Calling people idiots for expressing their concerns about an emergent disaster is a sure way to alienate them for a long time. Lecturing people about a complex problem using second-hand information about a situation which is changing by the hour also severely undermines any credibility one might have. Waiting for the situation to stabilize and evaluating the lessons afterwards seems a much better response than shrill, ignorant insults. All I have learned from this article is that the author labors under the delusion that people can be bullied into agreement - an immature response to say the least.
I consider myself pro-nuclear, by the way, and am also unhappy with the sensationalist media coverage.
