Yeah, that cost-analysis thingy gets a little trickier when you start crunching ALL the numbers...


With geothermal steam-driven turbines, instead of nuclear's radioactive-steam driven turbines, there is not cost analysis to compare to the foregoing.


So once again we're left judging off the hip which one is more expensive in the long and short run.


In both scenarios it's nuclear from conception to electrons flowing out to the grid.  What kind of price could you put anyway on 10,000 years of environmental poisoning?  How will future generations write their history books of our era?  Presuming they're even around then to do so?


Radioactivity is a very serious matter that we monkeys don't have business fooling with.  We don't have the right to subject future generations to poisoning.  We should be preemptively guilty of murder.  50,000 tons of highly radioactive waste that won't be safe for people to be around for 10,000 years and we still don't know what to do with it..


And BigOil stockholders want MORE nuclear?  F that.
