Why is that interpreted as a plant problem? The coal and gas fired units shut down when they aren't needed too.gmax137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10911751.post-62934592190739772452012-11-07T14:30:55.268-05:002012-11-07T14:30:55.268-05:00They've never responded to my Letters to the E...They've never responded to my Letters to the Editor either. I beseech NEI to mail Time copies of this article and the fine prior one, "The Hurricane This Time". They seriously need rebutting; they influence too many people to go totally unchallenged, especially by main supporters of nuclear energy.<br /><br />James Greenidge<br />Queensjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624023124404414596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10911751.post-24164975586037868902012-11-07T14:22:27.479-05:002012-11-07T14:22:27.479-05:00I really don't see how plants shutting down du...I really don't see how plants shutting down due to a big storm is an indictment of nuclear safety. The plants responded exactly as they were designed to do, and therefore are unsafe? Does not compute.

I remember an article in the early 80s about nuclear power and the author kept going on suggestively about his "ominous yellow cloud" that a nearby resident say mysteriously emerging from the plant on some occasions.<br /><br />No actual investigation into what it might be. No acknowledgement that the only thing coming out of a nuclear plant is steam. Just this suggestion that something horrible and yellow must be coming out of the plant.<br /><br />That's Time Magazine. I am sad to read that they have not changed one iota in 30 years.traghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13567888742411686266noreply@blogger.com
