LV, Wish we knew how much of this book value is minimum required to run the operation. Do not believe the plants that they are shutting down will generate very much cash when sold. Just to much capacity out there these days. On the other hand the management has been working on getting down to minimum costs to run the corporation. It will be interesting to see if the Europeans really build an enrichment plant here. The management at USEC has a window of opportunity to get costs down and keep the Europeans at home. <g> One thing the management at USEC has been doing is signing long term contracts with utilities. Hope they have some good contracts folks and have covered all the bases so they make a profit with the business. Joan
