10. You didn't? Why then are you citing a trivial issue as the majority of your post?

Please list, as you didn't do, how many deaths, using units of time, in units of 19,000 deaths per day in air pollution, how many deaths have occurred from nuclear weapons development in the United States. Nuclear weapons have nothing to do with commercial nuclear power, even if anti-nukes attempt to make this connection insipidly all the time.

Note that they don't connect oil refineries with war, the firebombing of Tokyo, Nagoya, Rotterdam, Hamburg, Hanoi, Bagdad... ...notwithstanding.

I did just commented on your pathetic remarks on Dine uranium miners, reported in units of time, the number of deaths from uranium miners that you burned electricity to write about, most of the electricity, if you an American, having come from dangerous fossil fuels.

Personally, I oppose nuclear weapons, and I believe all the plutonium in them should be denatured by placing it in nuclear reactors and preventing even more deadly air pollution.

What would be your solution to the accumulated weapons plutonium, keep it around indefinitely so anti-nukes can whine about what it could do while continuing to ignore what air pollution is doing?

Have a nice day, and be careful not to breath too much of that mercury, lead, and uranium that America's coal plants are still aerosolizing.
