US eyes boom in nuclear reactors
By Laura Smith-Spark

Almost three decades have passed since the last application was filed to
build a new nuclear reactor in the US. Now, up to 30 are expected in the
next three years.


About time. The article doesn't mention that new technology greatly reduces
the amount of waste from the plants.

This is one case where the French have led the way. We've wasted too much
time not following their lead.

You've gotta admit that the Calvert plant has helped the fishing in the
area!


Well, I liked it a lot better when I could tie up to the wharf and drop
baits right down there. The rips there have been less than great for me
lately.
