So everybody knows that if you get an unbroken Fluorescent light and break it, it will make a loud boom and explode...Right?
Well in an upcoming continuation of "Abandoned Train Yard Pt.1" by iBmx, the site of exploration has alot of cool shit it in, just like whats in the title.
Me, TOB3RT(Toby, Tobert) iBmx, and SSBB found about 800 Fluorescent lights in random barrels and boxes.
Needless to say we had some fun...
Well there will be a Part 2 and Part 3 with about 500 pictures in each. (Give or take a little)
They both should be done before June, so have something to look forward to.
5* To any poster in this thread because of my recent upgrade.

Twas fun.
For the record, I think there were probably more than 800 because there were more in other places; just not bulk.

I think we busted most of them, except maybe a barrel full and most of the overhead lights.

I don’t have dial up but most of the UE eggs of normal length (between 20 and 50 pictures) still take a while to load (maybe three to five minutes). 500 pics is going to suck to load so it had better be worth it.
Oh and you know that eggs can only have 500 words right? That’s going to make adding captions a bitch.

Wait, only 500 words?!?!
Shit i didn’t know that.
So...there is about 15 words in a photobucket URL, and with 1000 pictures that will be 15000 words;therefore 30 eggs? x.x

Apply the captions directly to the images with Paint.

I think he meant 5000, 500 is far too little.

Paint would take way to long, and we will just have to take some pictures out.

Looking forward to the eggs. I doubt the eggs have a 500 word limit, maybe 5000.
Anyway, The more eggs there is the more E.P you get..

Be sure to stand up wind when y’all break them lights, they are full of some bad shit.
Don’t breathe it!!

Part of the delay of the World Trade Center cleanup was all the mercury at the site, thanks to thousands of broken fluorescent tubes. It might have been safer for you to take the tubes and throw them off a cliff or a bridge like javelins. Mercury is foul shit.

Am I correct in believing the shit within fluorescent lights is a powerful carcinogen?

Quote Wikipedia: A fluorescent lamp or fluorescent tube is a gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor. The excited mercury atoms produce short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor to fluoresce, producing visible light.
The whole bit about containing mercury vapor makes this idea sound pretty bad.
