Voice your opinion! Send Letters-to-the- Editor to: Two weeks ago we, as resi- ced what experts are calling the worst nuclear accident to occur ever. It brought to our attention the painful reality that at least “one nuclear power plant was not properly maintained. As a result a safety mechanism failed. That coupled with Human error made for a near catastrophic disaster. Presently many groups are protesting around the country and ‘the world, nuclear power to be banned entirely. We, who are close to the _infamous reactor site, have the ‘most cause to call for such action. However, closing down all nu- clear power plants and halting ther construction of new plants is not the answer to the problem. Without nuclear energy the needs of the people, your needs, would be grossly curtailed. One must consider that nuclear energy is just an intermediate form until some other power source is discovered. Everyone complains about inflation and the gas and oil bills they pay. Take away nuclear power and every- one is in for an energy shock. The American people have demon- strated that they are not willing to cut back on their energy consumption unless forced to. By dents of Pennsylvania, experien- asking for no means is nuclear power the answer to our energy needs for the future, but as it stands now it seems to be the only viable source for the large amounts of energy we, as Americans, de- mand. This is not to say that you shouldn't be outraged, fright- ened, and upset by the Three “Mile Island . Crisis. The . more. shaken you are the better. However, don't automatically clamp down on the nuclear power industry. We, should be educated to problems ospch as these. They. will only \ ‘become worse in the future if we do not regulate and restrict them now. Being ignorant once can possibly be excused, but being ignorant twice is foolish if not fatal. Express your opinions on the matter after you educate yourself. Write your congress- man or Senator. Make your voice heard. If you as an individual don’t take action now you have only yourself to blame in the event of another Three Mile Island. The worst thing you can do is to settle back into your comfortable, electric, existence and let the “experts take care of it all.” Call for the enactment of stricter, safer, nuclear power regulations. — Christine Megargel, Editor deavors are appreciated Edward F.
