- Neil, Given the nature of the publication, it's probably not worth the effort of responding to errors in the article.
- Thanks, Rick

- Rick, I talked to this reporter for quite some time. I know she works for an "alternative" newspaper (that is, not a mainstream publication and far more leftish than rightish), but she didn't even try to balance her story.
Comment from myself and the plant's spokesman were relegated to the very tail end of the story while Mr.
Blanch, Mr. Shadis and others had free reign to make their points. What's even more unforgivable, though, is that she got so much wrong, including confusing reactor coolant system pressure and post-accident conditions in containment. My initial reaction is that most people who read this will see it for what it is: biased reporting designed to support the activists' agenda. As such, it may not be worth the effort to correct all the she got wrong. But if we decide we do want to correct it, I'd be willing to work on a response.

I'm not sure what this publication is (i.e., online magazine or print magazine) but it's cover story "Time Bomb?" and two other stories "Updates: Facelifts for Aging Nukes" and "Hidden Exemptions" discuss the VY power uprate:
