The blog posting by Joe Romm describes how the following have
rejected the claims of nuclear being a good economic investment:
American Electric Power Co. CEO Michael Morris
Florida Power and Light chairman and CEO Lew Hay
MidAmerican Nuclear Energy Co. (owned by Warren Buffet) Pres. Bill Fehrman
I'm sure these people have examined the figures far more carefully
that I ever could. When these folks start building new nuclear
plants, then I'll start giving serious consideration to your claims
of the economic advantages of nuclear.
