In response to penn nation
Believe me, I fully understand and appreciate your concern about Indian Point, but it's hypocritical of Governor Cuomo to offer substantial subsidies to keep four upstate plants open while closing Indian Point to allay the fears of people like yourself who live downstate. From a moral standpoint one cannot successfully argue that Governor Cuomo is doing the right thing by keeping upstate people at risk just because less people will die in a nuclear incident upstate than downstate. Anyway, my original point had nothing to do with safety or morality. After being involved with the electrical energy industry for many years, I believe that Cuomo is clueless from a technical standpoint about energy matters and that New York State lacks a well-conceived plan for fulfilling its residents' future energy requirements. Hopefully, I'm wrong, but many technical oriented people share my concern.
