What I Did Missed on Summer Vacation

Go away for a few days to a wireless-less island and nuclear goes boffo in the general interest press. (Clearly this is a sign that I should go on vacation more often.)

Stephen Dubner, author of Freakonomics, looks at the possibility of nuclear power providing the electricity for plug-in hybrids. (Not the first time this week we've heard that idea.)...In its cover story package, The Future of Energy, The Economist identifies nuclear's place at the table....Investor's Business Daily puts the DOE's loan guarantees in context...The New York Times Magazine profiles Duke Power CEO Jim Rogers...The New York Post publishes an Op-Ed by NEI president and CEO Skip Bowman.
