RE: Davis Besse comments -R. Hoffman rant
But friends, if you
wanted to go to a good, authoritative source, cyber or paper, to give people the
proper view of things and respond to the Hoffmans, where would you
suggest?
No one I know writes
the antidote for these things. We're always writing for school children or
politicians or English-major reporters. No one writes a proper response to
the Hoffmans. Everyone I've talked to in the nuclear community has some
reason why we should not write such things.
I don't know any
other field in which this death-wish situation exists. It reminds me of
the Gilbert & Sullivan lyrics (Mikado? Iolanthe?) about the guy "who praises
every century but this and every country but his own."
When you draft
something, you're told "The public will never buy it." So we leave them to
the Hoffmans.
