Nuclear Power is sooooo safe - as seen just recently in Japan, and not long ago in Chernobyl, Russia, and right here in the good ole U.S. of A. at Three Mile Island. The fact is, you never know what mother nature will do, and the nuclear folks have all lied to us. You're foolish to believe that nuclear power is safe, because when there are accidents, they are massive - they kill, and nuclear radiation stays around forever. Don't be fooled by what the people who work for the nuclear power industry say, and if you really think nuclear power is so safe, why don't you go to Japan and hang out at the reactors that are currently failing. It's really no big deal, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033288879708780106.post-31787552010052122272011-03-08T20:55:31.552-05:002011-03-08T20:55:31.552-05:00I don't like leaving more fingerprints on the ...I don't like leaving more fingerprints on the internet than necessary.

I am pro-nuclear. I concentrate on explaining nuclear energy and Vermont Yankee at this time. What I call explaining, you call evangelizing. <br /><br />Whatever.<br /><br />In terms of names, by the way. Um. Names? Not even a pseudonym? Just Anonymous???Meredith Angwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02737538041807740424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033288879708780106.post-341312816235231582011-03-08T19:01:33.641-05:002011-03-08T19:01:33.641-05:00I made my point quite clearly.

It "educates" them about nuclear energy and the wonders of Vermont Yankee. <br /><br />And that's being generous. Evangelizing nuclear energy and Vermont Yankee is closer to the mark.<br /><br />Just calling a spade a spade and wondering why you don't do the same.<br /><br />Thank youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033288879708780106.post-34202003715410488082011-03-07T23:46:17.361-05:002011-03-07T23:46:17.361-05:00Hey Anonymous, if you have rational arguments to m...Hey Anonymous, if you have rational arguments to make contradicting the points made by The Energy Education Project, just make them.<br /><br />IF you have any.<br /><br />Even if your points aren't rational, make them anyway.

And nearly all links, articles, and reports are pro-Vermont Yankee arguments.<br /><br />It would seem you need to alter the name to the Nuclear Energy Education Project. The true motivation for the organization is quite evident.<br /><br />Thank youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
