Uh, it was a 5.9, there will be no problems at the nuke plant. You have no credentials and your opinion on the matter is of no value. News reports say the nukes were shut down and the diesel generators are now pumping cooling water through the plant. Hopefully, there was no damage, but it has been talked about as a possibility at Lake Anna for years. I'm sure there will be a full inspection before the reactors are restarted. |

Compared to, for example, death by coal-fired plants, nuclear energy is quite safe. FYI, DDT and asbestos were banned by GOVERNMENT action. Nuclear is a scare word. It is dangerous because of the very reason we need it. High energy. I doubt we can have a Japanese type emergency. Modifications have been ongoing on older designs. Newer ones are more advanced than the Westinghouse and Ge designs of the 50s and 60s and Korea and China. We can never stop the natural process of the earth from affecting everything we do and power plants of whatever kind. We are deluding ourselves if we think we can get rid of nuclear, coal, and natural gas and just rely on sunshine, propellers and broccoli sprouts. What's going to power all those electric shoe boxes?Our society and economies is what it was/is because of energy. If we didn't have it well.... we would still be driving horses and burning wood and use outhouses. The European Socialist blueprint is a reduced economy and lifestyle. Americans have too much and are too wealthy as per Brussels Bildrberg members. We should be made to live in a more sustainable economy with higher prices, taxes, social destruction or Multiculturism, and subject to the Global Governance led by Brussels. |

Well, Harry, would you like to have a conversation about different power generating facilities? Care to discuss my training versus your training in that are of expertise? I know, name calling and insulting, it's all you know. He will lie, of course. Harry? Lie? Say it isn't so!! Did you notice how the coward and his side kick backed down once again? |

Those are some pretty good shots , of course there has been cracks in it for some time, but nothing of structure to cause panic, but I think this will get someones attention. With some federal funding and a bunch of corporate and private donations, I imagine it will be repaired better than new. It worked for the Statue of Liberty. |

Maybe if the right wing would be willing to maintain our infrastructure, including funding national parks and monuments, this wouldn't have happened. The monument was restored in 1996 Clinton must have cut corners on the restoration. Infrastructure, LOL... The "shovel ready" projects were a joke, even the few that did get done. We have three in particular here that are just nuts. All three (three towns) were obviously projects that could not get funded, but got funded so the money would not be lost. Anybody who has worked for a town knows you have to spend every penny you get each fiscal year so as not to lose it next time. First in our town, there is a street that runs about 3/8 of a mile between two main roads and runs near the High School. They put 4 brick crosswalks there, They are all bumpy, and there is no reason for them. Two of them go nowhere at all, lead to empty fields, another to a house, and another to an apartment complex. They spend the whole summer ripping up and doing this project, 30 some odd guys, huge equipment, screwed up traffic near the high school all summer, oh, and this tore up the brand new street they just redid last season...when they could have painted crosswalks in a half day... In the next town over they put an island down a main stretch of road where interstate 84 drops off. Half the businesses on that side of the road are hurting, one shut down within a month (gas station/conv store). Again, this is a overdone system of islands and lights, u turns, trees, and signs... It's not even really an intersection, the whole area could have been brought more under control with an extra stop light... In the next town up, it's a way overdone traffic circle with cut granite curbs, and all kinds of landscaping.. This is a 5 corners out in the middle of tobacco country, a total waste. None of these projects "saved or created any job", just the same old town guys doing the same old shuffle... Next year they will be back to the business of the town.. Collecting leaves, sucking out storm drains etc. Only difference is they will ask for another (unfunded) full time union guy or two because they "fell so far behind this year" snerk Yup, 'shovel ready'.. Just about a nonsensical as every dollar "creating" a dollar forty for the economy... LOL! Yep, we sure got screwed on that one. Tell me, are you better off now than you were when the Democrats took over congress or the Whitehouse? I don't know anybody that is... |

I have to wonder if some honest engineer is gonna' look at the cracks in those big blocks and say, "it can't be made safe"... I am not saying it can't, but with such big cracks, in such significant structural components, I have to wonder. |

I am not sure if any different maintenance would change that. I would guess most of the restoration was cosmetic, probably not really structural. The original engineering just seems to have failed.. The Washington Monument is, for all intents and purposes, an unreinforced masonry structure and has little ability to resist the seismic forces of a strong earthquake. I supposed a first-class engineering firm could seismic retrofit it, but the expense would be enormous and there would be visible differences in the monument's appearance. There are some cast iron supports inside the monument, but they are not sufficient to hold the structure up in case of a big quake. In California, which has a lot of unreinforced masonry buildings, significant retrofitting has been mandated, but the purpose of the retrofitting has not been to protect the buildings but, instead, their occupants. This involves installation of a new steel skeleton inside the buildings so that when a large quake hits, the outside of the building may fall into the street, but the inside of the building will not collapse. That's the theory. I'd bet that an earthquake in the "7" range would have flattened the monument. -- I'd much rather be a champion of the powerless than a lickspittle of the powerful. |
