You are dead right that nuclear is the future. It is plain and simple. It is interesting that the folks screaming for energy independence are the same ones protesting Nuclear power, one of the cleanest and most economical sources of energy known to mankind. Take a look at France. This country had a stated goal of energy independence 15 or 20 years ago and they went out did it. Something like 80% of France's energy needs are driven by a series of Nuclear plants. We need to do the same.
