    I should banned about 25% of you but...I still know that you care about the EGG. I'm I wrong? We had an issue that needed to be fixed. We Fixed them, welcome back.

    I could joke but no matter how obscure someone would be offended this day and age.
    I had a porn star as my avatar for three months and no one said anything.
    Pretty sure I referenced it, @JohnInCarolina should be able to confirm

    Well, it’s not like we all assumed that was actually you in the avatar.  That would’ve been more like @nolanicerack, amirite?

    Well, like John always says, there are three kinds of people.

    I thought the roundy roundy was from sparky sparky or steam or both

    Looks totally accurate to me... @Ozzie_Isaac but I have been out of the business for a while.  B)

    We will need Frank to fully adjudicate the question, but my understanding is US submarines (the best in the world) use steam turbines to roundy roundy.

    The Chinese use a steam->sparky spark->roundy roundy configuration.

    Both is the right answer with the technology and noise reduction of the sparky sparky advancing to the point where it will likely become the more dominant source of the power to the roundy roundy.

    Doesn’t make sense that it would only be one type whereas if it were both it would have more total power and option to run in whatever mode is most quiet.

    The Chinese do have hot rock powered submarines FWIW.  However, their marching ability far out weighs their submarine prowess.

    Yes they do - about a dozen. I sit corrected.

    No they will be solar powered. Or the navy is genetically engineering massive electric eels to recharge them.

    Maybe they get a tax credit, going that route?
