Frank, Karl reminded me of something in his last post. Indeed...60
years is now *minimum* for 20th Century 2nd generation plants. You
stated, and I agreed, that selling wind turbines is more profitable
than almost any thing else. This is true for the big Fortune 500
manufacturers. No argument from me. But what's not arguable either is
that most nuclear plants MAKE far more profits than almost any wind
farm precisely because nuclear power plants have run for so long, are
mostly paid off and are *gold mines* for any utility that owns one.
That's because the ops costs are so low and keep on tick'n for 6
decades.
