Good post, Evan.......

Here's some of the poop regarding the suggested link.....

Nuclear fusion

With China's economy continuing its break-neck
pace of growth, demand for power is expected to
double within the next 15 to 20 years. That demand
cannot be met by coal and oil deposits alone. Not
only are they far from the urban areas, but the
pollution and global warming effects of over-reliance
on them would be horrendous.

With the World Bank estimating that more than
289,000 mainlanders die from unnecessary air
pollution every year, an increase in coal-burning
would only result in further fatalities. Nor can
hydroelectric power meet all of China's needs, even
taking into account the Three Gorges project.

This means China is going to need huge numbers of
new nuclear power plants, perhaps as many as 150
over the next 40 years, costing close to US$60
billion. It is a prospect which has United States
manufacturers licking their lips. Their domestic
market is dead, with no new reactors having been
commissioned for 24 years, and the Chinese market
may offer them one hope of avoiding bankruptcy.

That is the driving force behind the intense efforts to
conclude an accord which will allow Washington to
resume the sale of nuclear technology to China.
Despite US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright's
insistence that some concerns remain to be resolved,
the odds are that these will be ironed out in time for
presidents Jiang and Clinton to sign the agreement in
the White House tomorrow.

Beijing has come a long way to address concerns
over nuclear proliferation. Past help for Iran's
reactor programme has been jettisoned to ease US
sensitivities. The State Department is satisfied China
has also honoured its pledge to stop support for any
Pakistani nuclear facilities not subject to international
inspection. Beijing has even agreed to join the
proliferation-monitoring Zanger Committee and is
about to establish its own regulatory regime.

Concerns inevitably remain about how strictly China
will enforce the new rules, since recent years have
seen unauthorised diversion of nuclear-related
materials. But the best way to address such fears is
through dialogue rather than confrontation.

With some US officials impressed at the sincerity of
the young mainland bureaucrats who are tackling the
task of building a nuclear regulatory regime,
tomorrow's expected agreement will benefit not only
US industry but also China's efforts to show it can
play a responsible role in the international arena.

Remember - it takes 7+ years to build a Nuke powerhouse.......
