I had a Don't Californicate Oregon sticker on the back of my (bumperless) VW bus in the 1960s. But I was sitting in a meeting of the White Bird free clinic, and someone was making a pitch to get his uncle from Russia and get him a dentist's license. At that point I started seeing Californians as neighbors.

Not speaking for oilpan4, but I go with, in corporate-speak, "Past performance does not guarantee future results".

Oops, I had this queued up when I came here:

Yes SgtLethargic, a pro-nuclear hippy.
I'm not hiding. I currently live in central California.

We're not supposed to talk politics, so I won't comment on the economic and political thoughts that came to mind when I read that nuclear clip.

If nuclear power (electricity generation) had its major cons eliminated, that'd be great. Radioactive waste, finite fuel source, (minding its own business) safety, and (nuclear weapons/war/"terrorism") safety are the big ones that come to mind.

How is that relevant?
