As anyone who has worked on a nuclear site would no doubt verify, the
time wasting and mismanagement is unbelievable. The number of
abandoned visits made because someone on site hasn't notified the
gate, or some paper clip merchant can't be bothered to turn up for
work on the day was something I lost count of.

It would be so much easier if they stuck the reactor and heat
exchangers half a mile away, left all the security personnel and other
plonkers to guard the place. Then dropped a nice "safe" coal or gas
fired boiler into position for the generators.

I'm sure if everything was actually brought to the publics notice
including the bottomless pit of taxpayers money used to line the
pockets of those fighting "terrorism", nuclear would not be a
consideration for the forseeable future.

If anyone thinks energy is expensive, just look at the waste. Power is
squandered and probably for the same reason we want nuclear power
stations. No individual relates the expense to themselves personally.
All those nice pretty lights in the cities and the new power station
are a long way away from Ones personal meter reading.

Resistance[Ohmic] generation is the true way forward!
