this is the beginning of the end of nuclear power in japan. maybe the usa. probably europe
I doubt that, and I have numbers to back me up Majority Americans Say Nuclear Power Plants Safe Americans are fear mongers and still think nuclear power is safe after the incident. Since Japan loves futuristic tech and had no problems with it before the incident I doubt the fear will stick as much as you think it will. What is your basis for such a high level of fear?
I don't dispute that you can live without meat
I do. http://voraciouseats.com/2010/11/19/a-vegan-no-more/ It's long and anecdotal but worth a read. The general gist of it is that she was a vegan for many years but get horribly sick because no matter what she tried she could not put together a diet that did not leave her in a state of malnutrition. Once she (very very reluctantly) started eating meat again she was back to healthy in no time.
As a species we have eaten meat for too long. Yes, Americans eat far to much meat and some people might be able to do with out it but to say that it's possible for everyone to do with out it is wrong.
An important point in that link is that she clams to have contacted other vegan bloggers and they said in private that they cheat and have meat on occasion to keep healthy. To me this is a sign that while many people brag about having not eaten meat in X years most of them are likely lying to preserve their hard earned and (in their social circles) highly respected vegan status. They put so much effort in to something they believed in only to have it thrown back in their face as impossible must be a horrible experience that they refuse to come to terms with.
It seems that more and more mathematicians are using a new, high level language named "research student".
