Ukraine Invasion, Danger & Authoritarianism

How the Ukraine became independent, and the nuclear arsenal that was turned over to Russia in the process, all play into the danger of what is happening today. Even if nuclear weapons are not used, Ukraine has nuclear power plants and the risks are high. Most of the world realizes this, except for some countries in favor of authoritarian regimes, and some in the Republican Party of the USA, who still follow Trump. Donald Trump has gone on record as saying that Vladimir Putin is a genius for invading Ukraine. The history is out there if you care to find it. Why this matters to the rest of the world, should become obvious and the similarities to World War II are at best, frightening. This is a good testament, to the fact that while the everyday people may be good, a few mentally unstable, authoritarian leaders, are able to jeopardize world peace and security.

However, by the time I was done, my interest in technology, from over 10 years as an IT professional, was thoroughly peaked! Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...
