Nuclear power plants work the same as ships, but are not called steam power plants.
Anyway, I say we call this a draw and move on as we won't change each others opinions. ..

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.

Fair enough, but power plants, unlike ships, are called after their fuel source.

I took a harbor cruise today. The United States is a few weeks away from being towed out to it's final resting place. I figured taking a photo of the corpse of the fastest ocean liner that would ever be was worth the effort of taking a few photos of her.
The stacks were all gone....too tall to be remaining on the sunken ship. However they were saved for a tourist attraction some place along the Florida Gulf coast. The fuel that remained was removed. The interior was gutted long ago and then more removal of anything not safe for an ocean that will still be here hundreds of thousands of years after we have blown ourselves up with nukes was removed in the last few months.
