“Fuck electricity at 10cents a watt... I want to be safe & not have to worry about one of these things fucking up & going BOOM! & what's all this shit with pro-nuclear power? All of a sudden, people forget about 3mile island, Chernobyl? Suddenly, because the cost of gas is on the rise mother fuckers forgot about how many people fought for how long to get major nuclear power plants deactivated... that was just, for shits & giggles or something?”
Meanwhile we’ve heard from Aeswiren over the last few days about how nuclear fusion might be the answer. I find myself seeing possibilities in both arguments which leaves me admitting that I simply don’t know enough. Since we're in the process of bidding farewell and good riddance to a president who never learned to pronounce the word “nuclear” (and a wanna-be vice president with the same ignorant incapability) it might be time for us to actually educate ourselves on the subject. To this end Faux Smoke also sent a link to a disturbing story with the angry comment
“Mini nuclear reactors being buried in concrete in commercial efforts, right under our noses? Isn't this a public safety hazard? Shouldn't the public get a say in this shit?”
From the Observer in London
“Nuclear power plants smaller than a garden shed and able to power 20,000 homes will be on sale within five years, say scientists at Los Alamos, the US government laboratory which developed the first atomic bomb.
The miniature reactors will be factory-sealed, contain no weapons-grade material, have no moving parts and will be nearly impossible to steal because they will be encased in concrete and buried underground.
The US government has licensed the technology to Hyperion, a New Mexico-based company which said last week that it has taken its first firm orders and plans to start mass production within five years. 'Our goal is to generate electricity for 10 cents a watt anywhere in the world,' said John Deal, chief executive of Hyperion. 'They will cost approximately $25m [£13m] each. For a community with 10,000 households, that is a very affordable $2,500 per home.”

It's too bad we can't turn bullshit into an energy source.
Meh, don't get me wrong here, I'm not against regulated testing with nuclear fusion, so long as it is done with public safety in mind.. but this set up sounds like it isn't even going to be held up to the standards that have failed in the past.
Seems like I could find myself going to buy a house in 7 years & move into a place with no knowledge about what's getting the town it's electricity... then in another 10 years, something could go wrong & my life investment into a home & place to raise a family goes with an evacuation call.
Also, I'm not saying I know a damned thing about any of this, because I don't... what I got from the history channel, wikipedia & google is all I know about it, so take it for what it is.
The best defence against being either screwed or irradiated by the energy barons is if we're all talking about it.
'We are in talks with developers in the Cayman Islands, Panama and the Bahamas.'
Wow! Please include also Austrian banks.
Is it possible to buy little bit smaller reactor in a shape of flak
jacket?
Yeah, I forgot, with detonator!
It seems that the Earth is becoming The Devil playground.
It always has been.
There's a mystic claim that atomic blast can reach astral body and damage it with its
monstruosly high temperature so the beings are born crippled, physically and psychically, in their next life.
Maybe that's the reason for people being today so obsessed with stupidities, materialism, cretinism, CNN, coca-cola & mercedes etc.
So, we were born crippled?
Ha-ha-ha!
It's not our mistake!
We just pay for stupidities of our fathers and society.
But those were early qualification matches.
Today a lot of reactors are old,
nuclear waste leaking...tap...tap...tap
(from hidden African holes)...
so we should prepare ourselves for the final matches
(especially with these new, motherfuckers' inventions).
"Radioactivity is in the air for you and me...la-la-la"...
