Fat Man (last year he explained to us the uranium used in Little Boy
was
captured from the Nazis)


Not uranium,but Little boy itself ( check out for German markings)


some proof please.

Captured German uranium WAS used in the atomic bombs dropped over
Japan.

Giggle-snort!

I've heard of and seen the photo of the Fat Man with the
supposed German "Warning or Danger" label on it (down low near the
tail fins)but honestly I couldn't read what the little arrow was
pointing to.

Yo, Genius! Guess what? Fat Man was a *plutonium* weapon. And you were
saying...?

Uranium ore produces U-235 and U-238. U-238 can be made into Plutonium
by putting it in a reactor, fool. Thus, the captured German uranium
supplied to the Manhatten project could have been used with any of the
three A-bombs detonated: Trinity, Little Boy, or Fat Man.
The fact that captured German uranium was supplied to the Manhatten
Project:

BEFORE any of the bombs were detonated. This does not count the 560kg
of uranium seized from German U-boat of which 4 kg of U-235 could have
been extratced. A small amount, but a contributor to Little Boy which
recent information suggests was one-fifth German (or 12kg).
As for Fat Man, I have no idea.

Amazing how the Nazi uranium purified itself at a much higher rate than the
U.S. uranium according to your theory.

I need you to explain to me how a few crude gas centrifuges can produce so much
weapons grade uranium in 2 months. I suggest you have no idea how a gas
centrifuge works.
