RBC Analyst: Low Uranium Prices Could Turn Away Investors

So what. Nuclear power in the US is dead. They say that, even if it was begun today, it would be more than 20 years before an new Nuclear power plant even began startup procedures.

The tree huggers and the NIMBY's have made nuclear power an impossibility in this country. Let's just not even talk about it and get on with the development of Wind power, Solar, Cellulose ethanol and fuel cell technology.

This talk of nuclear power is just obscuring what is really important.

Uranium: Red Hot Yellow Cake

Does anyone remember WPPS, the Washington Public Power System?They went broke back in the 70's due to over regulation and the anti nuc lobby. Also look and the Nuclear Depository. Think about that very good advice "When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing is to stop digging".
With the problems of disposal and current mind set about nuclear power I don't see it ever being a viable power source in the US. The last two days I spent driving across North Dakota on I-94 and I think we must have seen at least 5 wind turbines, all privately owned by farmers. This as I was pulling a small travel trailer and getting 8 mpg with my deisel pickup while heading into a 35 mph headwind.

The answer is all around us, wind, solar, what else do we need?
