They are also in the U.S.A.

Pellets . Uranium oxide . Plutonium ... And the evacuation zone is a

Or is it stay-indoors and don't inhale ... and just a 20 Km radius

"Sunrise" is one of the greatest films ever made. A complete and

The real question is: Can the solutions of the highly intelligent

Upon the answer to that question the fate not only of our

The result is the first generation of Uberwench. Who will no doubt be
moved into the business just as the sons of management formerly. Only in
this case, the moms wont be stupid sexy airheads, so the daughters will
be even more talented rather than the stupid buffoons we all know.
Taxpayers would do well to subsidize fertility clinic services to offer
equal opportunity to poor women, and then be much more generous with the
welfare. The poor women already know sperm donors in the local stud
muffin pool wont support the kids, so its a no brainer most of them
would take up the offer to bear far more talented kids.
And of course, immigrant men, who think they own women, would ship them
back to the old country ASAP. Solving another problem.
Moreover, if Mr. Wright does come along, and does not appreciate the
ability of a woman to produce a talented kid, then he would not be Mr.
Wright.

A nuclear power plant has got to be the most convoluted, complex, Rube
Goldberg plan for boiling goddamn water that anybody ever came up
with.
Or maybe there are a million steps in the nuclear power process
precisely so somebody can turn a profit every single step of the way.
Maybe it is *deliberately* complicated. It would be pretty cynical to
believe that corporations would gouge, rip off, endanger and generally
screw society over for money. Because we all know that they care.

It only makes sense if you have a plan to make terrible weapons from the

We do have a badass volcano that can bury the rest of the country in

It's peaceful . Like Vesuvius . . .
We are also sitting on a gigantic Natural Gas field.
Which costs 1/2 as much to run per thermal unit as Nuclear Power.

It requires massive amounts of fresh water (a very limited resource in
most places) to liberate the methane from the rock. The process isn't
quite as apocalyptic as coal mining, but it still messes up the
environment forever. We need to stop burning things.
LOL!
Won't argue there. Another nice thing about Thorium is that you can
make little reactors for industry and communities that obviate the
need for long lines. However, solar is still a better long term
solution, and fusion is the best fallback for 50 years from now.
If you talking about fracturing? That water can cleaned and be reused
and it will STILL be cheaper that Nuclear. It can also be mined from
the ocean in MONSTER quantities.
The environment will always be screwed up if we don't stop helping 3rd
world countries save there children from disease. We are soon to be
buried in SHXT thanks to saving the world!
Death and war are mother natures population control!
The main problem with solar is that people keep on pointing out the
minor obstacles to FULL TIME solar and making believe those problems
do not have solutions. Except north or south of about 60 degrees N or
S latitude, solar can work pretty well most of the year, and storage
solutions to get you through a winter's night are available.
There's one in Maine.

Yes it does...but it sounds like you missed the PBS TV program about a
couple of prototype power plants that actually "store" their CO2.
Expensive? Sure, but in the long run, probably cheaper than processing
uranium ore into nuclear fuel and then having to store the spent fuel
rods for 50,000 years.

The old yellow Civil Defense units have a small radioactive sample (beta
emitter?) on the side of the case to use as a reality check; i.e., to
see if the G-M counter is functioning.
The Geysers is a complex of 22 geothermal power plants, drawing steam
from more than 350 wells, located in the Mayacamas Mountains 116 km (72
mi) north of San Francisco, California. The largest in the world, the
Geysers has 1517 MW[1] of active installed capacity with an average
production factor of 63 % (955 MW).[2] Calpine Corporation operates and
owns 19 of the 22 active plants in the Geysers and is currently the
United States' largest producer of geothermal energy. Two other plants
are owned jointly by the Northern California Power Agency and the City
of Santa Clara's municipal Electric Utility (now called Silicon Valley
Power). The Bottle Rock Power plant owned by the US Renewables Group has
only recently been reopened.[3] Another plant is under development by
Ram Power Corp [1], formerly Western Geopower, with operation set to
begin in 2010. Since the activities of one geothermal plant affects
those nearby, the consolidation of plant ownership at The Geysers has
been beneficial because the plants operate cooperatively instead of in
their own short-term interest.
