems to get this except you.

          What are tsunamis, but thunderstorms of the sea?
