... since he's the one who claims that his career never got anywhere because nobody else in the field agrees with him. But the school likes to support a diversity of opinion... which is nice.

Or... you could just note that this Fukushima thingy has been in the news a bit over the last four years and no other nuclear "professors" (let alone actual professors) have backed him up.

Whether or not they actually laughed at a 40+ year nuclear professor that still can't tell the difference between fissionable and fissile and that cesium is more dangerous than... oh... say plutonium? Well... that's really just a measure of their generosity toward an older colleague. We can only guess.

Japan now censors Fukushima news, it's so good. Octafish May 2015 #5

Not surprised at all. darkangel218 May 2015 #6

I guess tptb think no news will be viewed as good news. Mnemosyne May 2015 #27

You seriously believe that there's still a nuclear reaction going on? FBaggins May 2015 #7

Yes. Octafish May 2015 #8

So the only two possibilities in your mind... FBaggins May 2015 #9

You're the one who claimed it's over. Octafish May 2015 #10

He claimed it wasn't even hot! RobertEarl May 2015 #11

TEPCO and GE want to put the kibosh on the timeline. Octafish May 2015 #12

Who should we believe, real investigative reporters and experts who warned about the danger, or Big sabrina 1 May 2015 #49

Real investigative reporters like Alex Jones, right? FBaggins May 2015 #50

You know a whole lot more about what Alex Jones has to say than I do. Greg Palast sabrina 1 May 2015 #51

You may claim not to read Jones... FBaggins May 2015 #52

So why do you feel a need to smear? Octafish May 2015 #55

Could you clarify that for me? FBaggins May 2015 #56

Not my problem. You made the smear. Octafish May 2015 #64

Sorry... why is it a smear again? FBaggins May 2015 #65

What's it called when you put words in somebody else's mouth? Octafish May 2015 #67

That would be "taking a page from the Octafish playbook" FBaggins May 2015 #70

Palast has been a respected voice on DU forever Generic Other May 2015 #68

The alternative explanation is that DU didn't change... FBaggins May 2015 #69

There's a pattern to the nonsense. Octafish May 2015 #71

Wow... that's quite an imagination FBaggins May 2015 #74

lol Ichingcarpenter May 2015 #15

You really don't "get" the burden of proof fallacy... do you? FBaggins May 2015 #46

You had a lucid moment? RobertEarl May 2015 #53

I guess that was a "nope" FBaggins May 2015 #54

Meanwhile in the US RobertEarl May 2015 #87

you aren't going to respond to post #54? snooper2 May 2015 #76

I guess that too was a "nope" FBaggins May 2015 #88

Nope... I merely claimed that active fission ended years ago FBaggins May 2015 #14

They're your own words. Octafish May 2015 #32

All of those words are correct FBaggins May 2015 #34

Asinine argument. Octafish May 2015 #57

Did you think that people would miss that you're dodging? FBaggins May 2015 #58
