I would be curious as to what the megawatt production capacity would be. The enviromental limits placed on coal fired units keep the surrounding areas pretty clean so I would be torn between the two. With nuke plants you do have to be concerned with the longterm disposal problems. With coal fired units you have to worry about a natural resource that will eventually run out. What is the lesser of the two evils. I will say, when you see reports of all time high power usage it is time to be proactive and build some more power stations.
