> but have you spent as much time worrying about the oil refineries within miles of fault lines all throughout the state I share GPs concerns about Diablo Canyon and, yes, I've spent lots of time concerned about oil refineries in the state (both seismic and other issues) having spent several years living near several of them, and having a family member who worked in several of them. And about oil train safety, for some of the same reasons. Actually, I've observed that there is a considerable overlap in California between people who are concerned with nuclear safety and those concerned with oil industry safety, and considerable overlap between the people unconcerned each of those, even though those unconcerned with nuclear safety will wave around things like oil (or coal or gas) industry safety when nuclear safety is raised (but generally not in any other context.) And, in the particular case of PG&E, part of the reason for concern about them is they don't exactly have a spotless record of nonfeasance and malfeasance regarding gas infrastructure safety, too. |
