According to the nice graph in the hard copy of the times Iceland currently gets 26.5% of its 2006 electricity from Geothermal and 73.4% from Hydropower...

That sounds good to me- I diss France as much as anybody, but after that damnable Arab Oil Embargo in '73, they did exactly what we should have done- embarked on the Super Phoenix reactor program, and reduced their dependency on those thieves in the middle east.

We should have pulled out all the stops long ago for nuclear, clean coal, geothermal and hydroelectric power.
