"My social security number is SSN# 270-35-4516
I like to use my Discover Card: #6012 0456 4056 4450 The security code on the back is 108.
I also have a Visa: #4520 3045 3023 3045
My mother’s maiden name was Haarlambert. They ask that as a security question a lot, but I never really need it because I don’t ever forget my all-purpose password: Gandalf
In conclusion, I’m just a regular guy with many diverse interests such as enjoying my high-end electronics and going out of town on frequent vacations."
Heh. - FizixMan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+62Thorium is the new meth. Didn't you get the memo?
- JamesWilson, on 10/10/2007, -4/+57This is your brain...this is your brain on science
- Frnnkdlxx, on 10/10/2007, -1/+52Move out of that town.
- Professr, on 10/10/2007, -4/+53Oh god, digg up for epic geek win.
- kapsar, on 10/10/2007, -4/+41Yea, his face looks all ***** up. But if you focus on his eyes, they are extremely intent, look intelligent, and they are clear. His eyes look like no matter what he's drive to do what he wants to do. He has ambition to do it. It's a shame that he's banned from working in the field he wants to. Some one should hire him and safely put him to work. control him and put it to good use. I wish i had that kind of intensity about something.
- BevansDesign, on 10/10/2007, -3/+35I wish I could say that the first thing I thought of when I saw this story was NOT WoW, but I can't.
- otheruser, on 10/10/2007, -0/+29Here's a follow-up by Ken Silverstein (the author of the original piece):
http://www.harpers.org/archive/2007/08/hbc-90000749 - wbeavis, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27Don't make him angry. You won't like him when he's angry.
- Speedy7, on 10/10/2007, -1/+25A thousand eyes!... EPA! EPA! EEEPA!
- sephiroth965, on 10/10/2007, -0/+23Looking at his face I assume there's a leak....
- orph3us, on 10/10/2007, -4/+22unless he blows up the neighborhood or theres a leak
- xGeneric, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18He looks like Butters! Well, after reading the story, more like Professor Chaos!
- Ghoztt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+16It's too bad his interests weren't nurtured in an environment where he could safely work in the nuclear industry and help other people at the same time.
- georgetds, on 10/10/2007, -7/+23This ain't a Scene, it's a Arm's Race!
- Frnnkdlxx, on 10/10/2007, -24/+39Kids like this are exactly the reason you don't f*ck with America... I mean come on! A teenager builds a nuclear device! lol. Comes close to constructing nuclear weapon!
Hell, and people still believe in the war on terror. Its really just a war OF terror, like the book 1984. - diggslinger, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13WTF!? A Boy Scout can get Atomic Energy Merit Badge? look a the some requirements to get one:
6. Do any THREE of the following:
a. Build an electroscope. Show how it works. Put a radiation source inside it. Explain any difference seen.
b. Make a simple Geiger counter. Tell the parts. Tell which types of radiation the counter can spot. Tell how many counts per minute of what
radiation you have found in your home.

- UnstableMind, on 10/10/2007, -4/+17I hope he makes a portable one.
Also, I'm surprised that no one has approached him to help in their research. - BackEnThaWomb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13quick, to the AH!
- hoovcluck, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15That is exactly what I thought. They have the billboards up all over here.
- transcendz, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13Yours is even more scary ! Too white IMHO.
- treeburner, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14What this kid needs is a government grant and his own lab. The kid is dedicated to his work and with a safe lab and money he could probably do some cool *****. On the other hand I would keep a close eye on him.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -12/+24if he dies later on from complications to his exposure, would he be considered for a darwin award?
- FizixMan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12Image still working fine for me.
Either way, I went and uploaded a mirror for you: http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/682/davidhahnwo4.jpg - Veritate, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12Only if he fails to pass on his genes. Though, one could argue they're not his genes anymore.
- arjie, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13That's because of Mako.
- rexCo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Congratulations idiot, it IS a joke.
- happytron, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10He was far from constructing a nuclear weapon (in the usual sense), although he was probably well on his way to making a pretty nasty dirty bomb.
- jcardia, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10Come on Guys! Nothing a little photoshop can't fix!
http://i13.tinypic.com/4t71qw4.jpg - swrlyhrly, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8If anyone is interested and missed it on the site, this is a very long and in depth article about him and what he did.

I read through part of it so far and its quite interesting. - 4Prophecy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8I'm pretty sure his credited name is "squeaky-voiced teen."
- sephiroth965, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Why's he being dugg down?
- inspecality, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Most Darwin award nominees have also built their own nuclear breeder reactor, so I dunno...
- iamlutheran, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Suddenly, I lost my appetite for the leftover pizza in my fridge.
- Fracture98, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9...or just corrosive acne.
- jls777, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Read the story about when he was a kid. That will explain everything!
- chrisbarr, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7smoke detectors contain small amounts of radioactive material, thats how they detect smoke.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoke_detectors#Ionization_detector - NSResponder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6That's a hell of a way to commit suicide.
-jcr - chubbybubba, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8Man... I would be pissed off if I was his neighbor... (Unless I got some super powers or something.)
- drspacemonkey, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Doin' the things a Thorium can?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8Wow...talk about devotion.
- corejava2, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6this might be retarded, but looking at the link provided, someone can have a prefix SSN of 270 if they were born in Ohio.
- spartan777, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5one year from now: THIS JUST IN: mad scientist holds world for ransom with 500 h-bombs. looks an awful lot like that Hahn kid who was in the news a year ago. his name also happens to be "Hahnzor."
- cyberdork, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Funny, because the two studies of the DoD and DoE both concluded that a dirty bomb is very ineffective and it's aftermath not as dirty as you think. Actually they say that the only casualties will be due to the subsequent panic, not because of the bomb or radiation.
- xvertigox, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6http://web.archive.org/web/20001215100600/www.findarticles.com/cf_0/m1111/n1782_v297/21281407/print.jhtml
His story would make a good movie. -
