@g12g2000yqd.googlegroups.com, says...

Japanese were asked what should be done regarding the nation's nuclear
power plants, 2 percent said more nuclear plants should be built.
Twenty-five percent said they are in favor of the status-quo, while 42
percent said the number of plants should be reduced. Twenty-one
percent said all nuclear power plants should be eliminated.

Basing such important decisions on how the population "feels" about
where they get their power is awfully stupid. Hopefully Japan's leaders
aren't as dumb as the general population.

In any case it will likely take one more nuke plant accident to kill
the entire industry. The companies involved can move to cleaning up
old plants...

You said the same thing repeatedly about the shuttle, now you're crying
because the program is ending!

I have a feeling the Japanese population will feel differently after
they start to see the death toll caused by lack of air conditioning this
summer due to lack of nuclear power. We should keep score here. So
far, zero deaths from radiation. How many deaths due to the heat so
far?
