Eski, You're so funny.The very first myth of this article I addressed on post 2971.That post concerned Nuclear Power Plants and the power grid.Guess who that post was to,and guess who didn't respond. To: Eski (2970 ) From: J.L. Turner Monday, Dec 21 1998 10:00AM ET Reply # of 3005 My concerns from this positive article: 1Manager Van dell states in report they can make scheduling changes in case 2or3 plants go down to y2k,therefore this is official confirmation that a manager of a nuclear power plant believes y2k can shut down nuclear power plants. 2 The first NRC inspection of a plant occured Sept. 98 and they were still checking assessment! 3 Radiation could be accidently released and the NRC wanted to know the air flow of such radiation. 4: 70% of the software remains to be checked. 5: What about the plants that are not pre chip usage? 6:At least 12 critical systems are not compliant by the plant managers own words yet the NRC compliments them for moving along according to schedule??? startribune.com Those are reasonable questions on facts presented in the minneapolis paper?Of course you wouldn't answer or respond then so I wouldn't expect you to now.It's much easier to label with a name "hype" anyone that doesn't accept your pollyanna extremism than it is to make a factual argument.By the way do you know anything about residual failure?
