At the same time the new Westinghouse W-1000"s are proclaimed to be much less vulnerable to  damage due the fact that they require 50% less piping valves and other plumbing. In addition China nearly had the 2008 Olympics cancelled until they shut down 8 nearby coal fired plants, the air was that dirty .Today China has set out to become the world's leading producer of solar energy. Even with the cheap uranium the nukes still can't run with the gas plants. In fact right now US nat gas is so cheap that ports are being built in Louisiana and New Jersey to export gas to Europe.</p></blockquote><p></p>
