B'ub, no back up electric generators for operating the plutonium rod lifts to prevent core meltdown in event of y2k power disruption You make me laugh. Can you not read and understand, or are you too busy constructing your offensive and attacking posts. You challenged me to do some research and respond to your questions about the nuclear plants. I did, and explained that the dampening rods were held above the core via electromagnets. In the event of a power failure, the electromagnets would not continue to hold the rods, and they drop shutting down the reactor. You do not need backup electric generators to lift the rods. LOL P.S. I also responded previously to your question about leap years, and also gave you some good advice about setting your VCR date to 1972 for which you thanked me. I don't think you know enough about any of these issues to bother carrying on an intelligent conversation with you. J'm
