Default Thread in which dfg educates us about nuclear power and radiation safety using televi
so childlike from someone with a phd.

KrazyHorse-"Holding a PhD in physics gives me some credibility when I talk about basic nuke operation and physiological impact of radiation, yes." Yor funny

Yes, I was quite deluded at that point. Since then, I have learned that having a television show is the correct prerequisite.

If you were to watch more educational shows you might learn something.

well these are real experts and not pretend or want to be.
Yes, science popularizers are well-known for their ability to impart a deep understanding of the broad range of subjects they cover. That is why science popularizers are generally regarded as the best minds in their fields.

Oh, I am ever so embarrassed by the quote you've now placed in your sig. It utterly wrong of me to mock you when you've obviously applied your razor-sharp intellect to this subject.

Yes, I was wrong in assuming that the critical review of the empirical literature on the subject of the epidemiology of low doses of ionizing radiation I read 5 or 6 years ago has any relevance to this question. I'm glad that we've established that your understanding is superior to my own.
I never said I was superior to you, You and that other cumwad (Hauldren Collider) jumped me because I said no amount of radiation is safe.

You need to except that and quite looking down on those who you think your smarter than you think you are.
As ever, your posts are paragons of English virtue. Thank you for your continued poetic contributions to this site. If you did not get it then you really are a azzhole.

Yes, thank you for pointing out that I am a cumwad. Your insults are simply Shakespearean in their elegance.

I really don't care what you think or feel. I think your funny, arrogant statement should be seen by all.

Let's set the record straight.

Dfg is an expert on circuses, and Olgie is the real expert on nuclear safety.
Not even close.

You might well know more about the operation of the plants though. RSOs are more physicists than they are engineers.

EDIT: sorry, misread your sro as rso...

Got the acronym wrong. SRO = Senior reactor operator. (these ar ethe guys that run the control rooms) These guys are all degreed engineers likely coming up through the navy program but have years upon years of training and/or ops knowledge speciifc to the given reactor design and site specifics.

Its hard to acutally translate the expertise and level of training these guys get. I'm a generalist that works across theindustry on various models and flavors of reactors and more particularly the interfacing systems Balance of Plant (BOP)
. What knowledge I get is typically first and formeost from the plant Safety Analysis Reports (SAR's) and tech specs. (in other words their permitted licensing operating conditions)

The SROs are epxected to know the systems inside and out.

Not a clue. I only have knowledge of the light water reactors and typically only US models dealing with U235 based fuels.
