Me, I'm all for returning interesting Nuclear powered cargo ships. In fact, there is renewed interesting in ships like the NS Savannah, with oil prices climbing again, the operating cost of a nuclear fueled ship is actually not much different from that of its petroleum fueled brethren

But nuclear powered naval ships only work because Admiral Hyman G. Rickover embed strict safety standards into the heart of the US Navy nuclear fleet. I'm not sure I'd trust commercial shipping companies to avoid cutting corners on maintenance and safety.
