Yes, nuclear makes sense

While some of the "enlightened" European countries, which are bailing out their fellow European countries, are backing off an energy future with nuclear power, many other countries are going ahead with the plans that they've laid to energize with the cleanest and most readily available source there is.   It's too bad that the world can't plan to get to the future more uniformly than this.  I may have to eventually become an expat and work in the Middle East.  That'd be weird, but that's where the nuclear industry jobs are moving to.



New countries go nuclear despite Fukushima: UN official


"We expect that this year Vietnam, Bangladesh, United Arab Emirates, Turkey and Belarus will start building their first nuclear power plants," Kwaku Aning, deputy director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), told a forum in New York.

He said Jordan and Saudi Arabia could follow in 2013.
 I'll bet the Saudis will pay relatively well for expert services, wouldn't you?
