Another good reason to have nuclear power (fusion would be perfect, but at least fission) - it works anywhere, anytime...

Everyone wins with fission. Even if we somehow built crappy new reactors and mishandled them so that we got a Three Mile Island incident every once in a while, that's still better than the Three Mile Island equivalent we get here in Oklahoma every few years from the thorium and uranium released by our coal plants (not counting the mercury and VOC's).
