This is an extremely interesting talk on oil. Highly recommended. One of the most rational discussions of peak oil and it's effects I've ever read (and has moved me closer the the peak oil camp) aph.gov.au

Heatwave shuts down nuclear power plants Juliette Jowit and Javier Espinoza Sunday July 30, 2006 The Observer The European heatwave has forced nuclear power plants to reduce or halt production. The weather, blamed for deaths and disruption across much of the continent, has caused dramatic rises in the temperature of rivers used to cool the reactors, raising fears of mass deaths for fish and other wildlife. Spain shut down the Santa Maria de Garona reactor on the River Ebro, one of the country's eight nuclear plants which generate a fifth of its national electricity. Reactors in Germany are reported to have cut output, and others in Germany and France have been given special permits to dump hot water into rivers to avoid power failures. France, where nuclear power provides more than three quarters of electricity, has also imported power to prevent shortages. observer.guardian.co.uk
