As a electrical engineer I have to agree with Mark.
Trying to replace coal plants with wind power and solar is like trying to start a big diesel truck on a below zero day with a coin cell battery.

You must be on Big Oil's Payroll like me.....   That's the only possible explanation....cause it can't be basic engineering.

Anyone who thinks nuclear power is the answer doesn't know anything about it.

I'm well aware of what power density is and what it means to the grid.
Oh please...you've got no idea what that means.

It's capitalism 101
But you're finally right about that..... it is capitalism 101. And it's the reason someone with your comprehension of the world has the opportunity with his limited skill set to be prosperous enough to afford a lifestyle higher than the vast, vast majority of the world. Even a blind squirrel like yourself finds an acorn..


Ignorance is bliss, isn't it mark?  You're becoming the poster child for it.

But here's something for you to think about - if nuclear power is so god-dammed great, then why aren't there more plants?

You want to know why?  Money. Unfettered capitalism.  The fossil fuel industry.  

People like you think that it's all fine that we're owned by big oil.  How's that working out?  How many more gigatons of CO2 do we need in the atmosphere?  Why the hell would Congress cut their own throat with nuclear power when they get big money from big oil?

LOL - you've been brainwashed by your conservative buds.  You can't even see that the same roadblocks exist for alternative energy as it does for your precious nuclear.

Hilarious.

I know an enormous amount about it.  I know someone who spent 35 - 40 years in national laboratories and nuclear power plants.  The technology is robust, the problem is the how do you dispose of the by products.
