The media has gotten astonishingly vulnerable with listening to the single data point of Dave and the UCS. Dave comes from an engineer’s centric model of knowing a nuclear power plant instead of a licensed operator’s model of knowing a power plant. Some say he is angling for a NRC commissioner seat. Others think the NRC is entering a startling transition period…basically two commissioners have recently got politically fired and the whole NRC framework of regulations might be a stake when he brings on the new commissioners. The senate for the first time in the history of the NRC will need only 50 votes to confirm a new commissioner instead of 60 votes. It’s Reid’s nuclear option. These will be solely democrat choices.
Fracting is putting a beyond a once every a 100 year storm on the utilities and nuclear industry. The new reserves of natural gas are a “game changer” and the size of these reserves just might now be bigger than our imagination. It driving down the price of electricity and our national electricity load growth has been really weak since 2008.
So we set up our faux reality by a group of written and unwritten rules. If the world goes according to the rules then we are ok. But we have very little idea who gets advantage by the rules or the real motivations why the rules are written.
Do you know what a stellar black hole organization is? It is an organization who is powerful enough to suck in and control all information about itself. It sucks away all light itself. It controls all the rules associated with the organization. It only gives out daylight that is favorable to themselves and they play a extremely powerful influencer to other organizations around and above them. They are beyond the control of most nations and political system. They control the political systems about themselves. GM with their weak key ignition was a small organizational black hole. Most of our large institutional failures are black holes. You can use rules for unbelievable good things and to create horrible wrongs…they are just a tool. GM, the Japanese nuclear village/ Fukishima, 9/11, TMI, David Besse, nazi Germany, Nasa's two shuttles destruction, Katrina and our near economic collapse are black holes... That sucking feeling you perceive from the NRC, Dave and UCS is coming from a black hole…
I am setting up a rules system. Lets say you got a GM car with four passengers. What is the definition of safety…certainly not the reasonable person’s definition of safety? GM and the feds define safety (just make believe) as an event that could or did kill all four occupants in a car. An injury in a GM car accident, one occupant dead, indeed a dead pedestrian isn’t “safety related” according the generally accepted secret rules. The grand Establishment’s Jim Crow laws of the old south are very similar to this. Usually they are playing these games for billions dollars, status advantage and self-interest. This is the nuclear industry’s system of risk perspectives. It sets up the reality you think you know in your head. It is designed so you only see the tip of the ice berg.
If this unscrutinizable engineering or computer program of risk perspective program is so accurate, why couldn’t they use it to predict and anticipate the terrible behavior of the Salem plant’s staff or predict the broken bolts, or Salem would ignore prior notification. I dare you to try to get risk perspectives explained to you by Salem or the NRC! I guarantee you won't understand it.
None of these GM guys could imagine a weak ignition key switch could or would cause so much death and injury…would finally make this horrendous system of secret rule visible.
We could have a GM weak ignition switch accident in the nuclear industry in USA, not a full blown Fukushima… it would have terrible results for our nation.
Believe me, everyone is highly attuned to your question asking…
