In 2020 before the whole world shut down because of COVID, Nick and I met up for a drink at a bar in Seattle. He was the first nuclear industry insider I talked to about Isodope, and—to my surprise—he told me he was happy to help. It’s not an exaggeration to say that I’ve only been able to make content and write this book because of him. Firstly, because his website whatisnuclear .com has all the information one could ever need about nuclear. Secondly, because he has patiently responded to every annoying/dumb question I’ve asked and fact checked every manuscript I’ve written.
