Your Moral and Intellectual Superiors

Hey, David, selling any of your places on the coast? If you really believe what you say you should be willing to let them go really cheap for a quick sale.

Just give me a shout. We may be able to do some business.

"Letting in the Light" is an oxymoron if it's David Suzuki delivering the message. Light and **it storm don't go together.

Ah, 3 reactors already failed and we are still here. the 4th one fails and end of the world? I think he must have been standing on a 7 magnitude quake and got his marbles shook loose. Oh wait, he has always been a dottering idiot spewing nonsense.

Fukashima IS a disaster with global consequences (far worse than Chernobyl's air-borne radioactive particulate - sustainability of pacific fisheries are now questionable) and it was the height of folly to build nuke plants on an earthquake fault and tsunami corridor without worst-case containment systems - that much is fact - the rest of what Soozook mutters regarding climate and petro technology is far more incongruent than one of Rob Ford's drunken stupors.

Me thinks the biggest issue Dr. fruitfly has with Fukishima is that the floating debris and radiation will be dropping his Island property values.

Ever notice that he always panders to his base congregation by bringing up drunken debauchery in one form of imagery or another?

The #4 reactor was de-fuelled for routine maintenance when the earthquake and tsunami struck. If Suzuki was a practicing scientist he would cite this report so that the rest of us could read and judge for ourselves. Oh wait, I forgot, us proles with only one house are not capable of forming opinions.

".... if in fact the fourth plant goes under in an earthquake...." Beg pardon, the reactors are built on bedrock, the Japanese removed tens of thousands of tons of loose soil so they could anchor the structures to the bedrock. The only way for them to 'go under' is if the chunk of Japan they're on sinks beneath the waves, a very unlikely occurrence.

Yeah well, what amuses me is these fools continue to cite
"The China Syndrome" as a prospect.

Beside the movie there is no basis for this......Chernobyl had a core melt down and it never happened. After the core melted it's way through the bottom of the reactor vessel the core material, mixed with the melted vessel material became sub critical and formed a solid puddle on the reactor building floor.......done.

These anti-nuke alarmists rely on public ignorance and confuse the slow reactor reaction with the fast reaction of a nuclear weapon.....it's like comparing a Cummins Diesel to a MOAB.

Then the embarrassing reality that reactor #4 is inert/empty of nuclear fuel........

Well said batb and sasquatch.

Suzuki has made millions from all the suckers with the "Chicken Little" schtick about the sky is falling.

Empty of fuel, just like Dr. Fruitflies brain.....Every time I hear another of these morons scare speeches I'm reminded of Michael Creightens State of Fear book. Fuitfly, Gore, etc have obviously also read it they're using the same methodology.

Once again David Suzuki demonstrates the adaptability of the human species. His "milk the fear" meme for global warming/climate change is falling out from under his feet. Now he adapts his "milk the fear" by using his genetic heritage scientists as the foil in reviving the nuclear meltdown meme.

Sadly the hysteria from the three mile island (sic)emergency created a decades long North American absence from nuclear development. Meanwhile France; Germany; et al have been using nuclear for decades.

The obvious solution is to make nuclear energy as cheaply available and safe to use as the extremely volatile energy source of gasoline is in the automobile. Cheers;

Suzuki is not completely off the wall here the danger is from an accident while removing the stored fuel rods.

With any luck this will veer Northwards to Suzuki's place

Floating island of rubbish three times size of BRITAIN floating towards California

Yep, I totally remember people dying like flies on the West Coast of B.C. from radiation poisoning caused by the fallout from two atomic bombs detonated in the air over Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In the air, I tell you!

Good thing for David he was in an internment camp in the Interior, or he would have died, just like my parents did, years before my birth.

