Re: The Nation article on nuke plant security

John,

I agree that this forum is unlikely to be frightened by the misinformation or 

lies that are being spread not just by Norm but as we see every day, the 

media and organizations with an anti-nuke agenda. I also agree that it is 

sometimes humorous.

However, People uneducated regarding these topics are frightened.  They read 

about kitchen table nukes,  anti radiation pills, dirty bombs.  millions of 

deaths, years of nuclear induced uninhabitable cities on and on and on.  What 

are they to think?  Norm. does it give you joy to know you have the power to 

make the average guy loose sleep, afraid to use public transportation, or go 

to a ballgame?  I think it is just another form of terrorism for people who 

know better to spread these lies, especially now.  It serves no good purpose. 

 Besides those who are crying now about the use of nuclear power would likely 

be the first to complain about the impact on their lifestyles if in fact the 

nukes were closed down.  I;m just tired of seeing scared people everywhere, 

when the thing they are frightened by are lies told by folks who act so 

concerned for them, but obviously don't give a damn about their wellbeing.  

GIVE ME A BREAK!  The Coalition for Peace and Justice. Rename your little 

organisation Norm.  Something like the Coalition for Terror and Lies would be 

so much closer to the truth.
