“End Nuclear Insanity Before Nuclear Insanity Ends Humanity” ~llaw
Jul 13, 2025
On My Mind Today:
I am just a thoughtful slightly upset, confused, somewhat inhibited, mind-wandering journalist today, trying my best to style the future format here in the best way possible without getting overly technical with ‘all the things nuclear’ I have over some 50 years stuffed in my mind following a career in the nuclear mining and power industry spread over all or parts of three decades, but the important core being the entire 1970s when the nuclear power gained its first ability to sell uranium to commercial reactors at their own negotiated prices, though still with some governmental control over the price of “yellowcake” (U308) on a per-pound basis.
I left the industry in the 2nd quarter of 1980 due to the appalling leadership’s attitude toward concerned protestors and other citizens following the 3 Mile Island partial meltdown of one of their reactors, in the spring of the previous year, which prompted one of our industry corporate presidents to present the nuclear industry in a speech with the new logo-like principle of “Let the Bastards Freeze to Death in the Dark.”, a message that should have turned other corporate executives against the industry simply on its own thoughtlessness and cruelty, but what it did do was to help turn the common world against new nuclear facility enterprises.
Until now, that is! Today we are looking directedly into the face of our fear of an “armageddon-like” WWIII filled with nuclear weapons of mass destruction. Yet we are endorsing, once again — this time on a promise of a huge born-again industry scale filled with new nuclear plants together with the endorsement of questionable industry propaganda, engineering and mining corporations, political endorsements, and other enterprises all preying on the ignorant and innocent public in several unreasonable and dangerous ways, including the myth of nuclear energy solving the threat of global warming and our much needed eventual environmental climate change. Such promises to the world population will never happen for several reasons including time.
So instead of providing clean, safe, and reliable electricity around the world, the insane return to nuclear power adds just one more deadly — meaning the worst of all — environmental poison burden on all oxygen-breathing life on planet Earth . . . ~llaw
This nuclear power facility, owned and operated by California’s PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric Company), located in Diablo Canyon near San Luis Obispo at Avila Beach, California, is the last commercial nuclear power provider in California.
