People in general are prejudiced about anything nuclear because of the accidents in early 80's. Not many people do research on the current state of the industry before making a statement.<BR/><BR/>It is sad that earth's future is in the hands of such people. Surely, economics might be the only way to make them understand. Like you said, it is not going to be long before oil becomes a rare commodity and price hits through the roof ! And then, we should see some change but hopefully it wont be too late to save the environment. Very true.

People in general get their information about nuclear fission from the Simpsons; the educated ones get it from Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. The long half-lives of the waste products are pretty much unavoidable, but I agree with you, and I think only the price of oil rising will change minds...
