Nuclear meltdown! Holy Godzilla NOOOO!!!

So, according to your cite, they get 4,582 MW from coal plants from other states, they are only interested in getting rid of 439 MW coming from coal plants in the state. How many solar power plants would they need, generating how much power, and at what cost do you suppose? Say they built a bunch of solar thermal plants like are being built in Spain today, what would they cost, how much area would they take up, how many people would they provide power to, and what would the cost be?

Not that I’m seeing the point of continuing to get over 4000 MW from coal plants in other states while piously getting rid of a few hundred MW of coal burning plants in their own state (assuming they manage to do it without, in the end, simply buying more out of state power).

You’re fucking priceless.

YOU made an inaccurate observation about coal in California, got called on it, and then complained that the person who pointed out your error was off-topic.

No, it’s true. This topic is not about coal, coal power plants, or how much you love nuclear power.

I think the topic might be how stupid and delusional you are.

Well, you and TSS.

Because Nuclear meltdown! Holy Godzilla is too subtle for you?

Thanks to real scientists releasing real science information, we actually do know a bit about what has happened so far in Japan.

I’m watching protest in Japan about how TEPCO and the Japanese Government have lost the trust of the ordinary people. They are figuring out that they are being fed lies, by idiots who have no plan at all.

The fuck parade of clowns and fools continues.

Bu it’s so bad that even CNN is starting to express some doubts about what TEPCO is telling them.

Well I gave not seen him (Her???) or Mothra or Gamera come out from the ocean so I’m still disappointed, I see just trolls that just project their trollery and ignorance into others that are actually checking the evidence.

The lack of evidence, data, information and measurements is actually a main part of this complete fuckbag of a disaster.

Nah, we can resolve who is not doing right by you answering a simple question:

Do you admit now that the report of dangerous levels of Iodine 131 in rain water was alarmist claptrap? The source you used clearly misled many people by not reporting several items that were present in the actual Berkeley report.

The only thing worse than this fuckbag of a disaster, are the fuckbags who still want to say it isn’t really a disaster.

In other words, “I’m such a coward for not owning to my mistakes here and elsewhere”.

It’s obvious that the real issue, for the true nuclear denier, is that this might be DANGEROUS to other reactors. Four huge explosions, leaking radiation, a quarter of a million people displaced, the economy of a nation being trashed, no power generation from 10 reactors at two power plants, fear and uncertainty, none of that is the real problem.

It’s what this MIGHT DO to other power plants. There’s the real danger.

You just toss out whatever bullshit you can, don’t you? The quarter of a million displaced? The majority of those were from the earthquake and tsunami, not from the evacuations because of concerns over radiation in the 20 km zone. The economy is being trashed in Japan not from this ‘nuclear disaster’, but from the ACTUAL disaster that hit them…the earthquake and tsunami. The 60-70 bodies that they found today, that you didn’t mention? None of them died from radiation…they died from THE FUCKING DISASTER THAT STRUCK JAPAN YOU FUCKING MORON! Those are the REAL problems. The nuclear aspect of all this is just a side show, comparatively speaking. But you can’t grasp that because, well, you are an idiot who likes to go all chicken-little, and you can’t comprehend that there is a bigger picture to all of this.

Why it is so hard for you to grasp that people can and will build 100k plus 15MW turbines for offshore (and some onshore) use over the next century? Even at up to 10 million a pop? It is starting to happen and will continue to happen. What won’t happen is anymore nuclear plants in the US. Not a one. Why you can’t grasp that is obvious. You are extreme.

It’s not like solar, which never impacts the environment or populace. :rolleyes:

That’s what makes us so different, I’ll admit when I’m wrong.

And it isn’t a coal thread, it’s a trash nuclear thread.

If you like that, just wait 'til you see what China is going to do with its nuclear waste.

Yes, but that doesn’t kill anyone in the US, so it doesn’t matter. Only full fledged deaths matter, and then only if they occur in the US as a direct result of solar power generation. Should you actually find someone who was killed by a panel falling on them, I’ll weasel around and say that it could have been any object falling on them.

Solar denier!
