    Music and Movie industries are up there at the top.
    Music industry is completely vampiric , with NO known benefits for anyone except themselves. If they died today, the music you hear would only get better, in spite of the scare stories to the contrary.
    Movie industry is continuously the same old shit, recycled from B&W all the way back to the silent era. You could say the special effects are better, but that would be the special effects industry, who also work for television. Nope, nothing new or interesting here, at best they will soak a storyline off some author and hope no one notices it to be a recycled premise from earlier authors. Hard to believe they want the price of a ticket or a rental for that crap.

    As one of the top 4% of minds in the world, I have smoked an average of two oz. of cannabis a month for the last 38 years. Ive blow it all off over time,designed everything from military weapons to consumer electronics, interviewed more celebrities than youll ever meet in a lifetime,received two bullshit doctorates from Ivy league Universities and have the gall to offer my top of the line archtop guitar for a cool $35k U.S. This is only from my hobbies.

    Having lived in Mass a bit too long, I would say it was the general opinion of the sheeple that they didnt want to mess up the views from the castles of their overlords. No one would do enough there if they could. Depends on which way the wind blows, figuratively. Salem still sucks.

    Do you meant the footprint of acreage, that doesnt damn matter out in the ocean, or the print of the general nuisance it creates from waste? I can not imagine generating the expensive ,dangerous,overhead from waste would be a viable alternative to free and renewable with literally no danger compared to nuclear. If you believe so, I know a load of tire shops that would pay you to tote off their old flats. Really, you can make money by doing that, but you have to figure out what to do with the tires, but I see that sort of thing doesnt concern you. You GO girlfriend!

    What is that you say 3 mile island generated how much waste? Previous and since the meltdown? How much will it cost to store it for the several lifetimes it will have to be kept from the environment? At whose cost? Dont be a dumbass Beavis!

    Perhaps when you can eliminate graft, felonious building contractors,bribe-able politicians and inspectors, keep the help off crack,launch waste into the sun and follow directions, then nuclear power will be viable energy source in more than THEORY. In practice it is one fuck of a FAIL.

    Really, you need to take in far more rigorous details than the financial reports before sounding off like a Billy Bob at a Gun show.

    Because it is useful to stir up a bunch of chicken-littles to run around panicking about the sky falling. Then D.C. is obliged to begin another round of legislation , probes and programs that wont work, but will create a nice diversion to cover other activities.
    The useful parts of the report are probably classified so they dont fall to terrorist hands, like anyone who would vote them out of office.

    It always makes me wonder how the new discovery must taste ,steak on grill. Lizard is generally one of the tastes like chicken critters, but by the time you get up to gator its got a pleasant uniqueness. Gimme a Steakosaurus Rex! If they ever recoup some $ from genetic research/farting around , it would be to resurrect some delicious species to mass consumables level.
    The oddest meats can just be excellent. I could go on to the shock and horror of many, but we will keep this on topic.
    Alligator is good, therefore larger Dinos may be outrageously delicious.
