The first nuke plants were not perfect... see Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, etc. You want to repeat the mistake of giving up on nuke power? Actually, I kind of do.. at least with those particular designs. I've become convinced that PBR reactors are the way to go given their inherently safer design and far less complexity (more complex systems have more points of potential failure). en.wikipedia.org And I want the fuel reprocessed as they do throughout most of Europe: en.wikipedia.org As for windmills, if people were building them in order to capture tax credits, rather than creating a viable, it stands to reason that the artificially manufactured government inducement (tax credits) is no longer as attractive as before. Gotta have profits and a tax liability for you to need a tax credit. Hawk
