I have finally uploaded a draft set of slides on Underwriter Certification to the Flop book site. I've split the 50+ slides into two decks.
Part 1 explains why the current NRC-based system is clobbering humanity. Part 2 outlines how UCert would be implemented and argues that the infrastructure to implement UCert is already in place. All it takes is the political will.
The illiterate in the choir will complain there are too many words and not enough pictures. I agree with the latter. We need more and better graphics. Any suggestions, contributions welcome. (The GKG needs somebody with graphics skills. Pay is canned goods and indulgences. Volunteers?)
I'm reliably informed that recent versions of Acrobat do a surprisingly good job of converting the GKG PDF slides to Powerpoint. After the conversion you can do all sorts of nefarious changes. Please do not attribute altered slides to GKG without checking with me first.
These slides depend on the SNT presentation which depends on the radiation damage and repair presentation. There is no point in giving these slides unless the audience is familiar with this material. It could be counter productive. People, we are talking about solving energy poverty and global warming. Is an hour or so of study asking for too much?
It's not very nice to say that those who think there are too many words in your draft are "illiterate". You should welcome constructive criticism - kindness is more effective than ridicule. Your knowledge and intellect could be very helpful in leading the country (and the world) to greatly needed nuclear power if you weren't so narrow minded and sometimes even mean-spirited in your attitude toward others.
What is a helpful way to contribute line edits ("nits") for typos etc.?
