WashPost infographic on recent thefts of nuclear materials

[NNadir]

22. Your vast ignorance of nuclear technology is obviated here.

Nuclear power saves lives, and nuclear medicine saves lives as well.

Apparently, your radiation paranoia extends to medical uses as well.

By contrast, ignorance kills people, and there are no critics of nuclear technology on this website who are anything but ignorant. There is not one who understands for instance that Cobalt-60 and Iodine-125 (the latter of which I have worked with extensively) are both prepared in accelerators, have nothing to do with nuclear power, and are prepared exclusively for the purpose of saving human lives.

According to dumb guys whining over the more than half a century of nuclear power operations, including the gas and oil flake Amory Lovins, the theft of nuclear materials was supposed to end in all kinds of nuclear wars.

Being a dumb anti-nuke now working for dangerous fossil fuel companies and collecting oodles of money from them, he reported in 1980, in the above linked festival of fear and ignorance that nuclear power was dying and it was a good thing, because if it wasn't dead, the result would be nuclear war.

Since 1980, nuclear power production on this planet increased 400%, and the number of nuclear wars observed is zero. The number of oil wars fought on behalf of the companies that Amory Lovins greenwashs is not zero.

Since 1980, 0.7 trillion metric tons of dangerous fossil fuel waste have been dumped into the planetary atmosphere by people and companies like the one Amory Lovins, idiot anti-nuke, works for.

The concentration of dangerous fossil fuel waste in the planetary atmosphere - destroyed in large part by the mindless paranoid excesses of the Lovins crowd - has risen more than 50 ppm.

Close to 100 million people died from air pollution in this period.

And what do we have here?

A cut and paste piece of garbage trying to kill people with fear and ignorance by appealing to cases that have killed no one.

For this grand tragedy can any of the anti-nuke paranoids identify as many deaths as will take place in the next hour from air pollution? The next ten minutes? The next sixty seconds? One death?

Humanity deserves what it's going to get because there are a subset of very, very, very, very, very ignorant people who for reasons that remain mysterious, have been taken seriously although there is no rational reason to do so.
