    Just to be clear - do you mean a source of radiation that ends when a coal plant shuts down, or a source of radiation that people will be dealing with a thousand years from now?

    I mean the second kind, the kind that lasts a thousand years, like this one.

    And, just to be clear, why do nuclear fanboys point fingers at coal in lame attempts at misdirection?

    Because it's the other mature, available, well-understood widely deployed energy source, obviously. Because it's the alternative.

    Anyway, yeah Fukushima was a crazy disaster. It's going to be enormously expensive to fix. To me, though, that still doesn't add up to the enormous expense of the alternative to nuclear, which is coal.

    Fukushima, again, represents the failure of management -- not engineering. When a company request something be engineered for a specific purpose they generally get what they ask for and then some. Fukushima is EXACTLY what happens when technology is forced to produce far beyond and outside the scope it was designed.

    The fact that anyone would compare pollution from coal to any form of modern nuclear plant just shows your ignorance. Nuclear fanboys point to coal because it is a shit solution that continues to cause cancer and birth defects throughout the entire world. A group of small thorium reactors could power the needs of America both cleaner and cheaper than any of the current solutions, especially the bullshit solar and wind farms. What's really holding them back isn't whackos, it's the city-based energy monopolies that want us to keep dying from coal pollution in order to finance their 800% profit margins.

    Not really. Income inequality leads to wealth disparity and wealth disparity leads to political inequity. The politicians naturally cater to the people who fund their re-elections. When the top 20% control 92% of the wealth in the country, the politicians will do whatever the top 20% wants as long as it probably won't hurt their re-election chances.

    Because obviously someone smoking weed and shitting on themselves in a park in NYC is far more qualified to make these decisions. Yeah.

    “Fully $100 million of the record-breaking $150 million that the Obama campaign collected in September alone came over the internet via credit card donations,” writes Bill Dyer at Hugh Hewitt’s blog. “The Obama campaign has deliberately turned off the anti-fraud mechanisms available for internet credit card transactions. They have no clue how many millions or tens of millions of dollars have been donated to them in violation of federal election law. And now it turns out that the Obama campaign cheerfully takes even contributions from untraceable pre-paid credit cards, a/k/a ‘the pseudo-credit cards you use when you want to conceal illegal activity.’ ”

    "The whole “back-end screening” farce is insulting to anyone with a second-grade education. The Obama campaign cannot possibly have any objective measurement to even roughly estimate how many mistakes and how many episodes of deliberate fraud they’re catching versus how many they’re simply missing, even if one is naive enough to presume their good-faith best efforts."

    "Moreover, everything the Obama campaign has yet said about this entire issue utterly ignores the key questions: (1) Who ordered the anti-fraud protections turned off? And (2) why hasn’t Barack Obama already fired every such person, and exposed them for criminal prosecution as aiders and abettors of national and international campaign contribution fraud?"

    Mark Steyn, writing at the Corner:

    "So two-thirds of Obama’s record haul derives from a website that intentionally disabled all the default security checks that prevent basic fraud like fake addresses and no-name matches .Here’s the bottom line: Two-thirds of the record-breaking haul Obama raised for the final stretch of the campaign comes from a racket set up to facilitate fake names, phony addresses and untraceable cards."

    Recently, I paid $465 for a new iPhone 4S at an AT&T store. They instructed me (in writing) as to the process to follow once I received my new phone in snail mail to deactivate the old iPhone 3G and active the new 4S. The next day my 3G service was turned off. Subsequent calls over the next three days finally discerned that once your account is converted to 4S support changing that back will screw the account beyond (apparently) any supervisor's ability to fix the service. Essentially, I was rendered without phone until I received the 4S in two to three WEEKS.
