13. I'll play if you like, from the "Some kind of Luddite" perspective.

Even as a radical environmentalist and left wing lunatic, I still find myself unable to understand anti-nuclear activism anymore, even though I used to be some kind of anti-nuclear activist myself, including naked people. Including naked me. And dumpster diving. I know the keywords that will bring up the full frontal pictures of me wearing only a hat I bought in Mexico and a smile. I will not lie, I was hot. And a mess too.

It probably has something to do with my misanthropy. Humans do more damage to the natural environment than nuclear waste. Chernobyl and Fukushima are like instant human exclusion zones. But for an unfortunate few radiation sensitive species, nature rebounds when humans are excluded from an environment by nuclear accidents.

I'm not going to go ConspiracyTheory on NNadir's linked site. The science and technology look legit. A crazy guy like me, who has been, and is currently the sole proprietor of various websites since the later 'nineties (some crazy artist shit more than others) isn't going to question a web site's origin, only its content.

ANYONE can create a website and it seems a very likely thing for young aspiring nuclear engineers to do.

I started college as an engineering major after quitting high school, but I switched to biology because 88% or more of the students in engineering classes were guys and they were boring. No, i do not want to talk about cars and babes.
