[ RadSafe ] Future of Nuclear Power - Thought for the Day.

I have a couple of sayings (that I believe I made up) that express much
the same thought:

"Anything worth doing is worth doing well.  Anything not worth doing is
not worth doing at all.  It takes a gifted person to spot the
difference."

"The right answer to the wrong question isn't productive, either."

"Velocity, not speed."

All of our [social] problems arise out of doing the wrong thing righter.
The more efficient you are at doing the wrong thing, the wronger you
become.  It is much better to do the right thing wronger than the wrong
thing righter!  If you do the right thing wronger and correct it, you
get better.  ( S. Stearn.  A Farewell to a Brilliant Thinker - Financial
Times, 11/10/2009).

Could this be an apt thought for the way this country has spent the past
30 years mired in indecision?
