Interesting Article about the NRG Energy's New Reactor

It seems that a company is finally going forward with a plan to build 2 nuclear reactors that will be pumping out 2700 megawatts of power in Texas. It is interesting who is doing to work for the thing:

Toshiba, which enhanced its nuclear technology by buying Westinghouse,
will build NRG's new reactors. The vessel heads will be manufactured by Japan
Steel Works, the only forge in the world now capable of casting these huge
structures.

So the Japanese are on the cutting edge for nuclear power? It is odd that we invented the technology and now other more enlightened countries are the innovators in it. I still say that an America that got 70% of its power from nuclear reactors (like France) would make the Oil Sheiks wet their pants. You could also say goodbye to that global warming and put Al Gore out of a job.
