Me three - I was *very* pro-nuclear. I have experience with the technology from the Navy, where it is pretty effective.

However, any industry that requires special government dispensation to get liability off-loaded is an industry to be wary of.

Just as the banks do not have to pay off bad bets, neither does the nuclear industry. If a nuke problem caused $50 billion in damage - guess what? The liability is capped at far less - $2 billion, I think - the cost of a single plant.

Also, creating waste that is dangerous for thousands of years? How can one mitigate that liability?

You can't.
