Members Jugghaid Posted November 10, 2008 Members Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yup. But anti-nuclear people don't seem to be interested in facts. TRuer words were never spoken on HCBF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hawkhuff Posted November 10, 2008 Members Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yup. I probably get more rads from the flourescent lighting in my office than I did as a Navy Nuke. God No! I hope and pray you're not getting rads from your flourescent lighting. If so, change those bulbs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members walkerci Posted November 10, 2008 Members Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yup. But anti-nuclear people don't seem to be interested in facts. Unfortunately there are large numbers of uninformed, Luddites in the "environmental" community. They need to park their Volvos, unplug their houses from the grid, throw away their electronic gadgets, and live off the land.:poke: Seriously. A large utility wanted to put a massive solar installation in the Southern California desert (Anza-Borrego?). But oh noes... The power lines would scar the desert and ruin the beautiful vistas. The party line is that they are afraid that dirty Mexican electricity will be interconnected. Apparently these clowns prefer more coal, oil, and nuke plants.

Members Zeromus-X Posted November 11, 2008 Members Share Posted November 11, 2008 I just filled the last of the vacancies in my shop. I should have another opening in about six months. Call me when it happens. (seriously!) I've got a CS degree and a Physics minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members burdizzos Posted November 11, 2008 Members Share Posted November 11, 2008 Call me when it happens. (seriously!) I've got a CS degree and a Physics minor. I'll see what I can do. In the mean time, I'll see if I can round up some training material. You'd be right at home with the PC based digital control system we have, but you'd have to understand what all of those virtual PIDs are controlling.

CMS Author Craig Vecchione Posted November 11, 2008 CMS Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. Hard for me to do much about finding out, being as I am on the opposite side of the continent. No problem. I know a little about estuaries from boating on three of them (Hudson River, Delaware River/Bay, and Susquehanna River/Elk River/Chesapeake Bay). It's an interesting study of fluid dynamics. Okay, it's dry boring scientific {censored}, but that sounded intelligent, dinnit?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any room for a guy with a programming and mechanical background? I need work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a boiler plant equipment mechanic helper spot open, it pays $15/hr. In about four months, I will have a $20/hr boiler plant equipment mechanic spot open with a need for someone capable of learning how to do vibration analysis.

So that's around March...I may be in touch with you if nothing local comes up. I'm getting really tired of contract IT work...or the pathetic lack thereof. And I was always happier working with my hands. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem in IT is caused by stupid management, way too many 401b visas, and offshoring work. Check into government IT work. A lot of it requires US citizenship.
