TL;DR rose tinted pro-nuke blurb suggests hyuge benefits in pollution reduction if only regulators hadn't made nukes un-economical with all sorts of costly environmental assessments. In ye ol' days when men were men and exchanged fireplace stories in the Bremsstrahlung glow of a warm pile, it was much cheaper but today tree-huggers and obsessive safety nuts drove the costs to the stars.
Urhm... perhaps nuke isn't that cheap after internalizing decommissioning, waste disposal and accident cleanup costs eh!
