lol @ racer naively believing that all power needed to our planet could be provided without use of nuclear power plants.
Even tho he is a nutcase, it's possible they will find something new in the future
Yup - a move to nuclear fusion rather than fission. Like it or not, we need nuclear power.
I believe that in the future we won't even use electricity for many of the things we use it for now.

I'm not looking forward to the nutjobs trying to decry Fusion with the same arguments when it finally becomes viable.
'but it are nukular! it will b metldown an last 4 zillions of yeers!!11'
Unless solar panel technology finds a way to actually use up the sunlight efficiently solar energy is just a quirky alternate energy source.
Nuclear power isn't dangerous. Just like most of the worlds Volcanoes aren't, unless you jump in, or on them of course.

Interesting 
The new systems are considerably safer, when I can see evidence that a system works then ok, I'm not a complete nutcase. The systems I'm really concerned about are the old systems that are deathtraps and are built in totally inapropriate locations. If these fail in the way 3 Mile Island, Chernobyl, Fujikawa, Sellafield fail then the medical effects are proven.
Fujikawa is in China syndrome right now and theres a chance of a really impressive explosion.
Sorry if your in the fallout zone.
Lets take a quick look at Sellafield, this is from the Guardian. http://www.guardian.co.uk/envi ... ear-plant-cumbria-hazards
Interesting, and so's the fact that the company doing the cleanup got an act through parliment giving them complete excemption from any future claims for damages for anything.
And it's a snip at only 50 billion pounds, and I'd expect, as all govt contracts do, thats only going up from there.
Thats certainly cheap energy, yeah right. ( For everyone from round here! )
Did I mention how pissed the Irish and Norwegians are about it ?
But it's completely safe. (?)
The total nuclear power produced as a percentage of your total production is less than 20% for both the UK and the US.
Oil is far safer and if anyone has bothered following the last 20 years of research then there are some fascinating breakthroughs here.
No, it's not a final solution, there are fascinating areas to explore for potentinial power sources.
My real concern is with your nuclear deathtraps. Please get your acts together and turn them off ASAP please.

Yes, tell us all about how advanced and enlightened you are because you come from ****ing New Zealand.
>implying UK and US is the whole world
Tell us how you have a problem with everyone and anyone.
You and Racer X (and occasionally FlyMike) isn't really a very long list.
I rip on everyone running these Mk1 deathtraps, it's just that people from the US, UK tend to get more aggressive about me questioning their heaps of deadly junk.
And, yes, NZ is full of arrogant, aggressive, educated people who are now highly pissed with what's going on regarding the sensless murder of humans so some people can make 'money'.
After 150 years of fighting ( nonviolently ) for democracy here, we feel that if you want democracy you need to make a stand and do it, don't sit on your arse expecting others to do it for you.
Well regardless I'm not trying to start a conflict, but just because someone doesn't share your opinion doesn't mean you have to go ape**** on them or suggest they are being patronizing etc etc.
Hell I'm speaking from experience, nobody shares MY opinions.
No idea what bullshit you're talking about but money printing machines need electricity too, you know.
You don't have to hold an opinion only for argument's sake too.
Maybe not, but it doesn't seem like imminent trolling to me at least.
Without bothering to argue with those who believe that radiation is good for you/completely harmless etc.
The following is an essential read for anyone in the US who who is actually concerned about their health, or may know someone who's expecting a child.

Sorry but if your in Japan your probably screwed with reactor 4's collapse and the others competing to reach China syndrome first.

I'm interested in hearing informed feedback to the latest figures from the US National Cancer Institute, yes, another crazed internet source for the standard jokes.
" New information released by the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimates that 56,460 people will develop thyroid cancer in 2012 and 1,780 will die from it.
That’s up from 16,000 thyroid cancer cases in 1997 – a whopping 253% increase in fifteen years, while the US population went up only 18%.
From 1980 to 1996, thyroid cancer increased nearly 300%, while the population increased by (again) 18%.
Most thyroid cancers don’t develop for 10-30 years after radiation exposure, but the monstrous spike in thyroid cancer from 1980-2012 is only partly the result of Pennsylvania’s Three Mile Island nuclear accident in 1979 (TMI).
Pennsylvania, with its nine nuclear reactors, does have the highest incidence of thyroid cancer across nearly all demographics among 45* states, reports epidemiologist Joseph Mangano, MPH MBA, of the Radiation and Public Health Project. In 2009, he analyzed data from the Centers for Disease Control’s national survey of thyroid cancer incidence for the years 2001-2005 and compared it with proximity to nuclear power stations, finding: "

But yes, radiation is healthy and will never affect you.
But not for this lady, probably just psycosimatic as radiation isn't harmful, is it ? http://fukushima-diary.com/201 ... namisoma-blogger-ustream/
And for S14 et al here's one that you can agree with. http://enenews.com/japans-chie ... hing-matter-lawmakervideo

Racer, you deserve credit for your dedication and ability to create discussions. However, I think it would be fitting with a topic yourself where you discuss matters like this. For me ( I might have misread, english is not my strong side ) your subject is not relevant to this topic, it seems more to be about a conpiracy theory related to USA / cancer and such.
Am I wrong?
Am I wrong?
Sure Sure, Racer X...

Hmmm, for what purpose? 
Tonight, we go Aussie huntin'!

But joke aside, Racer, I respect your theories and opinions, but please try to keep them relevant to the subject of the topic, ok? ;D
