Thanks!! Scary about the reactors: looks like no security to speak of..no fences, guard posts..anyone could come and go.

I know... they are just being built, but would Duke Power or Southern Company do it this way??

Thanks for the ping, but how can any listing of "the 10 most stunning images for 200" fail to include an image of me?

Sounds like a fun job. Nice pictures too. Too bad they're so pricey.
