In Response To: Re: ya ever think... (Speedy)

: Depending on the power source, chances are that's not true.

: For instance, a nuclear bomb unleashes a hellacious amount of power, but if
: you destroy it with say, a big conventional bomb, you don't have a nuclear
: explosion. In fact, the ONLY way to trigger a nuclear bomb is to start the
: fission reaction, a process which in itself is very precise and takes a
: lot of fine-tuned machinery and technology. (In essence, this is why
: nuclear bombs are actually safer to store than conventional bombs.)

: Nuclear power sources work in much the same way. You may have an assload of
: plutonium held somewhere to use for power, but it's not gonna do anything
: (except, in plutonium's case, give you cancer) unless that one reaction
: goes as it should.

: 343's and Halo's power source could be much the same- in fact, it SHOULD be
: that way. Having enough power for Halo and 343 to run for that amount of
: time held in such a fashion as a conventional bomb is just asking to shoot
: yourself in the knee. For Halo to have a constant, long lasting power
: source, it needs either replenishable (solar, or maybe some cool
: magnet/gravity type power that is fueled by threshold's gravity and
: magnetic energy. That would kick ass) or storeable tpes of power. Hence,
: upon it's desctruction, Halo wouldn't have sent a huge death wave of dark
: doominess or whatever.

: That was long and pointless, eh?

That wasn't pointless. It's actually pretty cool. You should post things like that more often!
