dear dear zen, you amaze me. >>>>> Microsft can't make Windows run forever without a blue screen of death, just how in the world do you think a monalithic, relatively untested, extremely complicated structure known as a nuclear power plant possibly run without problem Chernobyl, Mile Island... we've seen reality already. The above is your statement. First what you don't understand is that msft only employs 2nd and third string programmers and the hundreds of thousands of lines of spagetti code that msft call OSes and I call viri are most likely 10,000 to a million times more complicated than a nuclear reactor. The public has no access to the code and no outside independent code review occurs with the crap software put out by msft. Second, if you think there in any similarity between the Chernobyl bomb design waiting to explode and the Three Mile Island reactor that was operated by dummies and shut down and caused no environmental damage, well you are a computer programmer with maybe one one thousandth of my knowledge of hardware and systems design. A nuclear reactor is actually a simple system and creating several redundant backups creates a totally safe design and the hundreds of reactors that have operated for years with no disaster are a demonstration of that assertion. Now the total volume of high level nuclear waste from all reactors in America, produced to date, would be 15 feet high and fill a one football field. Now nuclear wastes are a problem only because idiot technical retard who profess to have some knowledge of science and technology go around crying the the sky is falling in. But we know they are just techno retards with out the ability to think. Now zen as to your realities. sierraclub.org Did you even read it?????? I don't see any facts. I see no numbers. I see no arithmetic. I see no analysis of the 200 pages of data and charts in the President's Plan. Was any of the BULLSHIT that you call facts from that factsheet1.asp written by anyone with any technical background. Did you bother to check???????? Zen I call this an example of a fact sheet on energy. watman.com I call the link you posted zenned facts or maybe something from the technical mind of hillary. Zen, look at this watman.com NOTE: digital signature at the bottom. An 87 vector symbol Now. this system is far more complex than a nuclear reactor. I present this to give you some perspective. And when it's working we all have a bottle to hold a coke. Tom watson tosimwee
