5. Where do you get the information and why not provide a proper reference?

2 problems with your reply.
First, your history of distorting information as it passes from the source through your keyboard to the forum is legend, Baggins.
Second, is the history of accuracy of the professional watchdogs vs the nuclear industry itself.

Time and again we've seen nuclear industry claims crumble as time vindicates the critics. Take for example, the present cost of a reactor - who was correct and who was shown to be wrong? You can't blame that on those pesky environmentalists, either; the nuclear industry got everything they asked for and then a lot more so their projections were shown to be bald faced lies.

It is endless with the nuclear village - anything that is negative about the nuclear industry is claimed to be a fabrication, distortion or result of actions by someone who hates nuclear. The truth is the freaking technology is a loser and it empowers the ethically bankrupt.
