Published: Nov. 28, 2012, 4:44 a.m.

SAN ONOFRE SPECIAL: Interviews with four So Ca activists on this week's events surrounding Friday's NRC public meeting with Southern California Edison on their numnutz plan to restart San Onofre. Hear from video activist Myla Reson, Gary Headrick of San Clemente Green, Gene Stone from Residents Organized for a Safe Community, and engineer Ray Lutz of Citizen's Oversight on the politics, the positioning, untwisting pro-nuke spin and how in the world Buddhist monks came to be meditating and praying at the foot of the twin reactors themselves. PLUS: UN chastises Japan for post-Fukushima incompetence and cruelty to its own citizens, UK activists blockade Hinkley NPP, Illinois provides free potassium iodide to residents within ten miles of only one of its reactors (why not the other five locations?) and South Korea wonders if cracks in their nuke plant control rod tunnels will impact their efforts to export nuclear technology to other countries (ya think?!?).
