It is not a brain teaser. It is really simple to decode, really.

if you can translate ascii, you can translate binary.

but is it worth your time?

You are right, you can. But to decode this it should only take a total of 5 minutes or less. Because you do not have to manually decode the message.

Lol Timstone, you really just proved my point there

Just because we can understand how it works doesn't mean we're smart enough to use it safely! And not allow our greed and basic human instincts change our judgement.

And havn't you noticed whenever anyone says they're invincible something REALLY bad happens?

You want something hard to decode? Try this:

(note that no punctuation was encoded, and that it is not entirely a consistent message...)

The problems, however, have to do with insuring that the "we" who may think they are ready to use nuclear power, are always ready, and that there is no danger of anything going wrong. Those are matters of politics, business, adiministation, education, counter-terrorism, security, preparing for the unexpected, natural disasters, etc. The US just "lost" two spent fuel rods somewhere?

Abstainance is the best guarantee that there will NOT be a meltdown, dirty bomb, or other catastrophe. Indulgence creates a huge need for competence, vigilance, security, intelligence, lack of corruption, lack of fanatical enemies, etc.

Thank you for posting the link to this site. Thank you very much. I wonder why no one has done a documentary on what this lady has done. THAT would make a fine evening of television to be sure.

I sent the link to 60 minutes and 48 hours. Perhaps one of them will be inspired to contact her and do a story. God I hope so.

If any of you would like to do the same, the more there are supporting it the more likely they will produce a story on it.

No offense, but you should check your sources. None of this is true.

Here's a link to some facts.
