Rogue we have one of the largest uranium rescourses on the planet and who sais we wont build fabrication plants???
We are so far up the United States presidents behind that it wouldnt surprise me at all if howard followed in his footsteps.

As i said before this is just a thought,
I know for a fact that the US and AU are becoming very close.
There have been many rumours going around that AU could very well be a terrorrist target.
My original q was could they be related???

What about urban wind turbines, using something like the turby ? Why does it have to be a centralised monolithic project. Electricity requirement is universal and de-centralised, why can't production be more like that? In case you didn't guess, I think nuclear power is a stupid idea for Australia, made by stupid rich men in the hope of slopping up the gravy coming and going. NO NUKES, MAN!

LOL, these projects you talk about are very area specific. how many solar cells do you thinkit would take to power Sydney ? Come on lets be realistic.

How much uranium will it take to power Sydney? Is Sydney even experiencing power shortages?
