Regarding the small nuclear reactors in the article: I'm a big booster for nuke power, but even I don't see mini-nukes being all over the place, mainly for security reasons. I DO see them being good for expanding regular nuke plants, adding capacity by adding modules. Since they would be standard modules, there would be no justification for massive paperwork, nor endless hearings, in order to add a new module.

Are you saying if someone destroys your family or flies a plane into the twin towers that you're not supposed to hate them for it and you're supposed to love and understand them?

It's a good idea. Whether or not he was a christian, it is what Jesus taught. Gautama Siddhartha was also big on the concept.

Hatred just makes people irrational. That can only lead to poor decision making.

I used to have ringlets like that when I was a little girl. We didn't have curlers back then and my mother used to roll my hair up on rags and tie them to make my hair come out lookin' like that.

Not you. Them.

I'm not into powerboats. Especially pretentious ones. However, I do admire fine marine craftsmanship, as you may remember from my prior post about the classic chris craft motor launches. If someone were to OFFER me a sea going motor vessel I would hope it would be one of these ...
