| You've asked a lot of things here. Let me try to address them: 1. Do you have some reason to believe there is a meltdown risk? No. I've read and heard from qualified people who do. I can't speak for them beyond saying they exist. I was trying to summarize their positions, but I probably missed some things. 2. Have you spent as much time worrying about the oil refineries within miles of fault lines all throughout the state? Diablo canyon popped up on my radar due to a podcast (TUC radio) which had a 2-part series: http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/program/77429 and http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/program/77528. I found the case for the shutdown of this specific site quite persuasive - you may be more skeptical... 3. What about oil train explosions? No. Again, this is a specific case. The focus is on the safety of this one thing. You can look at my comment history, I don't believe I'm an alarmist. The concerns of the suitability of the plant seemed valid outside of any anti-nuclear concern. |
