It still amazes me that we haven't begun to move forward with more nuclear plants.

Bryan, you seem to keep very informed when it comes to nuclear power...Any guesses on when we might see some being constructed again?

Default There is movement...

I have two blog posts on this in the works. One is for the nuclear construction industry regarding surety and the other is for the surety industry on the nuclear renaissance. The latter I will submit to you for posting here, the former (quite large) will be over on my site.

Having worked in both industries, I have quite a few opinions and observations.

These are companion pieces and should go up at the same time. The big one is at about 99% complete and the smaller (for here) at about 50%. I'm shooting for the first week in September, almost certainly by mid-September.

Excellent!

In addition to my interest from a business perspective, nuclear power initiatives interest me personally. It seems like such a great solution to our energy AND environmental problems.

I'm excited to read your articles and will do my best to try and give you additional exposure on both pieces.

Default Thanks for volunteering...

I could use a knowledgeable proof-reader. I'm sending you a preview as a way to force myself to finish-up. I swear I've moved the same commas three times now, so there has to be some glaring errors I'm not seeing.

In the meantime, you and anyone else interested may want to join the White House and Congress in visiting this:

I'm not your best bet when it comes to proofreading. I have more of math/science oriented brain. My wife on the other hand was a teacher prior to becoming super mom. I'll have her check it over for you!

Looking forward to seeing a copy.


PS - Great resource on your site. I'll be sure to contact my rep!
