Was discussing this thread with my husband (who works in nuke field). Both of you have made excellent points and posts...and DH wants me to add that many portions of Japan HAVE power (ie., heat, cooking sources, refridgeration, communication) BECAUSE of the well designed nuclear based power grid in Japan.
Lives are being saved because power system/grid there is working.
It’s a shame that the environmentalists haven’t spent their energy helping to design bullet proof reactor designs. Instead they’ve spread lies and propaganda to scare the living feces out of people.
“Lives are being saved because power system/grid there is working.”
HA... You mean lives are being saved because they have something other than Nuclear power that is still working. The nuke plants are all shut down. To bad the other 30% is not non-nuclear. Because then all the lights would be on.
