First time out of the vault
DANGER - Stay out until 12,000 AD

The article opens up a few issues that never occurred to me before.

The offending nuclear waste will be stored far underground at each of these facilities, but there is still a danger that future generations might stumble across it.

The essence of the message itself is simple: Warning, dangerous materials are buried below.


of particular note is the actual message.

what do you think?
 
I remember hearing about that. Its really pretty funny to think that people so far advanced in the future wouldnt understand that the area is dangerous. Unless of course humanity de-evolves into tribal societys that cant maintain a historical record. In that case they wont have the tools necessary to dig up the stuff so its no problem then.

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller

*EDIT*

I like some of the comments by readers:

This is high up on my DI scale. I think it's very nobel that the people behind this have the foresight to warn a culture existing thousands of years from now.

I think I like the landscape of thorns idea, but I can just picture stupid college students from the 6013 A.D. having drinking parties there. After that, it's only a matter of time before they try to break into the waste storage area looking for more booze.
 
Who know's what's going to happen. We may never fix the ozone, the earth's surface won't be able to safely sustain life. Humans will move underground because we spent so much money trying to save the planet that there isn't enough to colonize mars. As the population grows the underground cities will expand and we will eventually stumble upon the storage facilities with no warning because all the warnings are on the surface.

Yeah, we should like, put warning signs underground too :shock:

They should put a smoke machine that farts on the persons who approaches it, both color and smell. Now THAT I would stay away from.

The morlocks will eat us before the radiation gets us :roll:
 
And the mole people, don't forget or underestimate the mole people, I tell you!:look:

Silencer made it. It's okay, I guess, I'm just a little disappointed with the choice of pictures. The foot that woman is kissing isn't exactly the type I like. Tha nail looks a bit weird. And the colour isn't right, either. It is blatantly obvious to a hardcore foot fetishist as myself that the maker of that sig does not share my fetish. The baby is a total turn off. No, actually, the more I look at it, the less I like it. I was thrilled at first, but now I just look at it and I think: I'd better change it back into those two fucking dogs. Or I'll make a new one myself. Or just fuck it. :roll:
 
There's a baby in there? My monitor is kind of old and it lacks in brightness... a lot a couple of days ago I tried to play Drakan and the game begins at night; the only way I could 'see' my char was by wiping out a sword wich had a blue light in the grip... so if it's dark I can't see it, I can guess it but that's it...:D I see the foot as having a slightly olive complexion and that nail is kind of badly done... But the blonde still looks nice :wiggle:
