RE: Fw: Stop the madness
You're right--I did delete an extra word as I was editing my own work. It
should read that eventually . . . they <get> it out of their systems. And if
you or anyone else wants to hold me up as a poor example of pronuclear
environmentalism, I have no problem with that. Except to do that, they have
to actually use some part of what I write, and risk losing some of their own
readers to logic instead of emotion.
BTW, I added instead of multiplied last week in the last equation I inserted
into a spreadsheet I developed to calculate the dose from a traversing
source, and didn't realize it until after I shut off the computer. Lucky
thing I remembered to correct it this morning. Just thought you'd like to
know I'm not perfect in that either. Come to think of it, I'm not perfect in
much of anything. But I surely do admire those of you who can communicate in
multiple languages, especially in a technical field. It must give you a
tremendous sense of self-satisfaction. But then, I suppose a lot of things
can do that. And I guess, too, that some have to settle for that.

I've always assumed that their lives had so little purpose that they were
looking for a cause--a reason to exist. Obviously there are other
reasons--personal relationships, money, etc. Eventually, like the Jane
Fondas of the world, I guess they it out of their systems.

Jack, you really give them good ammunition. They can cite this message as
the "real pronuclear opinion". Maybe they should correct your language
before - or maybe they could argument, that these pro-nuclears are not even
able to write a correct English sentence.

We need to continually recognize publicly that representing an environmental
group in a public statement carries as strong a bias as working for a DOE
contractor, and stop the fiction that the anti-nuke groups are
"independent" and only DOE contractors are "biased."
This is a very important point. From the public's perspective, they ask
themselves, "Why would this group be putting all this effort into opposing
this if it weren't really bad? What's in it for them?" And, that's one of
the questions, we should try to answer. Indeed, what is in it for them?
Publicity, Hollywood dollars? What motivates the leaders of these
crusades? I think we need to understand this aspect.
