| 803285 | 2009-08-21 10:24:00 | I mean what could possibly go wrong???????? “both man and nature are completely safe. The huge reactor is housed in a concrete silo, and it has environmental protection systems. Even if the incredible should happen, the automatic control and safety systems would shut down the reactor in a matter of seconds. The plant has emergency core cooling systems and many other technological safety designs and systems.” www.environmentalgraffiti.com |

I rest my case. |

But not in your backyard I think. How many hydro dams do you know that have been breached? The only ones I can think off the top of my head were those hit with a bouncing ball bomb in germany. |

Try this for just one more and there other examples:- www.nytimes.com But what is wrong with generating the power where it is needed like in Auckland rather than transmitting the said power from where I live to where you live. |
