Can you name a safer, cheaper, more practical energy source for the NYC area? Can you outline what specific threats Indian Point might face and what the outcome of such threats might be? Indian Point hysterics are nothing more than anti-nuclear propaganda on the part of wealth-reditributing greens.
i never said IP wasn't safe or impractical or that it faced threats - according to the owners of IP it provides 23% of area's needs - it generates 4.8 million kilowatts and sells 3.9 million kilowatts to customers outside its retail service area - link to owners of IP below

Ahhhh.. I can see it now (long toke of peyote....)
Ahhhh....a couple of VERY smart terrorists leap the fence at Indian Point, dodge/run to the casks, pull out their box-cutters, and spill NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION over millions of NYers, right?
No?? OK, try this. Same opening scenes, except the terrorists use soda-bottle bombs to SPRAY nuclear death over millions of NYers.
Well, then how about they....they....ABDUCT the dry casks, placing them on the backs of their trusty camels, and hot-foot it to Central Park West, then dumping the load, trailing NUCLEAR DEATH behind them for millions of NYers.
NO??
You don't think any of these scenarios is possible?
Then you fail the Time Magazine Reporter Test.
Try the Washington Times, bud.
