The important thing is the French have run their Nuclear power
industry on military lines, if something needs fixing it's done.

The EU now want it privatised, which is worrying as Three mile island
was run that way.

Remember the theme of the movie the China Syndrome was it costs
money to do things properly, so under a privatised regime it's
tempting to cut corners.


Yes, we should all pay full attention to a fictional work whose main premise
is that a nuclear meltdown in the USA would burrow its way through the earth
all the way to China, shouldn't we? Particularly since any knowledge at all
of gravity renders that impossible, and any knowledge of geography means it
should have been called The Indian Ocean Syndrome.
