Do people realize we haven't built a nuclear plant since 1966? I don't know about you, but I'm thinkin' we've moved ahead technologically (though not musically) since The Temptations released, "Ain't Too Proud To Beg". Boy, I sure miss the "Motown Sound".

Anyway, we domesticated fire about 200,000 years ago, and even considering the millions who have been killed and maimed from that raging beast it's still worth the price. Wouldn't you say?. But, maybe we should give up fire too - march back to the caves and eat each other - raw.

Man, even Druids had fire.

have anything to do with the crap "chicken little" coverage from the media.

Electricity is the life's blood of this country so we have a choice, coal, oil, or nukes. Wind and solar are not ready for prime time and I am reminded of that every time I drive through the huge wind farm outside of Palm Springs.
