    Really glad I live in Illinois where it has the highest share of power generated via Nuclear power. The dirty overlooked secret is that Both Wind and Solar energy only work because they are backed up by natural gas power plants, and it will always be that way until nuclear power plants start being built.

      You really are crazy about power my friend

      Anyway, they could also invest in other renewable energy sources like tidal and all that stuff, since fusion reactors are really close and a welcome improvement over fission
