11. Reading doesn't substitute for actual expertise

You think because you can read gives you more expertise than my engineer father with bachelors and masters degrees in engineering, and more than 40 years of aviation and automotive engineering work experience? You could not be more wrong. That's like saying that people who can read but who never went to medical know more than the doctors who went to medical school. That also couldn't be further from the truth. Your disrespect for decades of engineering work expertise that you'll never have is unacceptable. You think it's ok to poison our planet with toxic nuclear waste? Again you couldn't be more wrong. It's clear that you've drunk the nuclear industry's Kool-Aid. It's time for you to face reality and understand that toxic nuclear waste is NOT green and it never will be. My engineer father taught me well about the threat of human caused climate change being caused by the continued burning of fossil fuels and he taught me well that nuclear power is not green because no one has figured out how to dispose of the toxic nuclear waste.
