...so even a 5.0 or a 6.0 could do the trick.

And then there's always the drunk or drugged plant workers and/or just garden variety operator incompetence.

And of course, the greed and the desire to keep costs down and profits up.

And then there's the arrogance. The basic lack of concern or giving a good goddamn for anyone in the future since the good folks who designed and run these plants will all be dead -- while their children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren mutate and grow extra feet and fewer fingers from the radioactive waste they've left them to deal with.

And if even all that fails, we can always count on the NRC to screw things up and then lie about it. Like they always do.

It's over.

Shut the damn things down.

- It's time for a new paradigm. The world does not belong to these people to do with as they please........
