Against the entrenched, highly funded and powerful nuke industry, ENEnews is like David against Goliath.

Too bad it took such a calamity as Fukushima to wake up everyone.

Heck, even here on DU, nuke support has gone from 80% to 10%.

David vs Goliath. It is an impressive battle of the little guy against a real monster.

ENEnews, rocks! Thanks for kicking this thread so much. I hadn't planned on it being so widely read.
