Nuklear Energy

From a collection of webposts that didn't make it (ex. i reconsidered posting due to ranting/relevance/harshness)

GE claims they can build a reactor in 3 years. I've seen lifetimes range from 30-60 years.

"Nuclear power will figure into our energy strategy"

I definitely think so too. Our energy strategy will be comprehensive and broad, which I don't think is a concept a lot of people understand.

This is Shell's prediction back in 1997:

Its all REALLY old data (I got it from my Solar Cells class), but still an interesting read.But as I travel across the internet reading sweet articles on Solar, Biomass, Wind, etc. a comment I constantly see it "Great, but it won't solve our energy problem." I really hate that. If they're waiting for Cold Fusion, they're gonna be waiting a looooong time...
