Hadn't heard that. I remain skeptical. Bill McKibben does a pretty nice breakdown on the economics of nuclear power in Eaarth where he argues that once you get rid of the externalities, nuclear isn't much of a saver economically or environmentally. China, on the other hand, is all about externalities so that would be a reason for them to pursue it, particularly for export. Dunno. Got a link? I'm curious.
