SHIPPINGPORT, Pa. — The last time that I stood on these grounds along the Ohio River in Beaver County was 1976, 19 years after the first commercial nuclear power plant in the United States opened here.

There was a barge in the water off a private island in the Bahamas, and on the last night of the party the fireworks went up from it — a display that runs about $70,000 from a professional outfit. Somebody paid for that barge, and for the second private island where the reception was held, […]
