oh Yea? I would eliminate the source of the Pu 239, going to every
nuclear power plant and taking the irradiated fuel rod cannisters
and killing all those people who work at the plants. Then I would
put those cannisters on the next Ariane rocket scheduled to launch,
and send them into space and eliminate those people at the launch site
too. And just in case some Pu 239 was being transported on the
highways, I would kill every truck driver. Oh, and to make sure more
Pu 239 wasn't going to be transported on the roads, I would take
some explosives and blow up all of the roads. Then to make sure the
trains didn't transport Pu 239, I would put garbage on the railroad
lines to crash the trains. Then after that, I would blow up all
off-road vehicles with their drivers. But just in case someone would
try to carry Pu 239 in their backpack on a hike, I would save more
innocent lives by blowing up all of the hikers. Then I would
eliminate anyone else's temptation to carry Pu 239, and blow up all
hiking paths. Then just to be sure, I would starlift the outer
layers of the Sun burn the Earth to a cinder.

yeah <grunt grunt>

me too
