Gertz & Wash Times on targeting NPP's



Hope others will object to articles like this ....



Follows text of letter to Editor, Wash. Times.

Subject:   Nuclear Plants [supposed] Target

Dear Editor,

Aside from content of the article, the headline claiming that nuclear

plants are terrorist targets is silly and falls way short of Bill Gertz'



and the Times' statures. You both know full well that potential targets

include just about every US location from major bridges, sports

stadiums,  to major water systems. You have assisted the government

promotion of irrational fears of anything nuclear. Plenty of experts in

government know as a result of many tests and analyses, that nuclear

power plants are far less vulnerable than a large number of other

potential target categories. Please cease promoting irrational public

fears and unreasoning worries..

Sincerely,

Maury Siskel
