Kim W5TIT that's because the environmental wackos are doing thier damndest to fight them, at every level of governement and in every manner of social disobedience... Has nothing to do with "wackos", Clint. Nothing at all. It has everything to do with Board Room decisions for publicly held corporations who have learned thier lesson losses from the construction, start-up, and generation of power from nuclear power plants. They are not cost effective in any way. They've become a pariah on the backs of the companies who have already built and own them. This is why california hasn't built any new power plants in 10 years while experiencing a DOUBLING of population.... resulting in the blackouts they just had. Clint KB5ZHT Sad to say, I think you're totally wrong. The above statement(s) are speculative at best and sensationalistic at worst. Nuclear power is economically unfeasible--proven by the plants already built and generating in this country. Leave alone all the implications of environmental and health impacts. They are just plain bad economics. Kim W5TIT So why hasn't California built any oil, coal, or hydroelectric power platns in the last ten years? I'll tell you. They too are being blocked by the environmentalists. Are they also economically unfeasible? It's unlikely. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |
