Atomic Show number 8 – November 2005 interview with a nuclear mom

ByRod Adams March 27, 2006July 21, 2020

I have decided to offer my November 2005 interview with Kelly Taylor, an active member of the North American Young Generation in Nuclear (NA-YGN) to a new audience by posting it on The Atomic Show as show number 8. If you have never heard this interview and you still think that nukes all look and think alike, you might find that you were wrong.

Now is a good time to catch the show and hear the views of a woman who has built a career in the industry since her high school graduation.

About 18 months ago, a good friend and I began what will probably be a very long endeavor at our current rate. We decided to try to hike the Appalachian Trail (AT) – in sections since we have no real desire to spend six months or more in a continuous hike of more than 2,100…
