So, I've lived in a lot of different times, at this point, and I think now is a good time. I think a whole majority of us are coming to our senses.There's a lot of momentum on problem things, but it's interesting how some good things come quick! Look at San Onofre! We all expected the gears of corpo-govern-nonsense to move horribly slowly, and then suddenly we got the plant* shut down! Of course, now we need to deal with the waste, but at least we're not making any more. This is progress.
In closing, Joan, I'd like to leave you with a link to me entertaining all of us waiting to get into a meeting of Southern California Gas, the owners of the plant, and the NRC. I give you "What Part Of Fukushima Do You NOT Understand?"
JB: Thanks for the link to your other, equally relevant song. I loved "Democrats are Stupid if They Don't Vote, Republicans are Stupid if They Do." I hope our readers take a moment to watch and listen and pass it on. If it can push some potential voters off the fence** and over to their polling place, it will have served its purpose. Thanks so much for talking with me right before Election Day, Tom. It's been fun!
TE: Thank you again, Joan, for your interest. I love hearing that you enjoy the song!
