[ RadSafe ] RE: The hot and cold of history & journalistic credibility

[Sandy Perle]

Brent ... absolutely. The issue with not only nuclear power operation and
maintenance, with respect to safety, as well as waste storage, has always
been a political issue and not a scientific issue. Nuclear power generation
in total has proven itself to be safe, economical and non-polluting. The
issues that face the USA and other parts of the world if left to the
scientists, would result in no issues. We can operate safely and we can
store waste safely. The politicians need to look out for those who they
represent and stop focusing on those who continually try to spin their
stories that ultimately would have more of a detrimental effect on humanity,
if the nuclear power option were eliminated.

Regards,

Sandy

The problems there aren't scientific, they're political.