Suzuki has now graduated from a national embarrassment to an international one and we have our own CBC to thank for enabling him and giving him his soapbox. The 'Uber' elites at the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. did an outstanding job in brainwashing two generations of Canadians into believing that anything Suzuki utters is 'Gospel'. Fortunately, thanks to SUN NEWS, Canadians have seen the true huckster Suzuki is while he is still alive and not like the fiasco that evolved in the BBC after Jimmy Saville's death.

Suzuki IS, unfortunately, still one of the most trusted public figures in Canada.Take a look at the comments at the link, Suzuki's fan club,and there are millions of 'em, believe every word he says,without question.

SUN-TV has to get this guy on their network to debate with real scientists who can debunk his hysterical lies.

Not that he'd ever show up.

Here is an excellent reference: The next Japanese nuclear accident (it’s inevitable) will be even worse. A quote for Al_in_Ottawa: The amount of Cesium 137 in the fuel rods at Fukushima Daiichi is the equivalent of 85 Chernobyls. The debris field in the ocean has taken from months to years to get here. If an earthquake disables the cooling of the nuclear material at Fukushima and exposes it to air, it will spontaneously burn, and get to North America by air in hours to days.

He refuses to debate, Don.

@David, I am quite sure he does know what he's talking about. I've been following his columns (mostly on computers) for at least 20 years and found them very reliable. I myself have taken some Nuclear Engineering courses recently, and I have a physics background, so I can also confirm that what he says makes sense, though I have no independent confirmation of the quantities of waste involved and the risk of mechanical failure.

David Suzuki Cares way more about sex than radiation. The science thing is only his hook. Pus it makes him rich from suckers of the 10th maggot level..

David Suzuki: Greatest (Sex-Obsessed) Canadian

Suzuki is a moron..so says NPR radio today

"Dr.' Suz, and I put Dr. in parentheses for a reason, has not, (after a thorough Google search), done any scholarly peer reviewed work since 1973. I found a total of 3 including what I believe was his 1968 doctoral thesis. Even that I believe was probably awarded out of sympathy or some kind of quota or maybe plagiarism, since his 'body' of work since that time is not even an emaciated skeleton. Since that time, he has contributed to one textbook and written numerous columns on anything and everything that is doom-mongering 'science' outside the genetics field.

He is a complete huckster and I wish people would exchange the 'DR' for a regular 'Mr.' Listening to his meanderings he sounds like a present day 9th grader searching for a coherent, cogent thought of some magnitude, but only managing to sound indolent and incoherent. All he has been competent at the past number of decades is reading a script prepared by others.

Apparently there was going to be a very deadly radioactive cloud sweep over the W. coast not that long ago. One of the things I have in my basement is a Geiger Counter that I use primarily as a source of truly random numbers and it times every Geiger Counter event to 1 msec precision. Every so often I graph the data as cpm averaged over 1 minute intervals. Usually it's just a boring fuzz of lines with a mean value of about 16 cpm in this part of BC. However, around the time that that "dangerous" radioactive cloud was going to end all life on the W. Coast, I got a blip of 150 cpm but for just 1 minute. This was around the time that the radioactivity from Japan was supposed to hit us. That 150 cpm peak is real and, the extreme count I've gotten in over a year of monitoring is about 35 cpm. If the background radiation went up to 150 cpm for months, I might worry a little but 150 counts for a single minute? Only a moonbat would lose sleep over something like that.

Apparently in Hawaii, people's home monitoring systems showed 100+ cpm counts for longer periods, but, curiously, no-one provided a graph of how frequently these events occurred. I can confidently say, with 99.9999% accuracy that this 150 cpm blip was most likely related to the Fukashima reactor (and the 0.0001% probability is for a highly focused gamma ray burst hitting my house). It's nice to be able to pick up such events and I hope that the radiation incident on the BC coastline becomes sufficiently interesting that it causes moonbat meltdowns and Dr. Fruitfly's property values to plummet. I would view this as a very good time to pick up some waterfront Vancouver property should frequent 100+ cpm radiation peaks become a daily occurrence on the BC coast.
