    I think it's important to note that the cost is almost irrelevant, since if we expect to have any electric power at all in 50 years, we're going to need wind and solar to generate it somehow.  I doubt we'll be able to fill the bill with nukes alone.  The atmosphere can't take any more carbon and even if it could, even the tight oil will eventually run out.
