Don't get me wrong - renewable energy has good supplemental and regional value. You'll never hear me say it can't be part of the solution. But too many advocates don't accept the limits (nor the economic pitfalls, like the huge negative impact on real estate)

bottom line...nuclear energy is (relatively) the safest and most efficient form of large-scale energy
