Arnie Gundersen: Post Fukushima USA Nuclear Reactors Design Flaws to NRC 10/22/11

Post Fukushima: All the King's Horses and All the King's Men...
http://fairewinds.com/content/post-fukushima-all-kings-horses-and-all-kings-men
Fairewinds' Chief Engineer Arnie Gundersen testifies to the NRC Petition Review Board detailing why the 23 BWR Mark 1 nuclear power plants should be shut down following the accidents at Fukushima. True wisdom means knowing when to modify something and knowing when to stop. Sometimes, all the King's horses and all the King's men should not try to put Humpty Dumpty together again.

Archived webcast of Beyond Nuclear's emergency enforcement petition to NRC on Mark 1s now available
The archived webcast of Beyond Nuclear's October 7th, 2011 NRC Petition Review Board meeting on its 10CFR2.206 emergency enforcement petition is now available. Beyond Nuclear was joined by numerous allies from various grassroots anti-nuclear groups who live in the shadows of General Electric Mark 1 boiling water reactors -- identical twins to the design at Fukushima Daiichi Units 1 to 4.

Thank you Arnie ,god bless you for your hard work and honesty

[docatomics]

...if any desire to continued to make fallen star nuclear fission reactors within effective range of my Earth

~then you must make these nuclear fusion piles below the lowest point of the water table in lithosphere that is proven stable

=leave all radioactive waist down with reactors when done;

+all dangerous industry must now post a gold or acceptable surety into public trust equal to all potential harm possible in worst cause failure from proposed enterprise until all danger is remedied

[TheLycaeum]

Look at the transcript at 3:38 to 3:45, they replaced "inadequate to handle normal reactor forces" by "inadequate to handle {inaudible}", pretty convenient, WTF?

[CTOL1]

We're in A LOT of trouble

[cbemerine]

At least they did not shuffle papers this time as a few members did the last time he addressed them...it was very disrespectful, perhaps they were aware they were on camera. They guessed correctly that if they were rude to Arnie, this time as some were last time, that many of us would make it our life mission to get our elected representatives to oust them off the committee...either that or we primary the politician in order to get someone that puts safety first. Nuclear power costs too much.

@docatomics or, its all in your head...yeah that one

[docatomics]

...am I the only one getting this audio phsy-opps "wammy bar" effect on my viewscreen speakers,

~or is it a custom screen to make it "mind fucking unrecallable" by the NSA shills that infect YouTube

=or am I being tax fucked by the ECHLON shills between me and the YouTube server ?
