I also agree with Albert Einstein who said, "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits."<BR/><BR/>Expanding nuclear power to combat global warming is the worst idea ever. Let's poison our planet more so it won't get warmer -- hurray! (And how ironic that the proposed site of the new plant is the "Peace River" area).<BR/><BR/>One thousand tons of uranium fuel typically generates 100,000 tons of tailings and 3.5 million liters of liquid waste. The high-level waste remains dangerously radioactive for 240,000 years or more. Since the world’s pro-nuclear leadership is so concerned about the welfare of our planet and believes that nuclear power is completely safe, I propose we put all of the existing and new radioactive waste in their back yards so they can keep a close eye on it for us. I’m sure the Native Americans won’t mind if we <A HREF="http://ncseonline.org/nae/docs/knudsen.html" REL="nofollow"> remove it from their reservations</A>.<BR/><BR/>Thanks to you and Gord for caring, Theresa.DChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16638079335012155807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018539519561702876.post-13202554537858415122008-01-05T18:00:00.000-07:002008-01-05T18:00:00.000-07:00Ok, I've fixed it!
