You know, this might be the single best thing that could happen to
the industry if it was orchestrated correctly.  If all 433 (or
whatever) plants pulled the switch at exactly the same time and
without making any provisions for replacement power and the results
attributed to the anti-nukes, it might just provide a graphic, if
dark, lesson to the public of what nuclear power means to them and
what the anti-nukes are trying to achieve.

I say, Go for it!
