Jim,



We can think about it, but consider also that "nuclear" was a replacement

for "atomic."  :-)

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 ...

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.
