Utility companies have let coal stocks dwindle and are buying less fuel after Beijing froze power prices last year, while allowing the market-set costs producers pay to rise.

OOpsie.

Socialists strike again. Big government works everywhere, doesn't it?

Yes, and we darned-well better keep it away from communist China.

Why not gouge them?

"His advice was stay away from the pool as we walked right next to it"

Was that the diving pool, or the wading pool?

The old SovBloc reactors were in many ways dangerous, just as were our old R or K reactors.

I guess even if 3MI had happened when Cesar was killed, the radioactivity would still kill you today. I do not want to leave that around for my G-G-Grandkids.

We've made enough of a mess already. I shudder to think of the mess Eastern Europe has to face in cleaning up it's nuke mess.
