While you are most likely correct, all of the anti-nuclear comments after your 'exit' from the nuclear industry really smacks of sour grapes.  You are better than that.  Aren't you?

I have said many good things about the industry too. Especially the people in it. The hallmark of any good nuke is being 100% accurate in as few words as possible. In this case I am being a great nuke. Stop grasping at BS that will never happen in this country. Address the issues of cost over runs and the fact that financially nuke isn't competitive on a less than 800 MWe scale.

Pretty broad stroke with that brush. As with all generalizations, there are exceptions to your statement.
