    Since Burns is childless, he won't be leaving his fortune to his children, and so could give it all to Yale.

    As long as your child only designs a nuclear reactor and doesn't try to actually build one in his backyard like the boy scout . He tried to build a breeder reactor, whatever that is, in his backyard. The nuclear Regulatory Commission made a statement saying that he did not achieve criticality, but the contamination caused his backyard to be a Superfund Site. Thanks for the video and thumbs up.

    The thing about Frank Grimes and that entire episode is that it's basically "What would happen if a regular person from our reality found themselves in the simpsons universe and had to work with Homer?" It doesn't help that the guys backstory is that he's an orphan who sacrificed everything to get educated as a Nuclear technician and is very much Homers opposite, while homer just showed up on day one and got a job he was severely underqualified for.

    Indian Point, New York is the location of a Nuclear Power Plant. It is controversial for many reasons not the least of which is the geological fault line upon which is was built.
    "Childless" is important because it implies there is no one to leave his estate to and the University hopes to receive his wealth when he dies.

    I'm actually a tutor who used to work in industry, like Homer. That's what is happening today. School teachers, who I've never been but work alongside, are leaving in droves because they spend more time doing paperwork than teaching. The education services are now run by multitudes of managers who are on far more money than tutors or teachers but have the education of ten-year-olds. I was asked, and did, teach my own manager and a senior manager both maths to a 16-year-old level because they had the maths equivalent of a nine-year-old child. That is how mad it is in the West.

    When you said "this would be my child", it hit me right in the feels, knowing that smart women choose to have so few children. Since IQ is largely genetic, there is that contradictory demand on smart women to have many children but to also use their precious time to contribute to the knowledge of mankind. It's not clear which one would be the greater contribution over the long run.
    Luckily I don't have to deal with such problems. I'm a man and a rather smart one if I say so myself. So naturally I have chosen to spend my life watching RUclips and contribute to the advancement of humanity in the comment section.
