Excellent FDL Book Salon On Nuke Power

FireDogLake had an excellent Book Salon with Joseph Mangano regarding his book on nuclear power in the United States.  An utter, disastrous misunderstanding of the realities of commercial nuclear power generation is one of the biggest problems with 'left' 'liberal' 'progressive' people in the US.  Every time I hear or read some asshole say nukes are '100% pollution free and green' in an environment where it is clear that the asshole in question is not some ignorant wingnut cocksucker, I realize once again how fucked we are as a people.  It should be better understood around there that nuclear power is the most polluting form of electricity generation, and anyone who doesn't comprehend that is too stupid to live.
