Holly freaking sheet, that was some earthquake over in Japan, and of all the rotten luck, it had to hit seven reactors built on a fault line...I mean, what are the odds of that happening? It looked for a bit like management at the reactors were going to be able to keep all the damage at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear plant out of the public eye, but was not meant to be.
Steets and some of the others in management here at Indian Point are really worried about the comparisons between us, and the nuclear plant in Japan, afraid the comparisons could cause us some trouble in the relicensing process. NEI and bribes to the NRC aside, there is only so much room under the carpet, and as it is, we have been doing a whole lot of sweeping lately...right now, odds are less than fifty/fifty we will meet the August deadline on the sirens, and you know the public will be screaming for more fines.
With the new Simpson's Movie due out next week, we are looking for some kind of protest action surrounding its release, and that is going to draw more attention to the fact that our evacuation plan will not work...only good news there, is Sam Collins has already admitted that publically, and we will keep the public at bay with false promises of safe sheltering in place. Maybe Truther John can pull a bunny out of his ass and save the day for us, and then we always have Rod Adams, and lets not forget, "This Week In Nuclear".
