Plant Boon Doggle

Westinghouse goes boom:  Like Bankrupt.  

Two Problems

  1. The design technology dates from the late 50's or early 60's.  A number of ways of building nuclear devices which will geneate electricity have come along in the meantime.   I have seen this documented on NOVA.  I would supply a link, but the NOVA web site asks so many questions that I can't make my way through it.    But I testify that I have seen it. 
  2. The seconed issue deals with the likely hood that when Southeren Company and Georgia power have to eat the costs of thier bad judgment, the Public Service Commission will allow them to pass the cost along to us.  
  3. God forbid that the lunk heads on the boards and share holders should forgo their new cars, furs, and jewelry just becuase they made stupid mistakes.  We, the small fry, esist to bear any burden pay any price ... etc.
