Why is his blog called the Hiroshima Syndrome? Here's the explanation: The Hiroshima Syndrome is the psychological distress which may be defined as the mortal fear of nuclear energy...
Corrice then lists the three misconceptions that are the basis of this fear. Actually, I suggest you read his essay on the subject.
And now, I have managed to get off my own subject: the 152nd Carnival itself.
It's a great Carnival. Here's the note that Corrice sent to those of us who contributed to the Carnival.
The Carnival
This week, we are proud to have a submittal from Massachusetts Institute of Technology concerning the movie Pandora’s Promise. Other blog topics include – using risk vs. benefit as a framework for analyzing nuclear opinions, the nuclear waste storage program in the Netherlands, a former NRC chairman says he is now antinuclear, how smart-grid ads can be demeaning to women, hypocritical environmentalists, and the resurrection of FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) in the Japanese press.
