Rod Adams over at Atomic Insights sent me this exchange today.  It is absolutely one of the most impressive online comment exchanges I have ever seen.  Rod brings up a great point about coal mining in Virginia.  Coal mining is one of the most accepted forms of industrial energy activities in the United States, although almost 100,000 people have died in the industry in the past 100 years.  Feel free to add to the exchange if you’d like, although it looks like Rod is holding his own.  I’d like to applaud Rod for not using the hyperbolic hate-speech tactic that is commonly used by the opposition.

Rod certainly was holding his own. But, he came up with such preposterous comments that I had to quit responding to him. The uranium mining battle will be won by pro-uranium mining advocates who charm the masses with sociopathic lies. After all, no one wants to hear that the uranium mining industry has no history of successful mining - especially when it comes to obeying regulations and cleaning up, or reparation.

When it comes to lies, this blog is a big one - how can anyone in their right mind call nuclear energy a "clean" option? Uranium mining is one of the dirtiest industries in the world. Notice, when and if you go to the link on the site to read the comments, that the responders seldom respond to my answers. Instead, a woman named Smidgen and I are bullied by this Clean Energy Insight guy, telling us to back off...before what, I wonder?
