how much will it cost to build a solar plant that covers 10,000 square miles? Just trying to imagine what such a plant would look like in terms of ground coverage is mind boggling. Not to mention the Environmental Impace Statement for such a project would require a forklift to move.

I'm for more solar, one of the many things I don't understand about Arizona is why there isn't more use of something as simple as passive solar hot water heaters. If I owned rather than rented, I'd be using one now.

Looks to me like nuclear is best currently available form of production. Run by professionals, it is remarkably safe, take a look at our navy's nuclear history.
