Re: New look at nuclear power

Enow, where would you propose a geothermal power plant be built that could provide me with the same cheap power I currently receive because I live with in a reasonable distance to at least two nuclear power plants? Our grid sells to others and they pay through the nose because they do not want a nuclear plant in their area. Transmitting that power from us to them makes it even more expensive for them, wind power, where hurricanes routinely strike? Solar, where hurricanes will almost certainly blow it all away every few years? Nuclear is cheap, safe, and reliable. Now tell me why you hate nuclear so much? why do you insist it is uneconomical when it obviously is very economical where I live. Why do you hate it so? Seen a few too many 1950s horror movies with mutant people with two heads? bashing nuclear is easy because it's not cool to disagree with anyone who knocks it and yet I do not have brown outs, I do not pay out the nose for power, i do not worry from one day to the next if i can afford to run my ac. Nuclear works, the more modern it is the better it works. Most of the data used by these antinuclear people is out dated and is only applicable to old out dated power plants that probably should never have been built. often the places the plants are built; impose so much regulatory rules and laws they cannot even open and this is due to antinuclear crazies suing them into oblivion at ever turn. I like nuclear power, it's good for all of us, it's reliable economical, and safe!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
