Nuclear Hotseat #58 - July 24, 2012 - Lutz "Nukes" NRC's Whitewash of SanO

Engineer and activist Ray Lutz "nukes" the NRC's cover-up of SCE's responsibility for San Onofre's steam generator problems; 4 nuke plants trigger NRC "Unusual Events" in a single day... but no blackouts; Illinois reactor in "hot water" - at 102 degrees, cooling water can't cool; Japanese prime minister admits that nuclear energy is dividing the nation; TEPCO gets a rate hike as well as a bailout, while temperature gauge cables on verge of breaking at Fukushima and subcontractor forces clean-up workers to cover their dosimeters w/lead shields; and in all this, Russia is doing a better job at protecting its citizens from radiation than the US.!
