Really? Should we also wonder if you are on the payroll of a coal or oil company, because you produce a one-sided condemnation of nuclear power? You might want to take a look at a short science fiction story from 1954, "On the Feasibility of Coal Driven Power Stations", written by O.R. Frisch. That might put some things into perspective. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
