Well Jim, is there anything we can do to avoid the use of the "n-word:? =
You know, the medical community did that with MRI ... it used to have the =
word "nuclear" in front of it, until (I'm sure primarily as a PR move) =
they quit using the "n-word" so that the public would be more "accepting".
Anybody out there creative enough to come up with another set of names for =
"nuclear reactor" and "nuclear power plant"?
Just my $0.02 worth ...

Re "Mr. Bush Reverses Course" (editorial, March 15):
The secret word is "nuclear." If we want to reduce carbon dioxide =
emissions
in the long run (the only thing that counts), we will "go nuclear." But
politicians, Republicans and Democrats alike, are afraid to utter the =
word.
