    Two Florida politicians that have not done well were running from this issue. Did that create a classic wimp factor that undercut them on all issues?

    We can try, but not by drilling. Increasing CAFE standards, eliminating use of home heating oil and shifting aviation to biofuels will keep oil cheap. Everything we drill for is not cheap, so that only works once.

    Standard method. Seems silly not to use it.

  9. President Obama on Obama Rejects New Atlantic Ocean Oil Drilling (usatoday.com) · · Score: 1

    Has done a good thing here. It is time to keep oil prices low by shifting to more fuel efficient cars, electric cars, and eliminating home heating oil use. No need for more drilling, just keep it difficult for the Saudis to cut production.

  10. Nope, Navy reactors use more highly enriched fuel. Won't work in a civilian context, not enough security.

    Owing to all the BS, I don't link to them.

  13. Navy is competent in this area. Obviously civilian nuclear power is not.

    Sanctions are less costly than war. Easier to get sanctions if we are not reprocessing ourselves. Besides, reprocessing only make fuel more expensive.

    All that regulation indicates safety is a major issue. Chernobyl, TMI, Fukushima, and lots of close calls demonstrate this.

    You believe in final causes. Navy personal are not meant to get cancer while serving because that is the nature of a sailor? Hum. Aristotle liked those too. Not bad company, but science has largely rejected the notion.

    The source is the nuclear industry trade association. Lots of BS comes from them.

    You mean killing off the weak and vulnerable and bringing in a younger stronger population is unrelated to the bombing? Or do you you just mean we did them a favor and they ought to be happy?

    I was comparing to new nuclear power plants, though in the US, existing nuclear power plants in deregulated markets are having trouble competing with wind and natural gas pricing.

    Except hosing off a solar panel dies not lead to nuclear weapons proliferation or raise taxes to deal with that.

    Deaths from nuclear accidents don't seem to be included in those calculations while deaths from damage breaks for dams that had no hydro are, and from dams that were primary flood control and only secondary for power generation. Seems like the nuclear industry is only good for lying with statistics.
