| Can anyone confirm that there is a nuclear facility of some sort across the channel from us, on the French coast. |

| Bodfish and Burgess must be relieved that they do not have to contend with grovelling to the Government over this one. |

Wondered how long it would be before that connection was made. Is that anything to do with the 'glow in the dark' features for Hove seafront ?

Yea the problem is there is no such thing a Fusion power plant. Maybe one day though.
I think a nuclear power station near brighton would be a good idea, provide lots of jobs for the economy. It could go where the shoreham power station is. |

Moon, how about next to it? Plenty of cooling water there, especially if the sea rises a meter or so |

The context of the Guardian piece mentions conventional Power Stations possibly becoming available as sites. Therefore it is far more likely to be Shoreham ElTee. The Argus has reported damning evidence of UK wide surveys on infant mortality downwind of Incinerators against those upwind of incinerators. The author has contributed some very interesting facts on the discussion itself on the Argus news page. |

Yes it could be Shoreham. But the homes are too close to it.
And the Wind in these areas will effect the pathetic Incinerators and all homes near them.
As for that argus front page "Will this kill you ?" typical helps them sell more papers than ever before. |

Oil and gas WILL run out, espescially with China wanting more and more. I think we have to face reality and start planning. Having worked on a nuclear powered vessel I already glow in the dark! |

| I caught the back end of a report on the radio today. Something that BP suggested to the government back in 2005 when they were planning on shutting down one of their oil fields up Scotland way. It has to do with the production of 'green electricity' and converting the current pipeline, re-using the oil rig and permanently storing the CO gas in the places from which they have extracted oil. The government has been dragging its heels over this and now BP have had to withdraw the proposal as they have run out of time. Nice one Tony, another fond memory. |

The Guardian article does not give a precise date for the nuclear-power station.
Perhaps Roger French will be put in charge of it, as he seems to regard himself as the general Mr Fix-It around here.
If so, he could become our very own Mr Burns!
Probably better to let him have a go at it than let Bodfish have a run of things. |

| Perhaps when it is built, Mike Holland will buy it for a pound and give David Van Day a job handling plutonium or selling burgers to the workers or both. |

At last! something to distinguish the residents from the day trippers.
The former will have green skin from all the fall-out. Whether this obliterates all the work of the city's tatooists, I do not know. But if so, they will simply have to start again -so that is one section of the local economy that will gain. |

I don't, but I probably agree with many of Moon's opinions, and I like to remind you that you have been one of his supporters in many occasions. 
And BTW interesting discussion going on (direct link)
