I on the other hand have better experiences with nuclear energy, which 
when 
managed safely - ie not by a government drone 'jobs' op - is quite a good 
substitute for oil power, and despite rhetorical comments is not "war on 
nature": my godfather was until his retirement a scientist at the famous 
Oak 
Ridge facility for years, and not only had six non-mutated children, but 
is 
still quite alive and well.  I believe that it is only by USING this stuff 
that it can be improved further, making more possible the science present 
fiction of "Mr Fusion".

In relation to those issues, it is interesting that several fairly high 
profile anti-nuc power advocates have changed their position due to the 
fact 
that the fears of nuc disaster havent been realized and their feeling is 
if 
an old outdated plant can take that kind of hit and not be a major 
frickdown,  then maybe it's not as dangerous as they thought. Heard two 
people with that mind change on NPR.

I myself have lost only one uncle to nuclear energy, my mom's brother was 
a 
pretty famous nuclear physisist who died of cancer from years of exposure 
in 
the old days, but with relatives in both the eastern and western Kentucky 
coal mines I am sure that body count is a lot higher, in the dozens if not 
hundreds, power always has a price, even seemingly clean hydro-electric 
power causes huge ecological impact from overbuilding of man made lakes.

Heck lets just all unplug!!!!
