This current Greenpeace brain fart is 9.0 on the Sphincter Scale.
"0" - Zero like our president
In other words, Ted Kennedy killed more people than nuclear power in the USA
Yeah and so is the sun.
Build more nuclear!!!!!!!!!!!
India and China are.
Greenpeace is unsafe.
so is driving a car, lets ban all cars
You know those large batteries that solar/wind power uses are unsafe too
Let me see, did more people die from the quake and tsunami or radiation poisoning?
Fire is always unsafe too.
You are absolutely correct....there is an element of danger in virtually everything we do. I would almost be willing to bet that more people have been killed driving to or from coal fired plants than have ever died as a result of friendly use of nuclear power. Greenpeace is the new face of socialism and their most extreme efforts will have no effect on the environment at all.Whackos with nothing better to do than harrass other people going about their business. Nuclear power plants are a Godsend in these times. They are clean, efficient, safe, ....and whatever good adjectives you can come up with....Do you realize that our nuclear powered naval vehicles don't have to be refueled for YEARS......A couple of million gallons of diesel fuel saved every few weeks adds up in a hurry!!!!
Greenpeace says the same thing about a bar of soap and a razor.
“Japan’s nuclear plants were built with the latest technology,” in 1971.
Because windmills are SOOOOOO damn efficient. Gawd, I hate these FN hippies.
Skin Greenpeacers instead. Oh, wait...
"This proves once and for all that nuclear power cannot ever be safe,"
9.0 Earthquake, 30 foot tsunami, nuclear power plants do not affect human health therefore they are always dangerous. ?????!!!!!!!??????
I wouldn't trust him to make fries at McDonalds.
There is NOTHING that is totally safe.
You could die posting on the Internet if a meteor hit your house.
All decisions have risk and reward. Focusing only on the risk is the act of people who are unable to cope with life itself.
How many people die every day driving their car? How many people die because of lack of electricity in the third worlds? I am 100% certain Nuclear power has a better safety record than most every other occupation or industrial activity on the planet.
Nuclear Power is VERY SAFE. How many incidents of this type have happened to date? ONE. TMI was a different cause, was analyzed, and measures were put into place. Chernobyl was a different Rx design and a stupid intentional act. We don't even know what the end result of this incident will be yet. We don't have any data from the event to analyze yet. Jumping to conclusions is for idiots.
< / rant >
I can't stand this anymore and this has only been going on since Friday. I see Lieberman talking about a nuclear construction "pause". We cannot afford to stand still on power. Our current energy policy has gotten us nowhere and we are losing coal plants to the greenies. Windmills and solar panels are not up to the task. WE ARE IN TROUBLE IN THIS COUNTRY IF WE ALLOW THE LEFT TO CONTINUE TO STRANGLE ENERGY PRODUCTION. IT HAS TO STOP!
There, this really is < / rant >
No, it was the two nukes we stopped WWII with back in the 40s. < /greenpeace>

Another one bites the dust!!!!!!!!
More people were killed by water than by nuclear damage in this disaster. Ban water.
Its the same situation our deteriorating oil and gas infrastructure faces. They’ve regulated them to the point where risk is cost effective.
A few years back when the Wolverine pipeline burst in Jackson Michigan they were forced to shut the line down permanently despite the fact that they were nearing the end of a total overhaul of the line.
