It's not just the risk. It will be the impact If our nuclear plants keep showing their age. Utilities claim they're at very low risk From Inhofe's tornadoes, fires and floods at this stage. Tell that to Joplin's homeless survivors. It isn't the risk. It's a tornado's impact, Like an earthquake's tsunami, a typhoon's tidal wave, And nuclear nutjobs in charge refusing to act. If Indian Point were a tornado's target… Can't happen? Take a close look at Wilbraham, Mass. How big a tornado would let Indian Point Make Fukushima feel out of its class? Will we blame Mitch McConnell and his nuclear club If one of our nuclear plants goes kerflooey? Or maybe the media for its lack of attention? Or will blame be too late after all of their hooey? Who'll be Humpty Dumpty? New York or LA? Is the "tornado alley" that remains a licensed RN? Is that where all nuclear CEOs live Who'll never get Humpty together again?
