U.S. Set to Okay New Nuclear Plants

The nuclear reactors have to over-produce to take up line losses, plus the electric customer is charged for what the reactor PRODUCES, NOT WHAT REACHES HIS HOME.

Your figures may be low-balled. Electric power should be generated if at all possible at POS (Point-of-Service i.e. the home), not sent hundreds of miles through wires, transformers and substations and circuitry.

There's no need for all that. Nuclear is fine for industry's needs but homes it's a fail. Homes need to be transferred over to using DC. AC power throws off electrical & magnetic fields inside the home that RAKES PEOPLE'S NERVES plus causes cancers.

AC Power inside homes is Deadly.
AC Power destroys motors faster too.

Women standing near to dishwashers develop uterine cancer and pelvic inflammatory disease and endometriosis, all painful diseases. AC needs to go.

Short children standing near the same dishwasher puts their eyeballs in the fileds. Infants crawling around closer to wall outlet wiring is also bad, given time. Cell damage is cumulative, leads to cancers (mitochondria breakdown).

Good post Wetdog!

I just don't get it. Some people are never pleased. Look, ya get a new messiah every 4 years, and yet still complain, complain, complain. If the U.S. did stuff copying other countries we'd hafta turn in all our "Leader of the Free World" badges.

That isn't gonna happen. So what if Canadians scrape their leg and walk into a clinic with no money and get treated and medicated anyway. WE CAN'T DO THAT MESS. We have to be Frank Sinatra and gotta be me, you see. Yeah.

Germans, they're all Crazy. We can't do stuff the way crazy Germans do. Don't you see that Lionheart? We have to join the French Foreign Legion and have big men beat us up in the noonday heat so that we have to hop a freighter to Los Angeles and be a kickboxer.

Life has to be hard, for us, otherwise we might fall into slovenly happiness.

Such as for instance 6 weeks paid vacation time per year... to like have quality time with family and friends. Americans don't need Friends => WE HAVE THEM ON TV.

Friend, you don't know a FRACTION of how right you are. Georgia is next to the OCEAN and I know a special way to combine ocean energy with Solar into a Combination System you wouldn't believe in a thousand years.

To say they made a wrong turn is a fraction shadow of the truth.

You recall that solar tower in Arizona right? Hot air rushing out the top? Have any idea how much SUCTION that would be to pull ocean water up through electric generators???

My system is a lot more than that, and I won't reveal it here today, but that's the core gist in a nutshell. Solar drives generators pulling ocean water up against the force of Gravity with a Mighty Joe Young heave.

Plus you deliver cleaned potable drinking water to every nation on Earth; plus Georgia. As opposed to filthying up water as those nuke plants will do.

Each U.S. state that has ocean frontage is Energy Rich, from Maine to Virginia to Florida, plus Florida has double the ocean frontage of most so FL is doubly Rich. Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, TEXAS, then there's California, Oregon and Washington also Rich in Ocean Energy and sunlight.

For the price of those two Georgia nuclear plants being built half the population of the United States would have gobs of energy AND GOBS OF FRESH WATER.

So what we're watching is the Greatest Joke of all Time staying on crude oil and nuclear both obsolete, for years now actually.

Tesla made them obsolete 80 years ago. Floyd Sweet made them obsolete 24 years ago. Riley (me) has made them obsolete multiple times over since 1989, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2008, 2010, 2011. The yolks on us folks.

It's simply that "we" are still waiting for someone else to march on Washington and demand a change.

gotta wonder about the labor "laws" (guidelines?) that protected the workers who built and who will maintain the Chinese plants as well as the plans they have for disposing of the waste. Usually one gets what one pays for...

For sure. Still, the cost differential is astonishing. I think the brunt of it is that in China we see what Westinghouse is paid in a direct deal with China but on our side we see the cost claim by Southern Company which probably includes a lot of financial layers compounded on top of each other, other minor projects shuffeled into the deal, and a fair amount of padding.

"One" gets sleepy employees manning the nuclear consoles because they work two other jobs to make ends meet.

Speaking to the cost => one lightning bolt can carry as much as 500,000 Volts punch. #2, lightning bolts can be attracted to a location for "milking". #3, there are specific areas in the U.S. that gets regular lightning storms (the South, the southern tier states).

And the Cons? If the South was milking storms of their lightning energy the southern states WOULD rise again. That simply cannot ever be allowed to happen. There's too many Blacks down that way. Keeping them dirt Poor makes oops Whites look G-O-O-D. Besides, it is Just & Right because they have too many Bibles down there anyway.

And if they EVAH find out Jesus healed the Blind Man (John Chapter 9) by using a mud paste that saliva~carried his Stem Cells into the man's eyes, proving he was God's son and quite uber divine (and a full copy of Adam), that would just be unacceptable. Keeping Blacks poor also keeps them working 3 jobs >>> also keeping them too dog tired eyeballs to read John Chapter 9. Yep.

That's the ball being run against Southern Blacks. Plus dump some Corexit on em too. They can pray, they can go ta Sunday Meeting and LISTEN, but they cannot be allowed to read.

Nuclear towers are tall, which means phallic, but they are also widened at the top, which makes em a big vagina. Yep. We truly are an advanced civilization to be admired.
