Hate the French if you want, but they invested a long time ago (30 yrs?) and are now making so much cheap electricity they are an exporter of their excess energy. They are also now sitting in the driver's seat for having the best nuke plant designs and are beginning to help the US w/ the few new nuke plants that have been put on the drawing boards in the last few years. And their solution for the nuke waste? Instead of burying it in the ground, they RECYCLE it. What a concept! But NOoooooooo, you won't see that kind of thinking in the US where the dollar trumps common sense. Nukes might cost alot initially, but there is a BIG payoff down the road. Too bad the US mentality doesn't have foresight past a 4 or 8 year term.
