Re: Nuclear Laundry; Mindset of Anti's

[dckosloff@aep.com]

Based on my own personal experience in a recent civil suit, I believe it is
difficult to fully appreciate the "wonderland" quality of a trial until you are
in your own trial.  This is the lawyers' wonderland.  Most judges are lawyers.
They create the wonderland and control it for their monetary and physic
benefits.  The other participants are only there to justify the lawyers'
activities.  This has become even worse now that two branches of the federal
government have endorsed and encouraged perjury.  In my case the defendants's
lawyer lied to eliminate the existence of a road and the defendant lied to
create a completely different scenerio than had actually occured.  There was no
possibility that what he said was merely another perspective on what had
happened.  I had expected a different perspective, but was stunned by what he
said.  Objective truth in the general culture has ceased to exist.  Truth is
what you create with whatever skills are available to you; your own or what you
can borrow or rent.

My own opinion and no one elses.

It has been my experience (admittedly limited) that the "antis" do not want to
be "educated".  I'm sure that there are exceptions, but it seems to me that they
"know" the "truth" and consider any opinions opposing theirs as attempts to
justify an agenda that will surely make somebody rich at the expense of the
general population.

Also, although very unfortunate, court room environments constitute a different
world where facts are a very small part of the proceedings and usually have
little to do with the outcome of a civil case argued before a jury.  It is, of
course, quite important that the jury be educated as to the facts in a manor
that has real meaning to them, but, unfortunately, emotion usually rules.
Perception becomes everything.

Just my own opinion.
