Ruth,
    Of course what you say is true from a phenomenological standpoint. What
I was alluding to was that public attitudes toward both nuclear power and
global warming are based largely on misinformation. That's why I hate to see
flaunting the threat of global warming as a means of selling nuclear power.
With or without this threat nuclear power is a good idea that shouldn't need
phoney arguments  to support it.
