With the looming energy crisis, it is clear that we must revive the licensing of nuclear reactors by securing both their radioactive fuel and waste in use, storage, or transit from mishaps accidental or seismic; as well as from seizure or explosive scattering by terrorists.

Although I believe that the process known as Global Warming is taking place, I recognize that the theory is at a stage that necessitates a scrutiny and counter scrutiny that can only benefit science. As an American, however, I envy Canadians and others in being governed by a greater pragmatism. Science loves absolute certainty; pragmatism knows well the importance of certain enough. An uncontested affirmation of Global Warming will elude posterity because its being successfully halted resembles its never having been; and devastation could as easily be attributed to the crest of some primeval cycle.
