nothing they can do about that nuke. that's how it often is, once it rains there's a good chance it will pour.

the 'everything that can go wrong will go wrong' law, i believe named after a certain Murphy.

i have good reason to be extremely wary of the banks...i think above law will apply to them in spades, especially once the RE bubble implodes too.

It appears a large percentage of our nations nuclear plants are operating at 100% capacity.

nrc.gov

a plant trip or forced outage, especially in CA would probably be very stressful to the grid stability.

The real estate market is really starting to worry me. If there was a little more fear, I think people would have some money tucked away. But I think a lot of the middle class and newly rich are being extremely reckless instead. When it goes, I don't think it will take much selling to put a big dent in real estate prices. My guess is the bag holders will be the banks and those with loans of over 80% value, and the winners will be those on short term leases.
