If you meant to start a fight, you have succeeded.

First, nuke plants in quantity enough to power the world would take more money than we ever had and about 50 years to build and then we'd be replacing the ones built 50 years ago. And then we'd have all that waste.

Instead we can have solar and wind supplying all our electricity in 5 years and replaced after 30 with no dangerous waste!

You claim you have the inside scoop on what is happening to the Pacific sea life dieing off in an unprecedented manner. Please do let us in on that secret, because the marine scientists are "Baffled".

Science is nothing more than seeing changes and describing those changes and making theories about what is behind the changes. So, fire up your science literacy, and tell the world what's going on with the sea stars and sea lions and sardines. We await your wisdom!
