I wouldn't be surprised if it's the end. There are big moves in France to
close down all of their existing reactors. I think the impetus for building
nuclear power plants was a fear that fossil fuels were running out. A
prediction that has proved to be quite pessimistic considering the world's
reserves of oil, gas and coal are at an all time high!
