No wonder USU’s been shooting up. Newsweek’s 4/2 issue:

A Nuclear Power Play
Considered politically dead for decades, nuclear power is finding new life in George W. Bush’s White House.

Cheney’s energy task force has built-in ties to the nuclear industry. A key member of the task force, Energy Department official Joe Kelliher, was a longtime nuclear-power lobbyist. Another connection: Roy Coffee, who worked as Gov. Bush’s lobbyist in Washington, was recently hired by the Nuclear Energy Institute, the industry’s lobbying group. Nuclear executives have enjoyed extraordinary access to the energy task force, meeting repeatedly with top Bush officials, including economic adviser Larry Lindsey and Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham—who mentioned nukes in a major “energy crisis” speech last week. At the meetings, the executives laid out their case for a nuclear revival.

USU new board member: “Moore also served as Deputy Secretary of Energy (1989-1992) and in 1992 became Deputy Chief of Staff for President George Bush.”

Good call on USU. You are goooooood. They really should have you on CNBC.
