Occupy is dead, it's ineffective...
So, I woke up with some not completely unexpected news, but surprising nonetheless.

The San Onofre Station is to be decommissioned.

http://www.eastcountymagazine.org/node/13374

Now, here is some background from the pesky reporters notebook. Who's would that be?

The slight nuclear release that led to the findings of the redesign parameter happened after Fukushima. So Carol Jankwow from Occupy Encinitas brought this...we might need to organize to the General Assembly. Occupy Encinitas is...admitedly, a small group, but after a lively discussion, the GA achieved consensus and a plan was born.

The GA was also aproached by other grass roots organizers among them Ray Lutz and Marta Sullivan. They also approached other Occupy groups, such as Vista, which joined them. Off to the races we go.

Their aproach originally was a tad of civil disobedience with a lot of education and getting city councils all over San Diego's north County and South Orange County to pass on resolutions. In other words, they acted like little children.

Then they attended almost every government open meeting, and held some creative demonstrations outside the plant. Oh...there was some occupying of courts as well, regarding the CPUC. They wanted to keep an open meeting closed, those pesky demonstrators are scary...no, the judge was not convinced they posed a clear and open threat.

While SCE blames the NRC, the NRC got a lot of citizen pressure, and later were joined by a couple US Senators.

But here I sit, occupy is dead, and damn it, ineffective. Still is, DUmbass.

Now on to write the story on citizen action and a casino... But I thought this little insight might help to get some added context... Oh noes!!1!11! Not a casino!!1!

She got her butt spanked over wind farms, so she swaps to another topic.
This is what cracked me up.

5. You welcome 

I thought this insight might help to put some of this in context. They also see it as phase one. Phase two... well decommissioning a plant is not cheap. Guess who SDG&E and SCE will want to bill for it?

One other comment that was interesting.

2. Damn lazy ineffectual occupiers.... True.

Diablo Canyon a bit too close to populations for my tastes, 5.25 million within 50 miles (compared to 390,219 for Diablo Canyon NPP).

BTW, I ran into Occupy Fresno last Wednesday, was surprised to see them!
After which, there was a photo of maybe 30 people.

Thirty out of a city with how many residents?  Pathetic.  Occupoop is dead.

Sounds like the Occupoopers are trying to take credit for what was essentially an economic decision.

Must be the drug induced stupor these pukes run around in. They still think DUmb****s can make some kinda diff. There are more people at my county fair than occupied anything!

Drug users, rapists, and all around miscreants will never sway the public mind of true Americans.

Talk about "pipe dreams"! [Pun intended!]
