2. great site!

just happened to stumble on this interesting quote while I was there:

"I'll be philosophical. Until about 2 billion years ago, it was impossible to have any life on earth. That is, there was so much radiation on Earth that you couldn't have any life. Fish or anything. Gradually, about 2 billions years ago, the amount of radiation on this planet reduced and made it possible for some forms of life to begin. It started in the seas, I understand from what I've read. And the amount of radiation has been gradually decreasing ... which means that ultimately there will be no radiation.

Now when we go back to using nuclear power, we are creating something that nature tried to destroy to make life possible."

--Admiral Hyman Rickover, developer of the nuclear submarine
