WSJ / M. CROWLEY 
   Except for Chile, most Latin American nations plan to continue to complete or begin new nuclear power plants. 
  Argentina and Brasil (Rio's Angra dos Reis station pictured) 
 will finish plants abandoned in the 1980s and are considering new ones.   
   Mexico already has one nuclear power station in Veracruz and may build another.
   Earthquake-prone Chile suffered a massive tremor last year and had been considering building a nuke plant despite that...but may now reconsider.
  Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez has just declared a "freeze" on plans to build nukes.
    But... "Argentina is going to continue with its planned nuclear investments," Economy Minister Amado Boudou told the WSJ.
