The Charts (Original & Modified) help clarify the options for RRW/RRR, or whatever term you prefer.<br /><br />The Reliability/ Confidence issues are imo, for the Labs to decide. As for my interest, improved Safety & Security are the issues most important from my perspective.<br /><br />It's an important & interesting debate but, I believe the RRW/ (New WH Design) is going nowhere (no political support/funding) in the current Administration/Congress. As for modernization of the NWC, my guess is it will be kicked further down the road before a decision.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28220200.post-25406920572475173092009-11-16T13:24:27.646-07:002009-11-16T13:24:27.646-07:00“With 5 caveats, I am not at all fundamentally opp...“With 5 caveats, I am not at all fundamentally opposed to new, untested nuclear warheads.”<br /><br />Cool! We’ll just take a primary from one weapon and a secondary from another, bolt um together & presto – we got us a new untested warhead. You gotta love that Best Combo logic. Sure it’ll work ok – no need for any of that bad o testing stuff. Getter done boys!<br /><br />That 4th Caveat is a beaut – “We do not disturb progress in the world toward nuclear non-proliferation…” Just exactly what progress would that be – Iran, N. Korea or Mexico & Bangladesh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28220200.post-10504736077884312032009-11-16T10:29:38.754-07:002009-11-16T10:29:38.754-07:00Roger Logan is an active member and promoter for T...Roger Logan is an active member and promoter for Tri-Valley CAREs.
