1. Of course those arguments are pointless. THey are made by those with a vested
interest in either oil, coal or nuclear energy, and based on faulty "studies" or on just plain lies.

2. Thom Hartmann was being unprogressive?
Or was he debating someone who had those views?

6. That might be because he knows it is not going to fly
Everyone loves nuclear until the residents surrounding a possible new nuclear facility find out what is going to happen to their property values and they find out they are going to need to sign a release for the school to give their little kiddies Potassium iodide in the event of an accident.

Then they don't like the idea so much any more. We went through this 30 years ago. Thom must have a good memory.

he becomes THE smartest person in that room. IMO.

14. Also, my family had to sign a waiver when they bought property near
our nuke plant that they would not sue in case of an accident. Otherwise the sale could not go through.

4. Why do you title a thread
"Thom Hartmann is Talking about Nuclear Power" and then not provide a link for us to follow?

7. Usually a link to listen online is available that some may not
have or know about. It would make it much easier to consider your thread and contemplate a response if a link is provided rather than having your thread readers scrambling to locate it themselves.

Perhaps you were listening on broadcast airwaves. In that case, I digress.

11. On another note...
Edited on Tue Aug-19-08 03:16 PM by Texas Explorer
I was made aware of The Reflecting Pool from your sig a couple weeks ago and have since obtained and watched it. Pretty good and connects all the dots thus far. NIST is releasing it's findings of the WTC7 demolition on Thursday, in case you were'nt aware of it.

16. Remember that big thread we had yesterday that the pro-nukies were
saying that nukes are the "only" way to get the electricity we need? Well, he debunked it all. I loves me some Thom. He listed the countries who are successfully using alternative energies making it unnecessary for any new nuke plants to be built.
