All you nuke supporters understand that it's the most heavily subsidized per-KW type of electricity, right? (It's mostly on the back end.)

Even so, without the ability to secure long term contracts for electrical distribution (currently illegal in PA - !!! - part of "deregulation" - thanks Vince!) it is extremely difficult to secure financing to build a nuke plant. Even gas & coal plants face this stupidity from Harrisburg.

There are no magic energy bullets. Our civilization was built on burning stuff, and unless we drastically change the way we live, we'll need to continue to burn stuff, and lots of it.
