I actually get a lot of encouragement from that. I appreciate your posts. I must confess a lot of it goes over my head but regardless I read them.
This forum helps me a lot.

I wish I could say that I do it in the interests of science-and there is a bit of that. But I do it more as an intellectual exercise to become comfortable with science communication - something I really struggle with.

Regarding your crusade, I am the sort of lazy environmentalist who backs green energy but certainly I do not know anything about it. I am struggling to keep up with my own field, so I don't get around to looking at stuff like that. I accept whatever is current dogma within those sciences. I hadn't really thought much about nuclear energy - I have the same generic orthodoxy on that most lefties do, but it isn't something I have strong views on. I will certainly check out your posts amd educate myself on that.
