From my inbox comes this delicious promotional tidbit:

Conventional wisdom says people who work in nuclear power are smart. Butemployees at one nuclear power company are about to get a whole lot smarter.

Nuclear Management Company (NMC) - operator of six nuclear power plants inthe Midwest - is implementing an enterprise software solution tostrategically manage employee training...to gain new efficiencies in humancapital management and regulatory compliance.

Ok obvious Homer Simpson jokes aside, does it strike anyone else as slightly demeaning that the vendor refers to worker-bees (nuclear or otherwise) as "human capital?" Sounds like a euphemism straight out of Soylent Green.
