[ RadSafe ] Overcoming America's nuclear power phobia

[Flanigan, Floyd]

Are you, perhaps, thinking of the Shoreham Power Plant on Long Island? It never went commercial and was decommissioned. I made a fair hunk of money on that contract but it was sad to see the impact on the local economy. Price per kw hour went a little crazy out there after that.

My flawed recall also then. I thought it was being dismantled before it 
ever came on line -- during a couple of summers when CA was going nuts 
with power shortages.
