Ran into an article that said 1) you cannot plan nor built for ALL the weird things that might happen and 2)even if you could human ignorance, greed, stupidity and carelessness will eventually do you in anyhow.<br />Telling me that something is as safe as human technology can make it is NOT reassuring.The Blog Fodderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11441978691701289074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-35944235695325214002011-06-27T10:34:38.563-07:002011-06-27T10:34:38.563-07:00Do you know how many reactors there are in the Pud...Do you know how many reactors there are in the Pudget Sound area?BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-70080091954126942852011-06-27T09:08:07.790-07:002011-06-27T09:08:07.790-07:00There is a reactor at Los Alamos?

If the fire boils that water off, presto no secondary heat exchange. Therefore presto no primary heat exchange either.<br />Therefore the core overheats.<br /><br />Even when the chain reaction is shut down, the thermal neutrons still produce several megawatts of heat, maybe 10-15% of the reactors peak capacity.<br /><br />MELTDOWN! :-(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-34490274383628106512011-06-27T06:56:57.515-07:002011-06-27T06:56:57.515-07:00Mankind's arrogance is pathetic.
