Wing-nut Ariel Beery, arguing the case for a clandestine Iraqi nuclear weapons program, asks:
“Can anyone explain how Uranium
can be used for peaceful purposes?”
Fortunately, Areva has a very simple explanation of the nuclear fuel cycle, using animation to help the Ariel Beeries of the world.
Beery is a Columbian for Academic Freedom. Apparently, neither irony nor physics are in the Columbia curriculum.
“Academic freedom” is a euphemism for taking cheap shots at SIPA’s Dean Lisa Anderson, one of the nicer people you’ll ever meet and one hell of a scholar.
