All,
 
Notice the (double edged) absence (news  blackout) of any NEWS about the 
citizen intervention against the  Florida Power and Light 2200 MW, 12/24 billion 
dollar nuclear power plants  proposal for Turkey Point Florida.
Jan and I, the only environmentalist with economic concerns about the  
project did a good job given our resources to draw out the experts FP&L put  on the 
stand. Not a word in the Tallahassee or Miami papers.
The only coverage we got was a well done five minute NPR  interview with a 
reporter from 88.9 Tallahassee radio Capitol  Report, embeded in their evening 
broadcast. 
More later as now we work on our post hearing brief. Thanks to the few who  
offered or gave help.
 
Someone please distribute this information to the list serves other than  
Nuke net that I can't reach since I am not a member. 
 
Bob Krasowski
FP&L ratepayer and intervenor.
Also of
The Florida Alliance for a Clean Environment
