You can also hear trains really well if you're both in a concrete tube.

It's pretty clear from the comments that people don't really know anything about lithium batteries. OP actually knows what their talking about for the most part.

First, lithium batteries contain little to no elemental lithium. Just because the molecule has lithium in it doesn't mean it'll react violently with water. Think about table salt. Just because elemental sodium reacts violently with water doesn't mean table salt will.

Secondly, it's not an electrical fire. A lithium battery fire is an exothermic, self sustaining chemical reaction.

Thirdly, that chemical reaction is self oxidizing, so you can't just smother the fire to put it out.

The only way to stop a lithium battery fire is to either let it burn itself out (which is bad because the smoke is highly toxic), or cool it down enough so it can't self sustain. Water is very good at this.

Cooling down the reaction is the only way to stop the fires. The chemical reaction is self oxidizing so you can't smother it.

Because that's how you put out a lithium battery fire. The fact that the batteries use a lithium based molecule doesn't mean it'll react violently with water.

Sodium is highly reactive with water, but table salt isn't.

You can't choke the reaction since it's self oxidizing. Cooling down the reaction is the only way to stop it.

Halon extinguishers won't work. Lithium battery fires are self oxidizing.

It's not an electric fire. Lithium battery fires are a self-oxidizing runaway exothermic chemical reaction. The only way to stop it is to cool it down.

Gotta love the nifty fifty.

I think people misunderstood you.

I took your statement to mean that we should let the South African wildlife kill and eat him.

I don't think it'll ever be gotten rid of. At it's core, pedophilia is a fetish, not functionally different from being into feet. And like some fetishes, it doesn't mean a person will ever act on it.

I'm sure that many of them hate the fact that they are wired wrong. What really needs to happen is for them to have the ability to seek professional help without worrying about legal repercussions.

It's also possible that it's a case of the employees not giving a fuck. Otherwise KFC would have to be buying pullets from the poultry farmers, which doesn't make much sense from a financial standpoint for either side.

Regardless, I highly doubt it's intentional.

That's just semantics, like businesses being banned from giving a surcharge for using a credit card, but they can give a discount for cash. It amounts to the same thing.
