Our lawmakers have agreed to increase funding to guarantee up to 80% of loans for nuclear expansion. 17 companies are reportedly planning construct up to 30 new nuclear power stations.
I decided to dedicate my first official Planetsave podcast to the nuclear industry and the threats to our safety that come with it. Several links are mentioned in the podcast, and they are listed below.
Before we start, let me call your attention to some photos taken by the Department of Energy. They show open air storage vessels containing high-level radioactive material.
The image above is one of the three cylinder storage yards in America. You will find more pictures of rusted, leaking and patched cylinders in the Department of Energy link.
So, let’s continue…

My home state is Illinois, and my hometown a little railroad/farming community named Galesburg.We lived on a small farm during my high school years and I became very aware of nature and it's wonders. I loved the out of doors, working with animals, plowing fields and harvesting crops. Those were very good years.After a stint in the Army during the Korean war my broadcasting career took off at the local radio station, a 250 watt "teapot" as it was called in those days. My first job was as an engineer, then the ham came out and I became an announcer/newsman, graduating after several years to a larger market and a stint as a TV journalist/photographer. Cold, wet weather led me to the southwest where I've lived for most of the last 40 years, with a couple of years out to have fun working as a private investigator in San Francisco, and a few years working in Las Vegas hotels and casinos. In all, its been a real ride.After retiring a few years back I became fascinated with the efforts being made to find alternative energy sources. I've watched our environment deteriorate during my lifetime, and now it's my chance to join the chorus of intelligent and caring individuals making a difference one day at a time.

NEVER let Americans touch Nuclear Technology! get over yourselves and go to Canada and get safe reliable and fuel-recyclable “Can Do” reactors. OR: visit http://www.nextenergynews.com/news1/next-energy-news-toshiba-micro-nuclear-12.17b.html
to see Toshiba’s safe,domestic reactors already in world wide use outside propaganda ridden “bigger is better” USA.
Also see McGill University circa 1955 “slow poke” reactor, another realistic energy solution that would prevent the shit skins that collected at the oil well heads and formed opic from hi jacking the American economy at will, and blackmailing American politicians into murdering their soldiers for middle east interests.
