You know what's so funny about all this global warming business? While the
politicians hem and haw, and make outrageous claims about the world ending
in 50 years, or the global economy going bankrupt making environmental
concessionswhile all that pointless noise is going on...WE THE

On a tangent, if you want a good detective novel, read "Wolves Eat Dogs" by
Martin Cruz Smith. It is an Arkady Renko novel. Part of it takes place in
the area around Chernobyl 14 years after the disaster. Lots of interesting
factoids about life in the area can be picked up.

that's true -- we have been hearing a lot about coal because of Desert

Yup. Not to mention all the Mercury and Sulphur Dioxide the plants
spew out. Even if you toss out the global warming argument entirely,
coal is many many *MANY* times worse than Nuke.

Oh, and details of the RBMK reactor design, including retrofitted safety

Chernobyl was built using a Soviet RBMK reactor design. Because they have no
containment vessel around the reactor core, RBMK reactors are fundamentally
unsafe from a Western safety standards point of view. When there is a leak

I understand that France gets a notable percentage of its energy from

I'm all for nuclear power, but
Mine is for the very reasons you state.
Humans are operating them.
And humans, unless _really_ motivated, are selfish, lazy, and not worried
about the "public good".
Add greed and inherent dishonesty to the mix, and it gets scary.

There was another big one in the late 80s.
Never made the news. All parties hushed it up. (US Gov, state gov and
business).
I only know about it because I was employed to hand-enter documents seized
by the gov (nrc) from the bosses and secretaries offices. Apparently the
plant lied to the gov abo

Leaps and bounds. Chernobyl, for instance, was an outdated reactor
design that was operating way past its prime. the reason the accident
happened the way it did was because of the way the control rods were

And we learned from them.
When was the last major nuclear plant mishap? Those are the only two I
know of.

I wonder how many other countries have nuclear reactors providing

Does he advocate moving to nuclear? Seems that the modern nuclear power has
a lot less environmental impact but is shunned by the clergy of global
