STARK RAVING MAD

  • The American Sentinel 589, p5, available from Radio Center, Suite 2E, 3229 South Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28209, reports about one of the people killed as a result of laws banning the hunting of mountain lions. Barbara Schoener was mauled to death by a cougar. Friends and neighbors raised $9,000 to help Mrs. Schoener's two orphaned children while "professional environmentalists" raised $21,000 for the cougar's cubs. Animal worship and human sacrifices have afflicted mankind for thousands of years.

  • The headline in USA Today for November 18,1996 read "Russia Mars Probe Crashes: Plutonium was concern as debris falls in Pacific." The Russian Mars lander carried two small plutonium electric power generators about the size of a 35mm film case with a pencil- eraser sized pellet of plutonium. Each generator produced 6 watts of power. Yet, the alleged "danger" from these batteries rated a headline and was given greater priority in the article than was the unfortunate loss of this space vehicle.

  • "The Nuclear Fleecing of America" by Harold M. Agnew, Science 273, p 1475 (1996), reports that the Clinton Administration bias against nuclear power plants is causing rejection of the option of using a nuclear reactor to produce tritium necessary for maintenance of the nation's nuclear weapons. The reactor would pay for its own construction and operation by sale of the electricity that it would produce. Instead of a reactor, the Administration wants to use a particle accelerator that will require the equivalent of a nuclear reactor just to supply it with power for operation.
