Crosby and Nash urge Vermonters to stand up to Federal Government and Entergy Nuclear over Vermont Yankee license extension

As shown in a YouTube video, musicians David Crosby and Graham Nash, long time anti-nuclear activists, urged an enthusiastic crowd in Burlington, VT on May 11th to not let the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Entergy Nuclear Corporation of New Orleans tell the Green Mountain State what to do -- that Vermont should stand strong on its commitment to shut down Vermont Yankee at the end of its 40 year operating license on March 22, 2012. Nash is also active with Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, and other musicians at Nukefree.org, coordinated by Harvey Wasserman, focused on blocking federal subsidies such as loan guarantees for the building of new atomic reactors and uranium enrichment facilitiles.
