Reports indicate N. Korea may continue blowing self up

A South Korean official told ABC news that he’s aware of signs of activity at the site of last week’s nuke test in North Korea, indicating Pyongyang may be readying for… a second test.

The signs were apparently picked up by a U.S. satellite. The South Korean Arirang-2 satellite, on the other hand, is probably monitoring Japanese naval activity near Dokdo.

    The North should definitely continue with these tests… They should do at least… oh… 10-20 of them. Or more, if they can. After all, these tests bring great joy to the people of North Korea. :)

    Notice how nobody seems to care that North Korea might conduct a second test?

    Lots of not-too-far-out speculation on N.K. here:

    Something that I found fascinating was that there is actually an entry for this nonsense on “how-stuff-works”

    http://science.howstuffworks.c.....threat.htm

    I think I would rather learn how motors work instead.

    R.Elgin, I noticed the most popular seach on howstuffworks was for “body armor”–is that what brought you there? :)

    Thanks for the link, Michael. There’s some interesting stuff in there! According to that article, there may have been no fewer than three coup attempts in NK in the 1990s!!!??? (And no mention of any since 1999.)
