I don't know what's going on these days but it seems very shortsighted to me. In the name and cause of our need for affordable power many people have jumped on the nuclear bandwagon.

Yesterday on 'Capital News'they had a long segment debating the question. The consensus was that it is time to go nuclear- it's cleaner, more efficient, and so on.

The part I can't get past is that they can't even find a way to safely dispose of the waste product (which no one seems to care about). Given that, how in the name of all that's holy can anyone support it?

He called to the people inside:
"All right, so far!"

The people on the segment all agreed that 'Chernobyl' happened because it was poorly designed and badly maintained.
