TechNoir's Eulogy

I didn't want to post anything anectdotal because of the likelyhood of getting blasted. However, despite what the official reports say, vets in the area will tell you about the sky-rocketed cases of luekemia in felines (who are more susceptable) and regular doctors talk about increases in cancer in the region. Unfortunately, one person's facts are another person's playthings. Numbers can easily be manipulated and evedince can be hidden. In the end, I know the fear and terror of what I personally went through has put firmly against nuclear power. Peronally, I don't think "coal or nuclear" is a fair argument. As has been discussed here, there are many alternative sources of power. And we should pursue those alternatives. The primary reason are currently avoiding alternative forms of energy are fuel is politics. A few people with a LOT of money have that money invested in coal and oil and they want to make as much as they can for as long as they can. There is a long list of serious problems with nuclear power, such as, what do other countries do? The U.S. has forbidden some countries from using nuclear power. What should they do? In the end, we have been given numerous possibilities for providing cheap and even free energy that does not leave behind toxic pollutants (see both coal and nuclear). Why not use them?
