the NRC is a smoke filled room with old pedophiles patting each other on the back for having faced the day's monotony of calling the lawyers and getting them to write off several failed plant safety checks through loopholes. A few months later they're having a nice dinner at the director's house in Cape Cod. They're celebrating managing to clear the same maintenance and resource deprived fifty year old nuclear reactor through 20 more years of service. Meanwhile things like basketball sized holes of corrosion form in the coolant pools and pipes of reactors and other components wear out, often unnoticed for months or years, and in dangerous ways. Many safety engineers refused to sign off on things of this nature, or other safety issues, like inadequate fire protection in the case of earthquakes in some recent court cases. Some brought up the issues directly to the department of energy, bypassing the NRC and angering the smoke filled room. They were fired and effectively blackballed from positions as safety engineers at nuke plants in the US. Some of those people now protest certain nuclear power plants that they themselves worked as safety engineers. makes u think

go away clean coal no one cares
