DOes anyone have any connections to get someone
to talk as part of conference on the issues of
all the license extensions on the nuclear power plants.
From my reading, even the original design
engineers are saying we never anticipated these
plants operating longer than 40 years. The whole
safety issue of radiation damage to steel (& how
much of the cooling tubes & other steelworks are
leaking and embrittled already from 40 years of
radiation hardening) is a well known issue in
nuclear engineering circles that is completely
kept out of the public limelight & such discussions as Indian Point.

Ring the bells that still can ring, Forget your perfect offering.
There is a crack, a crack in everything, That's how the light gets in.
