Ahhh you are Cresser(s), and I claim my £5!
Who has ever seen wind turbines with 24 hr armed police, massive security, and more fences and lights than a prison.
Is the wind blowing from france, .................
Erm except:
"It produces MOX fuel, which recycles plutonium from nuclear weapons, but [u]does not include any reactors[/u]."
No reactors = no meltdown = no bang.
Old skool STW reference there, z1ppy! Nice.

Though all kudo's to Cressers to have left such a lasting impression... free the doom mongering one!
GrahamS - I believe the bang has happened. Maybe not a nuclear bang but one big dirty bang and it could all go wrong (as my old ma says)
Does anyone know what became of cressers ?
I think we need Cressers back. Now is surely his finest hour?
GrahamS - I believe the bang has happened.
Yep, one person killed. Tragic but not exactly Hiroshima.
Does anyone know what became of cressers ?
IIRC banned for here for regular doom mongering, or just upsetting the MOD's, could have come back if he apologised. He wouldn't, I read he went off to Bike Radar(?) and started a regular doom mongering post, then disappeared or was banned
Coal plants are much safer.
Ahhh you are Cresser(s), and I claim my £5!
Unfortunately not, I'm mearly a cheep parody.
ah, don't get me wrong - I'm not a shroud-waving "nein danke" type person, more joining in with the general spirit of the OP from TinaS (any relation ?)
I once gave a talk inspired totally by cressers' stw antics - contained the word "doomed" about 20 times in 45 minutes
Tragic but not exactly Hiroshima.
Hmm. You could apply that same logic to 9/11.
Hmm. You could apply that same logic to 9/11.
I do.
Guess you could apply it to Hiroshima too ?
(err, other than in literal terms)
My parents are down that way on holiday
If they come back with 2 heads each I'll let you all know...
Brooess, they'll never get them through customs
Update:
""There is no chemical or nuclear risk as we speak," a French government spokeswoman told The Wall Street Journal. "It's an industrial accident, not a nuclear accident."The explosion took place in an oven used to incinerate items with low levels of radiation, such as workers' uniforms and gloves, oils and solvents, and metal waste. A member of the French Institute for Radioprotection and Nuclear Safety told the WSJ that because of the low level of radioactivity in the waste products and the fact that damage to the building as a whole was slight, the amount of radiation released should be "very, very low."

So there you go, doom level: "very, very low".
So there you go, doom level: "very, very low".
Can you be slightly doomed, though? Surely doom's a binary setting?

Bang, back to burning coal for th next 50 years then....
According to the Doom Mongers of the late 1890s (or thereabout), coal was due to run out around 1912.
So therefore it is not possible because coal does not exist anymore.
After all, Doom Mongers are never wrong*.
*I wonder what became of Glol W*g .......
The climate was right for a change.

Coal plants are much safer.
And doubly so when you include the necessary mining: http://frankwarner.typepad.com/free_frank_warner/2006/01/us_coal_mining_.html
Nuclear power still seems safer than car culture. Less deaths, less associated environmental and human health problems...
So there you go, doom level: "very, very low".
Whatevah. We all glowed in the dark last night down 'ere. 8) That brightly, honest, guv.
Not really, but judging by the hysteria of some people in these parts, you'd have thought so.

Except the link you gave was for a gas power station (and I am surprised to be the first to notic, pull yer socks up STW)
errr slightly off the whole topic and back to the DOOOOMMM part, I've received a mail from Cressers, saying "the Doomster lives, you may want to get your fix of Doom" by finding him on the Bike Radar Cake Stop (or his email if you want it). He also say he's been gone 5 years, which I find hard to believe it's been so long...time flies when you having fun?
