Mr. James Tidmore, Chairman Jackson County Commission: "Jackson county can take no other position than to support the TVA in building the reactor facility." "People that are against this facility are misguided and uninformed." I guess the 2 nuclear physicist that spoke in opposition to the facility are less educated than himself on nuclear energy.
Jimmy Sandlin, Electric Power Board Manager: "We are not here to discuss energy policy." "Nuclear energy costs 1.5 cents per KW hr." This statement is untrue, it is in excess of 6 cents per KW hr., http://www.citizen.org/publications/release.cfm?ID=7073
There are some more but my favorite was made by Terry Couch, Jackson County Chamber of Commerce, "George W. Bush supports nuclear reactors, we should support nuclear reactors."
