Ok, I got you have way there. Go to You Tube for the rest

As long as I can remember, we have always had ups and downs. What's funny, I look at todays weather and compare it to the records of highs and lows. There maybe broken records here and there but, it only a degree or two either way. I would be more alarmed if it was 20 or 30 degrees. I never liked Al gore anyway. lol.

LoL...thats rich. People living in glass houses.....

It's crapola, period. "Global Warming" is natural or non-existent. We didn't create it and we're not able to prevent it. That's God's work.

We've seen seasonal temps relatively the same since we've been able to measure temps at all. Even if we had record breaking temps commonly, so what? If they were daily, all summer and more importantly, all winter long... I might get concerned. Probably not, but maybe.

We're in the midst of "global warming" according to a bunch of people who bring merely opinion instead of proof and yet, we had one of the harshest winters since the 1970's across most of America. At some point, it needs to sink in that our global temperatures have not been changing to a point of endangering the things we do or the way we live... WE do that.

Prove where I said ANY of those things I accused the "Environ-whakos" of saying to describe anyone.

I know, I know....its completely unlike you to attack someones character, isn't it?

Only people who have NO character.
But you still haven't answered my question.

On nuclear power.....

Our Navy has been operating SAFELY on nuclear power since before I was born.

Surrounded by very heavy security and safety standards as well as highly trained people to do the maintenance and operating of these power and propulsion plants has been the key to this level of performance.

Nuclear powered ships and submarines are still being built and operated today with more on the way.

The Federal Government doesn't seem to have a problem with this aspect of nuclear power at all....so it's NOT the Government that's standing in the way.

My question or maybe a more accurate word would be observation in all this is why is there such a problem with nuclear power plants to supply electricity to the country??????

One answer could be that the environmentalists don't have a say in what goes on in the Navy as far as a choice of power plants is concerned.

What we most often see are.......

A group of protesters and negative media coverage coupled with......

More of the PANIC DRIVEN response from the Anti-Nuke crowd when a new nuclear power plant is proposed.

Panic driven response......Is kinda typical when ordinary people just don't have an understanding of a given situation...or enough facts to form an educated opinion. I'll even go so far as to say an unwillingness to seek out the facts before they come out against something like this.

With the same stringent safety and training guidelines in place, there's absolutely no reason that the entire country couldn't be enjoying cheaper nuclear power as opposed to the fossil fuels we use currently.

I'm not even saying that these plants ought to be run by the military...although that wouldn't be a bad idea in my opinion given the level of training the people get and continue to get while doing their jobs.

We're talking something along the line of two years of school before going to the fleet to actually perform the jobs they've been trained to do.

Use ex-military. Most nuclear power plant operators and maintenance types are already military trained in the first place. Simply hold the civilian power plants to the same strict operating guidelines as the military.

You're OBVIOUSLY a part of the problem.

Not by much!

I think the government is part of the problem rather than the cure(as usual) in this case. The fact is, we all should know that nuke power we make is essentially safe. We had one "meltdown" that I know of, and nobody died as a result as far as I can tell. That would be Three Mile Island. If there are more, I don't recall them.

The reason they don't supply more power already is the lack of use. We have like 100 of them and could use hundreds more. The litigation ended not so long ago(from memory of reading about it) and I hope to see more plants built, personally.

This is the primary opposition, and always has been. But Congress "hears them out" and did so for seemingly decades.

INDEED!

Wouldn't argue against that either, particularly NAVY personnel. The bonus is, they can be stationed at the plant and provide security at the same time.

A friend of mine works in the Perry Power Plant, Perry, Ohio. He's an old "Navy nuke" himself, and is a trainer at the facility. It works!

Three Mile Island.....

Wasn't and shouldn't be described as a "Meltdown"

I consider that problem as little more than a bad case of power plant indigestion as opposed to the problems seen in places like Chernobyl.

That WAS a meltdown.

Movies like the "China Syndrome" blew the problems at Three Mile Island way out of proportion as the movies tend to do. One only has to look at the star of the movie (Jane "Hanoi Jane" Fonda) to figure out what the purpose or message of that film was all about. Anti American nuclear power...just like everything else Anti American she was all about in those years.

My point is that Nuclear power is safe...cheap too by comparison. Just don't build the plants too close to fault lines...like anywhere in California.

Arizona or Nevada would be close enough.
