" One of the problems is that we can't even seem to run fairly "safe"  
" reactors very well.

" A friend of mine in college had worked for a civilian nuclear plant  
" and then went into naval nuclear propulsion.

" Things which barely get recorded in the log are considered an  
" emergency in the Navy.

" It worries the hell out of me for us to start building a lot of new  
" plants without first making the easy to manage and training a lot of  
" people who are truly good to run them.

this is what i was thinking of when i said i wanted to see
chimpanzee-proof designs before we went into widespread
implementation.

i see great promise in nuclear power.  i see the power industry as
dangerously undertrained, undersupervised, and unconcerned - perhaps
ignorant - about the scale of danger.
