re: #354 marjoriemoon

I saw it last night. I don’t find his thoughts on nuclear power ill-informed in the least. Actually they are very well informed. He’s concerned about the waste. He should be. No he shouldn’t. He should call France. He’s concerned about how, where and the cost of building nuclear reactors. He should be. No, he should be concerned about the cost of building less proven power generation technologies, the ones he’s talking about.He’s concerned about the long-term abundance of uranium. He should be. No, he should ask someone how long they think the current supply might last us. See my prior link.He’s concerned about safety. He should be, although they are pretty safe today, certainly as safe as oil refineries. The only problem is that if you have a problem with nuclear, it’s far more dangerous than a problem at an oil refinery.Because France, who gets 90% of their power from reactors, is burning?

I don’t find him disingenuous or a money whore which is how the Right always sees him. He’s done more for this country than probably 10 of us here put together.

I find him disingenuous for asking questions that have already been answered. Then again, that’s one of my definitions for ‘disingenuous’, so it wasn’t too big of a leap for me.
