3. Why is GE-MSNBC treating us to this only now?

It got about ten days daily coverage, and then dropped off the scope after the multiple meltdowns and radiation leaks worsened.

4. And yet people advocate building more of them

Propaganda is stronger than family ties it seems. Getting the permission to build nuclear power plants was the work of propaganda. They told us it was perfectly safe, that they had it all figured out but those of us around here didn't buy that bullshit and put a stop to PSO's plans to site a nuke plant, blackfox, about 15 miles upwind from me here, My whole extended family lives in this area, for them I fought this and we won. You know what, yes, it makes me proud knowing that in numbers we are stronger than the mightiest of corporations. First it was being sent off to fight a people who had done nothing to me or my family or your family for that matter, then I get home to this siting of a nuke plant in my frontyard. It was too much for this person. Somethings just bring out the fight in you even if you don't fully understand at first what it is. I guess its something we're born with. Man having survived for thousands of years and that cumulative knowledge is what protects us.
