Radioactivity muddles the alphabet of DNA

9. NOT at ALL!!!

NO - I did NOT say that.

You can have your own opinion of nuclear power that is different than mine.

Go back and read what I said. I didn't say that people were idiots for opposing nuclear power.

That's NOT the determining factor.

It's explained quite clearly in the above post. The determining factor is how well-reasoned someone's opinion is.

If you have a different opinion; that is based on good solid facts and your own experience; you are most certainly welcome to your opinion.

I can very well understand how living through the consequences of the Chernobyl accident could affect how one views nuclear power, and how one "weights" the various factors in arriving at an overall conclusion.

What I object to are people who don't do their own homework, they go to some "advocacy" website, one with an "axe to grind", and they just accept everything posted on the website as if it were handed down from the Almighty on stone tablets.

Armed with such "facts"; they then go forth as good little automatons and spread the propaganda of the website.

If that doesn't sound like what you are doing; and I don't believe it does; then I do NOT count you in the group of gullible idiots.

I think you are reading more into what I wrote than what I intended.

Actually, I DO know a lot about nuclear accidents. However, I have the advantage of being a trained scientist and I'm not affected by the "fear mongers" that exaggerate the accident.
