Wraithe, at least you care about something, unlike most aussies, who appear to me as eternal hedonists by night and thatcherites/nazi's by day. I admire it when people give a damn about their world and go to great lengths to educate themselves on subjects other than ones with a selfish dollar motive at the end.
You will not get any arguement from me that nuke waste isnt extremely dangerous and toxic. But its funny I dont see any debate about the dangers of benzine from unleaded fuel pumped out of our cars - oh no we wouldnt dare critisize our beloved cars/4WD! or the cocktail of even deadlier poisons spewed out by diesel engines - heaven forbid!
Again I see nuke power stations are labelled too expensive versus conventional.
I will tell you a little story - we had in this state an incredibly lucrative state run/owned electricity power generator - most lucrative business in SA in fact.
And one of the reasons we were told we had to sell/privatise it (by the then Olsen lib/tory gov - ironically originally created and commisioned by the lionised and visionary? Playford lib gov in the 50's) was because the conventional power station (torrens island) was nearly 50 years old and was in dire need of replacing, and we couldnt afford to replace it as it would send the state bankrupt even, and it was HUGE liability! and the only solution was to sell it to a multinational, as they are the only entities in the world who can afford to build/rebuild conventional power stations, governments/countries cant afford to do it anymore apparently?
