Ugh (4.00 / 2)
putting "happily" and "Nigeria (has) announced the intention to build nuclear power" in the same sentence gives me a stomach ache.  They can't keep a refinery running safely, how in hell are they going to keep a nuke up and running without Chernobyl 2?

Can you justify Nukes in the face of wind mill costs?

Agreed (none / 1)
Nuclear can be made safe, but it can also be made very unsafe.

Safe, well regulated nuclear should be promoted, not just nuclear. Safe, well regulated nuclear seems difficult in a number of places, like Nigeria.

I don't fear nukes.  I do fear nukes run by Homer Simpson or religious fruitcakes.
